SSH Connection to the AP

If you know already have your network deployed and know the IP address of your access point, you can use a remote "SSH" connection to the access point to view the system console over the network.

Note: The default Static IP address is 192.168.1.230. If there is no DHCP server on the network, the AP retains this static IP address at first-time startup. (For more about IP addressing, see “Understanding Dynamic and Static IP Addressing on the AT-TQ2403 Management Software”.)

Using a SSH connection to the access point is similar to "Telnet" in that it gives you remote access to the system console and CLI. SSH has the added advantage of being a secure connection traffic encrypted.

To use a SSH connection, you need to have SSH software installed on your PC (such as PuTTY, which is available at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ )

1.Start your SSH application. (We use PuTTY as an example.)

2.Enter the IP address of access point and click Open.

(If your Domain Name Server is configured to map domain names to IP addresses via DHCP, you can enter the domain name of the AP instead of an IP address.)
