Chapter 1: Getting Started

Using a Telnet Session

5. Click Login. The TCP/IP Settings screen appears.

Your web browser session is established.

Note

Although you can use several different methods to manage the access point remotely, this manual assumes you are using a web browser.

After you have configured the IP address, you can configure, manage, and troubleshoot the access point from a remote location using a telnet session.

Only one session can be active with the access point at a time. If you session terminates abruptly or a new login screen appears, someone else may have accessed the access point. Also, your session terminates if you do not use it for 15 minutes.

To use a telnet session

1.Determine the IP address of the access point. If a DHCP server assigned the IP address, you must get the IP address from the DHCP server.
