Installing the Hardware
Perform the following steps to install the Wireless Access Point (AP).
1. If applicable, insert the Ethernet cable into the RJ45 connector (labeled "WAN") on the
AP to connect to a hub, router, cable or DSL modem.
2. Next, apply power to the AP by plugging in the power adapter supplied with the
evaluation kit. This completes the hardware portion of the installation.
3. The next step is to add the AP into the wireless network. There are three configuration
options of the AP:
l "Enroll" the AP in the network (Multimedia Mode only). Using the Network Management
application on a wireless active PC node to enroll the AP into the network.
l The AP provides an SNMPv1 agent and the support for the standard IEEE 802.11 MIB and
proprietary extensions (MIB files are included in the evaluation CD). These objects can be
read and configured via a standard SNMP MIB Browser.
l Alternatively, read the below "Installing the AP Manager" to manually configure the AP
Access.
