Symptoms and Solutions

AP Has Incorrect IP Address

1.Default IP Address Assignment mode is dynamic (DHCP). If you do not have a DHCP server on your network, the default IP Address is 10.0.0.1. If you have more than one unintialized AP connected to the network, they will all have the same default IP address and you will not be able to communicate with them (due to an IP address conflict). In this case, assign each AP a static IP address via the serial cable or turn off all units but one and change the IP address using ScanTool one at a time.

2.The AP only contacts a DHCP server during boot-up. If your network’s DHCP server is not available while the AP is booting, the device will retain the last IP Address it had. Reboot the AP once your DHCP server is on-line again or use the ScanTool to find the Access Point’s current IP address.

3.To find the unit’s current IP address if using DHCP, open the IP Client Table in the DHCP Server and match the Access Point’s IP address to its MAC address (found on the product label). Alternatively, use ScanTool to identify an Access Point’s current IP address.

4.Once you have the current IP address, use the HTTP or CLI Interface to change the unit’s IP settings, if necessary.

5.If you use static IP Address assignments, and cannot access the unit over Ethernet, use the Initializing the IP Address using CLI procedure. Once the IP Address is set, you can use the Ethernet Interface to complete configuration.
