Chapter4 Configuring the Access Point for the First Time
Assigning Basic Settings
Custom—The wireless device uses the settings you enter on the Network Interfaces:
Radio-802.11b Settings page. Clicking Custom takes you to the Network Interfaces:
Radio-802.11b Settings page.
Aironet Extensions—Enable this setting if there are only Cisco Aironetwireless devices on your
wireless LAN.
SNMP Community—If your network is using SNMP, enter the SNMP Community name provided
by your network administrator and select the attributes of the SNMP data (also provided by your
network administrator).
Step7 Click Apply to save your settings.
Step8 Click Network Interfaces to browse to the Network Interfaces Summary page.
Step9 Click the radio interface to browse to the Network Interfaces: Radio Status page.
Step10 Click the Settings tab to browse to the Settings page for the radio interface.
Step11 Click Enable to enable the radio.
Step12 Click Apply.
Your wireless device is now running but probably requires additional configuring to conform to your
network’s operational and security requirements. Consult the chapters in this manual for the information
you need to complete the configuration.
Note You can restore 1100 and 1200 series access points to factory defaults by unplugging the power
jack and plugging it back in while holding down the Mode button for a few seconds, or until the
Status LED turns amber.
