This VLAN is also the default untagged VLAN. If you already have a
management VLAN configured on your network with a different VLAN ID, you
must change the VLAN ID of the management VLAN on the WAP device.
STEP 3 Configure these IPv4 settings:
•Connection Type—By default, the DHCP client on the Cisco WAP551 and
WAP561 Access Point automatically broadcasts requests for network
information. If you want to use a static IP address, you must disable the DHCP
client and manually configure the IP address and other network information.
Select one of these values from the list:
-DHCP—The WAP device acquires its IP addres s from a DHCP s erver on
the LAN.
-Static IP—You manually configure the IPv4 address. The IPv4 address
should be in a form similar to xxx.xxx.xxx .xxx (192.0.2.10).
•Static IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway—If you elected to
assign a static IP address, enter the IP information.
•Domain Name Servers—Select an option from the list:
-Dynamic—The WAP device acquires DNS server addresses from a
DHCP server on the LAN.
-Manual—You manually configure one or more DNS server addresses.
Enter up to two IP addresses in t he text boxes.
STEP 4 Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
NOTE After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and
restarted. When this happens, the WAP device may lose connectivity. We
recommend that you change WAP device settings when a loss of connectivity will
least affect your wireless clients.
