Automatic Discovery of InstantWave Products
A powerful automatic-discovery algorithm is built into the InstantWave Network Management System. With a simple click on the “Discovery” icon, all InstantWave APs, WWBs, and WECs within the subnet will be discovered. This discovery feature is based on the following techniques:
•DHCP Client and IP recovery: InstantWave APs, WWBs, and WECs have a built-in DHCP client and will request an IP address from a DHCP server so that SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) can be further applied. Should there be a failure of the DHCP server; when it recovers, the AP, WWB, and WEC will automatically negotiate for a new IP address
•Auto-IP: When the AP, WWB, or WEC cannot get an IP address from a DHCP server, they will auto-assign an IP address of 169.254.x.x , and a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
A Windows OS PC originally configured as a DHCP client will follow the same algorithm to assign itself an IP address in the same subnet. Users may need to renew the IP settings (see the following section), otherwise Windows may continue to use the previous IP address instead of executing the Auto-IP procedure
