IP:

Note: These SNMP related settings are only useful for network management and remote configuration (APMS). For proper wireless connections, these settings don’t have to be changed.

From the IP card (Figure 12) you may view or modify the Access Point’s TCP/IP address, configure its subnet mask, or add a default gateway (see the note below).

Note: An AP will directly transfer SNMP respond packets (confirmation packets) to an APMS PC if it is within the same LAN (the same subnet mask). If an SNMP respond packet from an AP is destined for an APMS PC on another LAN, then the SNMP respond packet needs to go through a router-gateway. The default gateway is the path to that router. If you set the correct default gateway, then you can use an APMS manager (i.e. a PC running APMS) physically located in a different subnet to manage this AP.

Default Gateway

Enter the default gateway address here (if required)

 

 

If you wish to change the defaults, set each AP to its new IP address before introducing it to the open network. All APs within the same network must have the same TCP/IP subnet address.
