5Configure the Mesh AP using AP Configurator

5.1Overview of AP Configurator

One of the main features of the PLANET Mesh Network Management Tools is its ability to configure the Mesh AP remotely. In stead of the Web-Based Configuration page, user can use the application software that designed specifically for the configuration of the Mesh AP, namely the AP Configurator.

The AP Configurator utilizes the SNMP protocol to connect the user’s terminal with the AP over the network. The AP Configurator supports all SNMP version 1, 2C and 3 over UDP. User may read and write the settings of the hardware through the SNMP agent running on the device.

The figure below illustrates the screenshot of the AP Configurator:
