λConfiguring airPoint-PRO

a)Configuring airPoint-PRO connected to Ethernet LAN

Connect the airPoint-PRO to your normal LAN. Make sure the power to the airPoint-PRO is ON.

Note 1: By Default airPoint-PRO runs a DHCP Client. So the IP Address will be acquired from the DHCP Server.

Note 2: In case if the DHCP Server is not available then airPoint-PRO will time out the search for DHCP Server after 1 minute and use the last obtain IP address. So in that case the airPoint-PRO can be searchable only after 1 min. This situation will arrive if you give the static IP address to your PC and connect airPoint-PRO directly to the PC with DHCP Client running in it.

If your LAN doesn't have a DHCP server but instead you run the PCs with Static IPs then you need to assign a Temporary IP Address to the PC to connect to the airPoint- PRO. (See Appendix A to assign a Temporary IP address.)
