GLOSSARY

IP Address

IP Address (short for Internet Protocol) is simply four numbers (like 192.168.1.250) separated by periods that is used to identify a particular device within a network, just as an employee number is used to identify an individual person within a com- pany.

The IP Address can either be automatically assigned by the wireless network or manually assigned by the user. The auto- matically assigned IP Address is available via your AP software, or you can assign your own IP Address (pages 12 to 19) and see if it’s accepted by the network.

Gateway IP Address

The Gateway IP Address is only necessary if your network has outside access, as in a WAN (Wide Area Network). Because of the security issues involved in outside access, the Gateway IP Address is only available from your Network Administrator or Service Provider.

SSID

SSID (Service Set ID) is the name of the wireless Access Point you choose for your MS860 to communicate with. Available via your AP software.

7.After reboot, the settings should be changed to new settings.

RF Channel

There are 11 potential RF (Radio Frequency) Channels, num- bered 1 through 11, to communicate over, and your MS860 and the nearest Access Point will use one of them. Because the MS860 and the AP will sort this out for themselves, it is not necessary for the user to specify a channel, however, a default RF Channel is provided by the MS860 as a starting point.
