Professional Access Point

Administrator Guide

Provide Administrator Password and Wireless Network Name

Field

Description

Administrator Password

Enter a new administrator password. The characters you enter will be dis-

 

played as "" characters to prevent others from seeing your password as you

 

type.

 

The Administrator password must be an alphanumeric string of up to 8 charac-

 

ters. Do not use special characters or spaces.

 

As an immediate first step in securing your wireless network, USRobot-

 

ics recommends that you change the administrator password from the

 

default.

 

 

Administrator Password (again)

Re-enter the new password to confirm that you typed it as you intended.

 

 

Wireless Network Name (SSID)

Enter a name for the wireless network. This name will apply to all access points

 

on this network. As you add more access points, they will share this SSID.

 

The Service Set Identifier (SSID) must be an alphanumeric string of up to 32

 

characters

 

Note: If you are connected as a wireless client to the access point that you are

 

administering, resetting the SSID will cause you to lose connectivity to the

 

access point. You will need to reconnect using the new SSID.

 

 

Note

The Professional Access Point is not designed for multiple, simultaneous configuration changes. If more than one administrator is making changes to the configuration at the same time, all access points in the cluster will stay synchronized, but there is no guarantee that all changes specified by all of the administrators will be applied.
