REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL3Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point User Guide Installation GuidelinesInstallation GuidelinesTo install the Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point, follow these steps:Step 1 Plug the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port.Step 2 Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable into an Ethernet port 1, 2, or 3 of your router.Note Ethernet port 4 should not be used.Step 3 Plug the power cord into the power connector.Step 4 Plug the power cord into your power source.Step 5 Press the power toggle switch to the on position.Step 6 Use the 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point LED table below (Table 1) to better understand the Status LED and the Ethernet LEDs located on the top panel of the access point.Note The first time you connect the 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point, the process may take anywhere between 2 and 15 minutes due to an image download. If more than 10 access points are joining, the process could take as long as 60 minutes. When associated, your access point Status LED on the top panel displays a solid blue.Note You do not need to configure any SSIDs for your 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point to connect to your company’s network. The access point receives the company’s SSID when it connects to the company network by way of the Internet. If you have any problems connecting to your company’s network, contact your IT administrator. You can configure your local SSID WLAN for other devices. See “Configuring a Personal SSID on a Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point” for more information.Caution Be careful when handling the 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point. The bottom may be HOT.Tip To manage the heat generated from the access point, maintain air flow between the metal plate of the access point and the surface on which it is placed. A laptop cooling pad (such as ones containing gel or cooling crystals) is a possible option for an access point placed on a flat surface. Another option for managing the heat is to hang the access point on a wall.DSL/CableModemRouter OfficeExtendedAPClient275941
REVIEW DRAFT—CISCO CONFIDENTIAL4Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point User Guide Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point Radio Frequency CoverageNote Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend access points are designed to work behind a router or other gateway device that is using network address translation (NAT). NAT allows a device, such as a router, to act as an agent between the Internet (public) and a personal network (private), thereby enabling an entire group of computers to be represented by a single IP address. In controller software release 6.0, only one Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend access point can be deployed behind a single NAT device.Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point Radio Frequency CoverageTo ensure the best RF coverage for your access point, keep the following in mind: • Position the access point lower than or with the LED side facing your devices.Note Most of the coverage area is located towards the LED side of the access point. • If the access point is in close proximity and above your device, the signal may become skewed.Understanding Cisco Aironet 600 Series OfficeExtend Access Point LEDsYou can use the Status LED on the top panel or the Ethernet LED in the cable bay area to assess the unit status. The table below displays LED status indications for AP600s (Table 1).Ta b l e 1 LED Status Indications for AP600Status LED (Top of Unit)Ethernet LED (Cable Bay Area) DescriptionOff Off Normal bootloader operation.Off Off Linux start.
