Cisco Small Business WAP551 and WAP561 Wireless-N Access Point with PoE 5DRAFT -- CISCO CONFIDENTIALTo mount the WAP device to a wall or ceiling:STEP 1Determine where you want to mount the device. Verify that the surface is smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy. STEP 2Drill two pilot holes into the surface x.xx inches (xx mm) apart for your Cisco WAP device. STEP 3Insert a screw into each hole, leaving a gap between the surface and the base of the screw head.STEP 4Place the upper slots of the bracket over the screws, adjust the screws accordingly, and slide the bracket down until the screws fit snugly into the slots.STEP 5Using the bracket as a template, drill two more holes for the lower screws.STEP 6Insert a screw into each lower hole.STEP 7Slide the WAP device into the bracket, placing the cables or cords through the break-out tab found in the back of the bracket. Connecting the Cisco WAP551 and WAP561 Wireless-N Access PointsThese instructions assume that your will be using PoE to power your WAP device. If PoE is not provided, power adaptors are sold separately; see Where to Go From Here, page 11. To connect the device to the network:STEP 1Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of a switch or a router. STEP 2Connect the other end of the network Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of the wireless access point. After installation, all lights should be active. Refer to Verifying the Hardware Installation, page 6 for details about the different lights on each switch. 4

Cisco Small Business WAP551 and WAP561 Wireless-N Access Point with PoE 7DRAFT -- CISCO CONFIDENTIALGetting Started with the ConfigurationTo configure the wireless access points, follow these steps to access the Wizard and then the web-based configuration utility from your computer.STEP 1Connect the wireless access point to the same network (IP subnet) as your computer. The factory default IP address configuration of the access points is DHCP. Make sure your DHCP server is running and can be reached. See “Incorrect IP Address” on page 9 for troubleshooting information, or if you do not have a DHCP server. STEP 2Locate the IP address of the wireless access point. a. The wireless access points can be accessed and managed by Cisco Small Business network tools and services including the Cisco FindIT Network Discovery Utility that enables you to automatically discover all supported Cisco Small Business devices in the same local network segment as your computer. You can get a snapshot view of each device or launch the product configuration utility to view and configure the settings. For more information, see www.cisco.com/go/findit.b. The wireless access points are Bonjour-enabled and automatically broadcast their services and listen for services being advertised by other Bonjour-enabled devices. If you have a Bonjour-enabled browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer with a Bonjour plug-in, or the Apple Mac Safari browser, you can find the wireless access point on your local network without knowing its IP address. You can download the complete Bonjour for Internet Explorer browser from Apple’s Web site by visiting http://www.apple.com/bonjour/. c. Locate the IP address assigned by your DHCP server by accessing your router/DHCP Server; see your DHCP server instructions for information. STEP 3Launch a web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.STEP 4In the Address field enter the default DHCP address and press the Enter key.STEP 5Enter the default user name of cisco and password of cisco in the User Name and Password fields.STEP 6Click Login. The Wireless Access Point Setup Wizard appears.6

For more advanced configurations, see the Administration Guide. A link to the Administration Guide is found in “Where to Go From Here” on page 11.Congratulations, you can now start using your wireless access point.Suggested Next StepsIn case of an error while installing, try the following troubleshooting procedures:TroubleshootingIf you cannot display the configuration utility, you can test the ability of the computer to communicate with the device by using ping. To use ping on a computer running Windows:STEP 1Verify that the Cisco WAP551 or WAP561 is powered on and the lights indicate the appropriate links.STEP 2Locate the device’s IP address. While there are different ways to locate your device’s IP address, this procedure uses Cisco FindIT.d. If you have previously downloaded Cisco FindIT, open Mozilla Firefox and launch Cisco FindIT. For more information on downloading Cisco FindIT, see www.cisco.com/go/findit.e. In the Cisco FindIT display, place your mouse over the device’s name. The device IP address is displayed along with other device information.STEP 3Open a command window by using Start > Run and enter cmd.STEP 4At the Command window prompt enter ping and the device IP address. In this example, we pinged 192.0.2.10. If successful, you should get a reply similar to the following:Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data:Reply from 192.0.2.10: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128If it fails, you should get a reply similar to the following:Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data:Request timed out.7
Cisco Small Business WAP551 and WAP561 Wireless-N Access Point with PoE 9DRAFT -- CISCO CONFIDENTIALPossible Cause of FailureNo Power•Power up the switch and your computer if they are turned off.•If your access point is using PoE, make sure your PoE switch is powered on and the lights indicate that you have a link. See “Verifying the Hardware Installation” on page 6.•Verify that the power button is on; only applicable if you are not using PoE.•Verify that the devices on your network are not plugged into a switchable outlet.Bad Ethernet Connection•Check the state of the indicator lights. See “Verifying the Hardware Installation” on page 6.•Check the connectors of the Ethernet cable to ensure they are firmly plugged into the switch and your computer.•Verify the connected switch has auto-negotiation enabled. The access point and the switch need the same negotiation parameters set. Bad ImageAfter a new firmware installation, if the Power light is flashing quickly, contact system support; see “Where to Go From Here” on page 11.Incorrect IP AddressThe most likely cause of connectivity failure is an incorrect IP address. The Web browser may be pointed to the wrong IP address, or your computer may be configured with an IP address that is not in the same subnet as the device.Because the factory default IP address configuration is DHCP, make sure that your DHCP server is running and can be reached. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP server. You can then query the DHCP server for the new IP address. See Step 2 of “Getting Started with the Configuration” on page 7 for more information on how to find the DHCP address.If the wireless access points do not receive a DHCP response (there is no DHCP server on your network) after 60 seconds, the access points will fallback to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
