6. Connect to the Web
User Interface
The stand-alone APs offer a web-based management interface for the
configuration of all the unit’s features.
You can make initial configuration changes by connecting a PC directly to the AP’s
ETH1 RJ-45 port. The AP has a default management IP address of 192.168.2.1 and a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. You must set your PC IP address to be on the same
subnet as the AP (that is, the PC and AP addresses must both start 192.168.2.x).
Log in to the web interface using the default settings:
◆Login Name — root
◆Password — admin123
For more information on stand-alone AP configuration using the web interface,
refer to the Management Guide.
