About the RAP-2WG
The Aruba RAP-2WG is part of a comprehensive wireless network solution. This
device works in conjunction with other Aruba products, such as Aruba Mobility
Controllers, and provides the following capabilities:
zRemote Access Point (RAP)
zProtocol-independent networking functionality
zIEEE 802.11 b/g operation as a wireless Access Point
zCentral management, configuration, and upgrade through an Aruba Mobility
Controller
zWireless Transceiver
RAP-2WG Overview
Rear View
Figure 1 Rear View
10/100Base-T Ethernet Ports
The RAP-2WG has two 10/100Base-T (RJ-45) Ethernet ports for wired network
connectivity.
zE0: Uplink port
zE1: LAN port
DC IN (Power Socket)
The RAP-2WG power adapter (included) connects to the DC IN port. The RAP-2WG
does not have an On/Off switch. The device turns on when the power adapter is
attached and plugged into a power outlet. The device turns off when you disconnect
the power adapter from the power source (outlet).
Antenna
The antenna allows client devices to connect to the RAP-2WG wirelessly.

Reset Button
To reset the RAP-2WG, insert a small, narrow object, such as a pin or paperclip, into
the hole indicated in Figure 3 and press the button for 5 seconds, while powering on
the RAP-2WG. This returns the RAP-2WG to factory defaults.
Wall Mount Slots
The wall mount slots illustrated in Figure 3 accommodate mounting the RAP-2WG
on the wall or other vertical surfaces. Mounting hardware is not included.
RAP-2WG Installation
Tabletop Mounting
The RAP-2WG is equipped with four rubber feet designed to support the device on a
flat surface without damaging it. Install the RAP-2WG on a flat level surface.
Wall Mounting
The wall mount slots, on the back of the RAP-2WG, accommodate wall mounting or
mounting to other vertical surfaces.
1. Install two screws in the wall or vertical surface. If attaching the device to
drywall, Aruba recommends using appropriate wall anchors (not included).
2. Align the AP mounting slots to capture the surface screws (see Figure 4).

Connecting the Required Cables
The RAP-2WG must be connected to a network device that has access to the
Internet, such as a router or modem. To complete the installation of the RAP-2WG:
1. Connect one end of the provided RJ-45 cable to port E0 on the RAP-2WG.
2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to a free RJ-45 port on your modem or
router.
3. Attach the provided power adapter to the DC IN port on the RAP-2WG.
4. Connect the other end of the power adapter to a power outlet.
The RAP-2WG is now powered on. To verify this, ensure that the PWR LED is solid
green.
Verifying Successful Installation
Once the RAP-2WG’s PWR LED has come up, the device will take 2 to 3 minutes to
complete the boot cycle. Once the boot cycle is complete, you can connect to your
company or corporate network.
Provisioning at Home
If your IT administrator instructed you to provision your RAP-2WG, complete the
following steps after the RAP-2WG has been powered.
1. Connect one end of a second RJ-45 cable to port E1 on the RAP-2WG and the
other end to your computer.
2. Open a web browser and navigate to any URL.
3. An Aruba web page will appear (see Figure 5), requesting the IP address of the
master controller. Enter the IP address provided to you by your IT
administrator.
The RAP-2WG will connect to the designated master controller and download the
necessary provisioning information. When the RAP-2WG comes back up, it is ready
to use.
