2Meru Access Point Installation Guide © 2012 Meru Networks, Inc. AP1014i Overview AP1014i OverviewThe AP1014i is designed for use with small-scale wireless environments and telecommuter applica-tions. When VPN access is configured in the corporate System Director interface, users can deploy the AP1014i remotely and have a quick and secure wireless connection to the corporate network.Deployments that expect high-user-density or are intended to support voice or video streaming are not recommended for the AP1014i. The AP supports a maximum of 10 simultaneous wireless clients.See Figure 5 for an overview of the AP1014i’s access ports.Figure 5: AP1014i PortsThe AP1014i utilizes a single 2x2 802.11b/g/n wireless radio with an internal antenna.Note:Although the AP1014i was designed for remote VPN use, it can be connected directly to the corporate network and configured in the same manner as any other AP if remote use is not required.Note:The WPS button on the AP1014i is not currently supported.Warning! The Reset button on the AP1014i will erase all configured settings on the device, including VPN communication configuration.
Configuring the AP1014i © 2012 Meru Networks, Inc. Installing AP1014i 3Configuring the AP1014iAs mentioned above, prior to deploying the AP1014i remotely for VPN access, it must be configured to securely connect to the corporate controller. Instructions for configuring VPN access can be found in the "Configuring VPN Connections" section in the "Configuring Security" chapter of the Syst em Direct or Conf igurat ion Guide.Installing the AP1014iThe AP1014i is designed to be mounted on either a horizontal flat surface (such as a desktop or table) or a vertical surface (such as a wall). Note that if you are wall-mounting the AP, you will need to purchase two screws separately. Simply screw them into the wall placed slightly more than three inches apart (use the mounting template provided on the Quick Install document in the box) and slide the AP into place on them. The mounting diagram is shown in Figure 6.Figure 6: AP1014i Mounting HolesFor horizontal surface deployments, simply place the AP on the desired surface and follow the instruc-tions below.Connect and Activate the APFollow the instructions below when deploying the AP for remote access. Note that prior to doing so, the AP should be configured locally (when using it for VPN access) by the system administrator.Refer to Figure 5 as a guide for connections.Note:Be sure to mount the AP in such a manner that the Meru Net wor ks logo on the top of it is right-side up in order to ensure that the AP is properly secured. In this configuration, the ethernet ports will be facing upwards.80mm (3.15 inches)
4Meru Access Point Installation Guide © 2012 Meru Networks, Inc. Using the LAN Ports 1. Connect the ethernet cable to the port labeled F1 and a PoE device (either a PoE-capable switch or a PoE injector). The device will power on automatically. The connection indicator lights at the top of each network port should turn on when the AP is activated.2. If desired, connect another corporate device (such as a VoIP phone) to the port labeled F2 (LAN Port in Figure 5). Note that this port can be used for any devices that need to be connected to the corporate network; it acts just as a network port at the office would. (The port should be colored yellow to distinguish it from the WAN Port.)3. Connect your wireless station to the wireless network (the SSID is the same as the corporate SSID configured at your office).Using the LAN PortsAs noted in the previous section, the AP1014i implements several Ethernet (LAN) ports that can operate in the same manner as ports connected directly to the corporate network (when VPN is configured). These ports can be used to connect corporate devices (such as a VoIP phone, desktop computer, etc.) or you can connect a hub or switch to it and connect several devices at once to the corporate network.The LAN ports on the AP1014i will show up in the System Director WebUI under the Ethernet link (Configuration > Wired > Ethernet). These ports can also be managed via user-configured Port Profiles, as detailed in the "Configuring Network Interfaces" chapter of the Meru Syst em Direct or Conf igurat ion Guide (under "Configuring Port Profiles").The following features are not currently supported on secondary Ethernet ports:Bridge mode with VLANDynamic VLAN in tunneled modeMAC TransparencyAP1014i LED CodesThe AP1014i has a single LED that indicates its status. If you want to change the appearance of the LED, follow these steps:Note:A maximum of 128 devices can be supported by a single LAN port on the AP1014i.Note:Do not connect all Ethernet ports on the AP to a single switch; this can create a traffic loop between the various interfaces. This is not a supported configuration on the AP1014i.
