3.2 Quick Start
By default, an access point is preset with SSID: PEPWAVE_XXXX, where XXXX is the last 4
hex digits of the LAN MAC Address of the unit.
The default access point bridges the Wi-Fi interface to the Ethernet port, with both
encryption and VLAN tagging disabled.
To access the backbone network connected via the Ethernet port of the unit, establish a
session at the Wi-Fi interface with a Wi-Fi client. After establishing a Wi-Fi client session,
information about the established Wi-Fi session appears at the Web Administration Interface
of APU device, under the section Information-> Wireless.
