USING GWN7610 AS STANDALONE ACCESS POINT

The GWN7610 can be used in Standalone mode, where it can act as Master Access Point Controller or in
Slave mode and managed by another GWN7600 Master.
This section will describe how to use and configure the GWN7610 in standalone mode.

Connect to GWN7610 Default Wi-Fi Network

GWN7610 can be used as standalone access point out of box, or after factory reset with Wi-Fi enabled by
default.
After powering the GWN7610 and connecting it to the network, GWN7610 will broadcast a default SSID
based on its MAC address GWN[MAC's last 6 digits] and a random password.
Note that GWN7610's default SSID and password information are printed on the MAC tag of the unit as
shown on the below figure.

Using GWN7610 as Master Access Point Controller

Master Mode allows a GWN7600 to act as an Access Point Controller managing other GWN7610 access
points. This will allow users adding other access points under one controller and managing them in an easy
and a centralized way.
Master/Slave mode is helpful with large installations that needs more coverage area zones with the same
controller.
