  • Page 21: Basic Access Point Configuration

    Installation Guide 3 Basic Access Point Configuration To set an Access Point basic configuration and access user interface management functions: 1. The Access Point’s IP address is optimally provided using DHCP or from bottom of the Access Point itself (if available). A zero config IP address can also be derived if DHCP resources are unavailable or the IP address is not listed on the bottom of the unit.
  • Page 22 AP-7522 Access Point If this is the first time the interface has been accessed, a screen displays prompting for the Access Point’s country code. 6. Select the Country Code specific to this Access Point’s deployment location. Selecting the correct country is central to legal operation. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal strength that can be transmitted.
  • Page 23 Installation Guide 7. Expand the Configuration menu item and select Basic. 8. Set the following Basic Configuration Settings for this Access Point: • AP Name - Provide an AP Name used as this Access Point’s network identifier. If setting this Access Point as a Virtual Controller, each Access Point managed by this Virtual Controller lists this Access Point’s AP Name as its own.
  • Page 24 AP-7522 Access Point Points (NTP clients) periodically synchronize their clock with a master clock (an NTP server). For example, an Access Point resets its clock to 07:04:59 upon reading a time of 07:04:59 from its designated NTP server. 9. Select Apply to implement the updates.
  • Page 25 Installation Guide • PPPoE Settings - Optionally enable Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) on the WAN network. If PPPoE is enabled, provide the required Auth Type, Login Name and Login Password. Server Name and Default Gateway are optional settings. PPP is a data-link protocol for dialup connections allowing an Access Point to use a broadband modem (DSL, cable modem, etc.) for access to high-speed data and broadband networks.
  • Page 26 AP-7522 Access Point Refer to the LAN IP Interface Settings field, and add a VLAN and Static IP as required for enabling DHCP (within the Configuration > Services screen) for client IP address requests and ensuring routable traffic. 14. Select Apply to commit the updates to the selected Access Point’s configuration.
  • Page 27 Installation Guide In respect to the Radio Settings, the professional installer should be aware of the following: The above example includes a field for setting the antenna NOTE gain. This setting is only available for external antenna Access Points and does not display for internal antenna Access Points.
  • Page 28 AP-7522 Access Point 16. To create a new WLAN, select + Add from the upper, left-hand side of the Wireless LAN field. 17. Set the following configuration attributes for the new WLAN: • Name - Provide a unique name for the WLAN as its network identifier. This is a required setting.
  • Page 29 Installation Guide If selecting Secure-PSK, enter a WPA2 Key to password protect the WLAN. Define whether the key is entered in ASCII or HEX characters. Selecting Show to expose the key is not recommended. If selecting Secure-802.1x, provide an IP address (or hostname) and a shared secret (password) used to access an external RADIUS server resource designated to validate user requests to the Access Point’s WLAN resources.
  • Page 30 AP-7522 Access Point 20. Select Enable DHCP Server to ensure the Access Point can provision IP addresses to requesting clients over the specified interface.
