If your Access Point receives an IP address from a DHCP server, use IPSU to find
its IP address. Run IPSU from a computer on the same network as the Access
Point. Follow these steps to find the Access Point's IP address:
When the utility window opens, make sure Get IP addr is selected in the Function
box.
Type the Access Point's MAC address in the Device MAC ID field. The Access
Point's MAC address is printed on the label on the bottom of the unit. It should
contain six pairs of hexadecimal digits. Your Access Point's MAC address might
look like the following example:
004096xxxxxx
The MAC address field is not case-sensitive.
Click Get IP Address.
When the Access Point's IP address appears in the IP Address field, write it down.
If IPSU reports that the IP address is 10.0.0.1, the default IP address, then the
Access Point did not receive a DHCP-assigned IP address. Steps for assigning an
IP address are included in the "Default IP Address" section in Chapter 3 of the
Cisco Aironet Access Point Software Configuration Guide.
To check the IP address, browse to the Access Point's browser-based management
pages. Open an Internet browser.
Type or paste the Access Point's IP address in the browser's location or address
field. (If you are using Netscape, the field is labeled Netsite or Location; if you
are using Microsoft Explorer, the field is labeled Address.)
Press Enter. The Access Point's home page appears.
