Chapter 1 – Introduction Thank you for choosing the Gemtek Systems Wi-Fi ‘Hot-Spot in the Box’ Access Point model P-360. With this product the Gemtek Systems want to deliver a carrier class 11Mb WLAN Access Point specially designed for single-cell hot-spot applications with an integrated Public Access Controllers (model G-6000/G-4000).
Internet access. P-360 is also called “A Hot-spot in a box”, because it incorporates all necessary AAA features for single-cell hot-spots. P-360 typically works as a router, whereas P-320 is used as a layer2 bridge between wireless clients and an Ethernet backbone.

Attaching the Access Point to the Wall 1. Place the Access Point in the desired location. Use the wall mounting assembly kit available with P-360 Access Point. Follow the instructions: • Attach the wall mounting clamp to the wall with the spring latch to the upper side using the four enclosed screws.
Find Your New P-360! To find your new P-360 HiaB Access Point you will need to connect the AP to the same logical network as your PC. The standard IP address of the P-360 in factory default status is 192.168.2.2. To...
192.168.2.2 If ping replays, you can access the P-360 from this PC. Otherwise there is a problem accessing the P- 360 in default status from this PC. You should either change the IP address of your PC or of the P- 360.
The configuration manager provides the user interface to configure and manage HiaB Access Point (P-360). When the Access Point is installed, access the user interface using the standard Web browser such as Internet Explorer 6 or Netscape Navigator 6 (Java and JavaScript enabled).

Device Status The device status page shows some information about the HiaB P-360 itself, its loaded services, its operating mode and position in your network and the data traffic on the wireless interface. System Status Figure 7 – Device Status (1) Version is the current version of the firmware.
Figure 9 – Device Status (3) Device Mode shows the P-360 operating mode (AP or AP Router). Hostname shows the name of the P-360 in the network used for statistic routines. Ethernet Interface IP shows IP address of the Ethernet interface of the P-360.

Tx Errors are errors while transmitting data. Rx Data are data volume received successfully. Rx Errors are errors while transmitting data. Collisions are number of data packet collisions. Gemtek Systems Page 20...
Select AP mode, if you want to allow mobile stations to access your wired network. General Configuration Settings On the general settings page you can specify information about the name and location of your P-360. Figure 12 -- General Configuration Settings Host Name is the name under which the device will appear for example in the AP Search tool.
All of the parameters above on the general configuration setting page are required! Network Configuration Settings On the network configuration settings page you can modify the IP settings for the P-360 and the default gateway. Figure 13 – Network Configuration Settings...

In this case all LAN IP addresses are hidden to the WAN network behind the routers WAN IP address. The P-360 in AP router mode on the other side of the wireless network will forward the data packets using his own WAN IP address to the wired (Ethernet) network it is connected to.
In Access Point mode SSID must be made known to all mobile clients, or they have to use the “auto connect to any wireless network” function in their WLAN card. If you are running more than one P-360 and want to enable the roaming function, please use the same SSID in all access points.
5 pairs for 64-Bit (e.g. 00:AC:01:35:FF) 13 pairs for 128-Bit (e.g. 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:AA:BB:CC). Also select the active key radio button next to appropriate key. The encryption key must also be entered into the WLAN card configuration of the mobile clients. Gemtek Systems Page 25...
Advanced Settings Setting up the P-360 advanced settings requires advanced knowledge of the TCP/IP network structure and functionalities. It is recommended that only skilled network administrators should use these settings. ACL Settings In the ACL Settings page you can specify default access policy for wireless or Ethernet network devices.
LAN and WAN and is supposed to avoid forbidden intrusion to your local network. The firewall rules are divided into Input and Output (in AP router operating mode) or Prerouting (in AP mode) rules to assign special procedures to a certain data transmission direction. Gemtek Systems Page 27...

So please check the rules right position after defining or modifying them. To specify a new firewall rule please click Add New Rule and choose type of rule, it’s source, destination parameters. Gemtek Systems Page 28...

Protocol – network protocol, which affects the rule. Can be specified as one of TCP/UDP/ICMP or “any”. ICMP Type – if ICMP network protocol is selected, then the appropriate protocol type can be chosen. Leave the Source/Destination IP and Netmasks fields empty if you want to specify it as “any”. Gemtek Systems Page 29...
If there is more than one route specified for one destination, the metric value shows the priority, how the router will try the routes. The metric value indexes the number of gateways between sender and destination. Gemtek Systems Page 30...
The DHCP server settings specify, which IP addresses are assigned to the DHCP clients in the LAN. For a P-380 in AP router mode, these are the mobile wireless stations or P-380 devices in client router mode with DHCP client function enabled. Gemtek Systems Page 31...
In the Port Forwarding Settings main page you can add, modify or delete forwarding rules. Figure 245 -- Port Forwarding Settings To specify a new port forwarding rule please click Add New Rule and insert the port type, the local port, the destination IP address and the destination: Gemtek Systems Page 32...
Figure 256 – Add Port Forwarding Rule In this example, all requests to the P-360 on port 25 will be redirected to the IP address 192.168.2.28 on port 1445. Port forwarding is a kind of reverse function to IP masquerading. Hence this function can take effect only when NAT is enabled! Please refer to your firewall settings to check if the port forwarding settings are suitable.
Using this menu you can perform system tests, configure SNMP settings, upgrade firmware, restart or reset HiaB Access Point into factory defaults. Clients All clients currently connected to the P-360 Access Point is listed in the Connected Clients table. The clients are listed by its MAC address. Figure 335 – Connected Clients Click the Refresh button if you want to renew the connected clients statistic.
Read-Only and Read-Write communities can be specified here. The Community strings are used for SNMP authentication purposes. It is possible to allow or deny IP address groups from accessing the P-360 using SNMP. To add new Read-Only or Read-Write community, click the Add New Rule next to appropriate table.

IP address and netmask combination of 0.0.0.0/32 means “ANY” IP address can connect. Access can be controlled for one specified IP (for example 192.168.2.100/32) or by a range (for example 192.168.2.0/24 for IP numbers 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.2.254). xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx Gemtek Systems Page 41...

The first statistics appear as two points, five minutes after the device has been restarted. A normal view is acquired 10 minutes after the P-360 reboots. First click the Show button to view the initial TX/RX statistics in the browser window. Click the Refresh button instead of the Show button to get updated TX/RX statistics.
Upgrade This function is used to update the current firmware version to a new one. If there is need to change the firmware, a valid firmware file must be selected first by clicking the Browse button. Gemtek Systems Page 44...
After selecting a valid firmware version file, click the Upgrade button to proceed. The upgrade process begins. Do not switch off and do not disconnect P-360 from power supply during firmware update process because the device could be damaged. Best use Ethernet connection (not wireless) for firmware update process.
Please note that even the password will be set back to the factory default! The device is restarted. All previous device configuration settings will be erased and the factory default values applied. You can find the factory default values in the applendix. Gemtek Systems Page 46...
