3e–527A3 Wireless Access Point – 8 Port
Operating Mode
This screen allows you to set the operating mode to either Wireless
Access Point/Bridge or Gateway/Bridge mode. You only need to visit
this page only if you will be changing from Access Point to Gateway
mode, if you want to change your submode to IPv6, or if you want to
configure the wireless cards.
Note that if you change modes from AP to Gateway, your configura-
tion is not lost. However, if you switch from IPv6 to non IPv6 submode,
all previously entered information will be reset to factory settings.
Submode
If you select the Use IPv6 Mode, the AP will be configured to support
IPv6 addresses on the WAN and LAN ports. In IPv6 mode, the AP can be
managed and pass traffic using IPv6 addresses. Since IPv6 is relatively
new in the industry, some networking functions that cannot support IPv6
are disabled such as DHCP server and WPA-802.1x
When in IPv6 mode, the AP can be accessed from the management
port using IP address 192.168.15.1. This is the default IP address and it
can not be changed. The WAN port can not be accessed using IPv4 ad-
dresses.
If Use IPv6 mode is selected as a submode then you will need to enter
a IPv6 address under System Configuration—WAN and LAN screens.
