3 Components and Power Supply
3.6.2.1 Default configuration
The router has an embedded access point, the default configuration looks like a template for a Wi-Fi configuration. It
includes all the necessary elements to deploy a very basic Wi-Fi network. To activate this configuration, all you need
to do is enter the enable command at the WNMS feature menu.
This configuration will provide two Wi-Fi networks: test_ssid_1 and test_ssid_2. The first one is placed in the 2.4 GHz
band and the second one in the 5 GHz band. The password for both networks matches their ssid name.
The DHCP server configuration is divided into two parts. The first one focuses on giving an address to the embedded
access point, while the second strives to give an address to the Wi-Fi clients that connect to the access point.
A bridge is installed to separate the traffic belonging to Wi-Fi clients from access point communications. Two VLANs
are configured for this purpose.
The communication with the embedded access point is carried out via a separate port in the switch interface. This
port is named "wlan" or listed as port 5.
The router's default configuration establishes the following access IP and mask address:
• IP address: 192.168.0.1
• IP mask: 255.255.255.0
The embedded access point's default configuration establishes the following IP and mask address:
• IP address: DHCP client with no.192.168.100.150/24 as default
Note
Only the RS1800w models have an embedded access point.
Note
Be careful when modifying the template configuration, as one subtle change could easily ruin the base
configuration and prevent it from working. Thus, make sure you understand the template before apply-
ing any changes.
Note
Some devices leave the factory with customized settings. This personalization means your router's de-
fault configuration (and that of the embedded access point, where applicable) may be different from the
one shown above.
3.7 Data connections
The RS1800 series router has the following data connections.
3.7.1 4-port Ethernet switch connections
The RS1800 series router incorporates a 4-port 10/100/1000 Base-T switch with automatic MDI/MDIX to connect to
a local area network (LAN).
Please pay careful attention to the labeling to avoid mistaking this switch for other types of ports:
