26.1 Overview

This chapter describes how you can configure the management IP address and VLAN settings of your
NWA1000 Series.
The Internet Protocol (IP) address identifies a device on a network. Every networking device (including
computers, servers, routers, printers, etc.) needs an IP address to communicate across the network.
These networking devices are also known as hosts.
Figure 126 IP Setup
The figure above illustrates one possible setup of your NWA1000 Series. The gateway IP address is
192.168.1.1 and the managed IP address of the NWA1000 Series is 192.168.1.2 (default), but if the
NWA1000 Series is assigned an IP address by a DHCP server, the default (192.168.1.2) will not be used.
The gateway and the NWA1000 Series must belong in the same IP subnet to be able to communicate
with each other.
