TQ6000 GEN2 Access Points User's Guide
Assigning a Dynamic IP Address from a DHCP Server
44
This section explains how to activate the DHCP client so that the access
point receives its IP address from a DHCP server on your network. The
unit uses the address to communicate with devices on your network, such
as management workstations, syslog servers, and RADIUS servers. The
access point can have only one IP address.
If your network does not have a DHCP server or you prefer to manually
assign it an IP address, refer to "Assigning a Static IPv4 Address to the
Access Point" on page 47.
Note
Changing the IP address of the access point might interrupt your
management session. To resume managing the device, start
another session using the access point's new IP address.
Note
The default setting for the DHCP client is enabled. You only need to
perform this procedure if you disabled the client and assigned the
device a static IP address, but now want to reactivate the client.
To configure the access point to receive its IP address from a DHCP
server, perform the following procedure:
1. Select Settings > System from the main menu.
2. Select Network from the sub-menu.
3. Select DHCP from the Connection Type pull-down menu. The options
in the window change. See Figure 9.
