Rebooting An Access Point Via The Management Tool - Proxim Harmony 8550 Manual

Once the network computer has restarted, open a web browser and type the IP address of
the Access Point in the Location or Address field and hit <Enter> to access the man-
agement tool.
Static IP Address
The Access Point also accepts a static IP address. You may manually configure the IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway used by the Access Point within the Harmony
Access Point Management tool. See Chapter 5 for details.
Note:
You must use either the Access Point's default IP address or a dynamically
assigned IP address to access the management tool before you can configure
the Access Point with a static IP address.

Rebooting an Access Point Via the Management Tool

Follow these steps to reboot an Access Point remotely via the Harmony Access Point
Management tool:
1. Open the Harmony Access Management tool, as described earlier in this chapter.
2. Click the <Reboot> button.
The Access Point will be reset automatically and the management tool will report: "The
Access Point is being rebooted..."
3. Wait approximately 15 seconds and then select one of the buttons at the top of the
screen (i.e., <Configure>, <Status>, or <Statistics>) to reset the Harmony Access
Point Management tool.
Note:
If the Access Point is configured for Flexible mode and you do not have an AP
Controller on the network, mobile clients will be unable to communicate with
the Access Point until it switches to Independent mode (which should occur
approximately one minute following the reboot).
