Description
Enter the IP Address for the management station.
Enter a mask that will act as a filter to limit access to a range of IP Addresses
based on the IP Address you already entered.
The IP mask 255.255.255.255 would authorize the single station defined by
the IP Address to configure the Access Point. The AP would ignore
commands from any other IP address. In contrast, the IP mask
255.255.255.0 would allow any device that shares the first three octets of
the IP address to configure the AP. For example, if you enter an IP address
of 10.20.30.1 with a 255.255.255.0 subnet mask, any IP address between
10.20.30.1 and 10.20.30.254 will have access to the AP's management
interfaces.
Enter an optional comment, such as the station name.
