Configuring Device Setup Settings
To configure the device setup settings of the access point, follow these steps:
Click Setup > Basic Setup.
In the Device Setup section, enter the following information:
•
Host Name—Enter the host name of the access point.
You can use the host name to access the web-based configuration utility
through the network if a record of the host name exists in your DNS server.
The access point publishes the host name to your DNS server if you
configured the access point to acquire its IP address from a DHCP server.
Follow your organization's policy when assigning this name.
The default name is Cisco.
•
Device Name—Enter the device name for the access point.
This name is identification purposes only. Unique, memorable names are
helpful, especially if you are deploying multiple access points on the same
network. This name helps you identify the access point after you log in.
The default name is WAP4410N.
Click Save.

Click Setup > Basic Setup.

to the access point.

the IPv4 network settings of the access point using a DHCP server on your
