Using the IP Address for Remote Access
Point Management
With your Access Point 530, you can use the access point's IP address to
manage the access point from any PC that is on the same subnet as the access
point. You can use either a Telnet or Secure Shell (SSH) session, or a standard
Web browser to manage the access point.

To provide more security for the access point, management interfaces that are
not required can be disabled. This includes the Web, Telnet, and SSH, as well
as the serial console port. You can also disable the ability to reset the access
point using the Clear and Reset buttons. For more information, see the
Management and Configuration Guide.
