Configuring Your Access Points to Use Avalanche
4
The enabler is already installed on access points with software release 1.94
or later. You can install the agent and the console on the same PC.
Avalanche uses a hierarchical file system organized into software packages
and software collections:
• Software packages are groups of files for an application that resides on
the device.
• Software collections are logical groups of software packages.
For more information about software packages and software collections,
see the Wavelink Avalanche documentation and online help. Or, visit the
Wavelink web site at www.wavelink.com.
The first time an access point (with software release 1.94) is assigned an IP
address, either manually or from a DHCP server, it attempts to connect to
the Avalanche Management Console through the Avalanche Agent. Once
it finds the agent, it automatically configures the console IP address.
However, if you upgrade an existing access point to software release 1.94
or later, you may need to configure your access points to use Avalanche.
Note: The access points that you want Avalanche to configure and manage
must be on the same subnet as the agent.
To configure your access points to use Avalanche
1 Start the web browser application.
2 In the Address field (Internet Explorer) or in the Location field
(Netscape Communicator), enter the access point IP address, and press
Enter. The Access Point Login screen appears.
3 Enter a user name and a password, and then click Login. The TCP/IP
Settings screen appears.
4 From the main menu, click Network Management. The Network
Management page appears.
