Description
The computer used to configure the first access point must be connected to
the access point by a serial cable or an Ethernet cable.
After initial configuration and launch of the first access point on your new
wireless network, you can make subsequent configuration changes through
the Administration Web pages using a wireless connection to the internal
network. For wireless connection to the access point, your administration
device will need Wi-Fi capability similar to that of any wireless client:
Portable or built-in Wi-Fi client adapter that supports one or more of the IEEE
802.11 modes in which you plan to run the access point.
Wireless client software configured to associate with the UAP.
Configuration and administration of the UAP is provided through a Web-based
user interface hosted on the access point. We recommend using one of the
following supported Web browsers to access the access point Administration
Web pages:
