To configure a Point to MultiPoint bridged environment:
1. Click Point to MultiPoint for the WAP11 used in LAN 1. No MAC
Address binding is needed.
2. Set the Access Points in LAN 2 and LAN 3 to Point to Point, and
have them look for the MAC Address of the Access Point in LAN 1.
Only one of the Access Points must be in Point to MultiPoint mode. For
all other bridged Access Points, select the Point to Point option, and enter
the Remote MAC Address of the Access Point set to Point to MultiPoint.
Click the Apply button to store the information. A new dialog box will appear.
Click the Yes button to accept the changes.

Wireless Network Access Point
THE IP SETTING TAB
The IP settings for the Wireless Network Access Point are made from this tab.
• IP Address. This IP address must be unique to your network. We suggest
you use the default IP address of 192.168.1.250. As this is a private IP
address, there is no need to purchase a separate IP address from your serv-
ice provider. Verify the address and click the Apply button to save changes.
• IP Mask. Your Access Point's Subnet Mask must be the same as your
Ethernet network. Verify this is correct and click the Apply button to set it.
• DHCP Setting. Check the box next to DHCP Enable to allow it to obtain
a dynamic IP address from a DHCP server. You may also choose how the
WAP11 dynamically obtains an IP address—either Wireless or Ethernet.
• IP Filtering. For security, click the check box to enable IP filtering, which
allows IP packets only through the Access Point.
• Gateway. This setting only appears when the DHCP client is enabled; it
indicates the status of the gateway and is not user-adjustable.
Note: Configuring the IP address here allows you to use the SNMP
Configuration Utility software. It is not necessary to make any changes to the
IP address if you are not planning on using the SNMP Configuration Utility.
