3.2 Configuration Options
Once installed and powered, an AP-5131 or AP-5181 can be configured using one of several
connection techniques. Managing the access point includes viewing network statistics and setting
configuration options. The access point requires one of the following connection methods to manage
the network:
• Secure Java-Based WEB UI - (use Sun Microsystems' JRE 1.5 or higher available from Sun's
Web site. Disable Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine if installed). For information on using the
Web UI to set access point default configuration values, see
page 3-5
or chapters 4 through 7 of this guide.
• Command Line Interface (CLI) via Serial, Telnet and SSH. The access point CLI is accessed
through the RS232 port, via Telnet or SSH. The CLI follows the same configuration
conventions as the device user interface with a few documented exceptions. For details on
2-17.
