DESCRIPTION
Click this to deploy the WAP5605 as a DHCP client in the network.
When you enable this, the WAP5605 gets its IP address from the network's DHCP server
(for example, your ISP or router). Users connected to the WAP5605 in AP mode can now
access the network (i.e., the Internet if the IP address is given by the ISP or a router
with Internet access).
The Web Configurator may no longer be accessible unless you know the IP address
assigned by the DHCP server to the WAP5605. Otherwise, you need to reset the
WAP5605 to be able to access the Web Configurator again (see
for details on how to reset the WAP5605).
Also when you select this, you cannot enter an IP address for your WAP5605 in the field
below.
Click this if you want to specify the IP address of your WAP5605. Or if your ISP or
network administrator gave you a static IP address to access the network or the
Internet.
Type the IP address in dotted decimal notation. If you change the IP address you will
have to log in again with the new IP address.
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.
Enter a gateway IP address (if your ISP or network administrator gave you one) in this
field.
Select From ISP if your ISP or router to which the WAP5605 connects dynamically
assigns DNS server information (and the WAP5605's WAN IP address). The field to the
right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's
IP address in the field to the right.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
