D-Link Unified Access Point Administrator’s Guide Using the CLI to View the IP Address The DHCP client on the Unified Access Point is enabled by default. If you connect the access point to a network with a DHCP server, the AP automatically acquires an IP address. To manage the access point by using the Administrator UI, you must enter the IP address of the access point into a Web browser. If a DHCP server on your network assigns an IP address to the access point, and you do not know the IP address, use the following steps to view the IP address of the access point: 1. Using a null-modem cable, connect a VT100/ANSI terminal or a workstation to the console (serial) port. If you attached a PC, Apple, or UNIX workstation, start a terminal-emulation program, such as HyperTerminal or TeraTerm. 2. Configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following settings: - Baud rate: 115200 bps - Data bits: 8 - Parity: none - Stop bit: 1 - Flow control: none 3. Press the return key, and a login prompt should appear. The login name is admin. The default password is admin. After a successful login, the screen shows the (Access Point Name)# prompt. 4. At the login prompt, enter get management. Information similar to the following prints to the screen:. 30 © 2001-2008 D-Link Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
Configuring the Ethernet Interface 3 Installing the Access Point The default Ethernet interface settings, which include DHCP and VLAN information, might not work for all networks. This section describes how to change the default settings. By default, the DHCP client on the D-Link Access Point automatically broadcasts requests for network information. If you want to use a static IP address, you must disable the DHCP client and manually configure the IP address and other network information. The management VLAN is VLAN 1 by default. This VLAN is also the default untagged VLAN. If you already have a management VLAN configured on your network with a different VLAN ID, you must change the VLAN ID of the management VLAN on the access point. Using the Web UI to configure Ethernet Settings The Ethernet interface is the interface that is connected to your LAN. To set network information for the access point by using the Web interface, click Ethernet Settings. Figure 5. LAN Interface Configuration Table 7 describes the fields and configuration options on the Ethernet Settings page. Table 7. Ethernet Settings Field Description DNS Name Enter the DNS name (host name) for the access point in the text box. The DNS name has the following requirements: Maximum of 20 characters Only letters, numbers and dashes Must start with a letter and end with either a letter or a number.
