NXA-WAP200G Wireless Access Point
IP Address Configuration Page
Right out of the box the NXA-WAP200G has been designed to communicate directly with Modero
panels using a Static IP Address of
192.168.1.240
(default). If using a DHCP Addresses, you can
make the necessary changes on this page. This page (FIG. 47) can be accessed by pressing the
IP Address
tab from the bottom row of the Configuration Utility. The fields in the IP Configuration
page are described in the table below.
IP Configuration Page Information
Access Point Name:
This is the name the WAP uses to identify itself to external configuration and IP
Address finding programs.
• The default name is
AP Zone 1
.
• When deploying multiple WAP's this allows you to label each WAP with zone
information within the LAN. It is okay to leave this blank if you are not using
these programs.
Note:
This is not the same as the SSID, as each WAP within the network has
identical SSIDs.
IP Configuration:
These are the IP communication parameters assigned to the WAP200G.
It is recommended that you use a Static IP Address for later access to the
WAP200G Configuration Utility pages.
IP Address Mode
Provides the user with two options:
• Select
Static
if you are using static LAN settings.
• Select
DHCP
to get the LAN settings (IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default
Gateway) from a DHCP server on your network.
Default IP Address
IP Address of your Access Point. This IP Address is used for the purposes of:
• Providing a Static IP Address within a network using static LAN settings.
• Providing a constant address for connecting to the WAP's configuration utility
while DHCP is being used within LAN.
Note:
The IP Address must be unique within your LAN in order to avoid routing
conflicts.
When multiple WAP's are deployed within a LAN, it is recommended to change
the IP Address of each WAP (even if DHCP is used). The IP Address is used to
access the configuration utilities embedded within each WAP.
As a result, when deploying multiple WAP's into a local area network, the first
WAP should remain with the default IP Address of 192.168.1.240, change the
second WAP's IP Address to 192.168.1.241, third WAP to 192.168.1.242, etc.
This enables you to log into each AP from anywhere within the local area
network.
If the IP Address for each WAP is not changed, you will not be able to log into
each AP using the network and it will be necessary to physically connect
directly to each WAP in order to make changes. Connect your PC directly to
the WAP using CAT5 Ethernet cable and position the slide switch to PC in
order to log into each individual WAP.
Note:
If you change the IP Address and forget what was used, you can press
the
Reset
button on the back of the physical WAP200G to restore the factory
default settings.
• The factory default is
192.168.1.240
.
Default Subnet Mask
When Static LAN settings are used, enter the Subnet Mask for the local
network communicating with the NXA-WAP200G.
• The factory default is
255.255.255.0
.
Default Gateway
When Static LAN settings are used, enter the IP Address of your networks’
Gateway, such as a router, in the Gateway field. This is the IP Address of the
gateway that connects to the Internet.
• The factory default is
192
.
