Chapter 1. Getting Started
Note:
FTP is disabled by default for security reasons. Use SFTP instead. FTP server is not installed
by default. You can install it from software package
ftpd
. See User’s and Developer’s Guide for
information about installing software components.
Tip:
If enabled, use the integrated FTP client on the Internet Explorer (type ftp://root:buffy@wrap-
ip-address/ in the address bar).
•
Bluetooth OBEX (Object Push and File Transfer Profiles) to/from directory
/tmp/obex
in Ac-
cess Server or Access Point.
•
NFS (mount an NFS share from a remote computer as a part of Access Server’s or Access
Point’s file system).
•
SSHFS (mount an Access Server or Access Point directory over SSH as a part of any other
Linux host file system).
To download and install SSHFS, visit http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html.
•
CIFS (mount a Common Internet File System share from a remote computer as a part of Access
Server’s or Access Point’s file system). A CIFS client, available in a separate software packet
cifs-client
, is required. See User’s and Developer’s Guide for information about installing
software components.
•
USB memory dongle (see User’s and Developer’s Guide for more information.
•
Xmodem/Ymodem/Zmodem (use
rz/rx/rb/sz/sx/sb
commands from the management con-
sole). You can install these commands from software package
rzsz
. See User’s and Devel-
oper’s Guide for more information about installing software components.
Note:
The management console is not available for Access Point, only for Access Server.
1.4. Introduction to Configuration
When Access Server or Access Point is installed and powered up for the first time, the default
configuration settings are being used. With these settings, the unit automatically configures its
network settings assuming that it is connected to a LAN network with a DHCP server running.
Additionally, the unit also uses Zero Configuration Networking (also known as Automatic Pri-
vate IP Addressing) to connect to the 169.254.x.x network, which can be used if the network has
no DHCP server.
After booting up, the only Bluetooth profiles enabled are the Object Push and File Transfer Pro-
files, used to send files to/from Access Server.
More Bluetooth profiles can be enabled, and most of Access Server and Access Point settings can
be configured by using the
setup
application. It has a WWW interface at http://wrap-ip/setup
but it can also be run at the command line.
Note:
The default username is
root
and the default password is
buffy
.
1.5. Using the Setup WWW Interface
The easiest way to change Access Server or Access Point settings is to use the WWW interface.
Accessing the WWW interface is instructed in Section 1.2.
A typical WWW configuration page is shown in Figure 1-9 (This page can be found at
