3.1 Logging In to the AP Through the Console Port
This section describes how to log in to the AP through the console port. After logging in to the
AP, you can configure the AP using commands.
1.
Connect a PC to the AP using a console cable. Connect the RJ45 connector to the console
port of the AP and the DB9 connector to the serial port of a PC.
NOTE
If your PC's operating system provides terminal simulation software (like HyperTerminal in
Windows 2000/XP), you do not need to install additional terminal simulation software. If the PC
runs on an operating system without terminal simulation software (like Windows 7), install third-
party terminal simulation software on the PC by referring to user manual or online help.
2.
Start the terminal simulation software, create a connection, select a serial port, and set
communication parameters as follows.
l
Bits per second (B): 9600
l
Data bits (B): 8
l
Parity (P): None
l
Stop bits (S): 1
l
Flow control (F): None
3.
Press
Enter
until the command line prompt of the user view, such as <Enterprise AP>, is
displayed. Then, you enter the user configuration interface. You can run commands to
configure the AP. Enter a question mark (?) whenever you need help.
3.2 Logging In to the AP Using STelnet
This section describes how to log in to the AP using STelnet. After logging in to the AP, you
can configure the AP using commands.
Before logging in to the device through STelnet, complete the following tasks:
l
Starting the device properly
l
Preparing network cables used to connect device interfaces.
NOTE
Ensuring that the IP address 169.254.1.1 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0 have been configured on VLANIF
1 of the device before the delivery, and GE0/0/0 has been added to VLAN 1 by default.
l
Configuring the PC's IP address and subnet mask. The IP address must be on the network
segment 169.254.0.0/16 but cannot be 169.254.1.1. 169.254.1.100 is recommended. The
subnet mask is 255.255.0.0.
NOTE
Before the device is delivered, the STelnet service has been configured on the device. The STelnet interface
number is 22, and the default user name and password are respectively
admin
and
.
Use the SSH client software to log in to the device through STelnet from a terminal. The
third-party software PuTTY is used as an example here.
