The LANtools also require a Windows operating system. A web
browser under any operating system provides access to WEBconfig.

Operating access points in managed mode
LANCOM Wireless Routers and LANCOM Access Points can be operated either
as self-sufficient Access Points with their own configuration ("Access Point
mode“) or as components in a WLAN infrastructure, which is controlled from
a central WLAN Controller ("managed mode").
For operation in managed mode the Access Points require firmware of
version 7.22 or higher and a current loader (version 1.86 or higher).

Introducing the LANCOM WLAN Controller
This section introduces your device. We will give you an overview of all status
displays, connections and switches.
While the information in this section is useful for the installation of the
device, it is not absolutely essential. You may therefore skip this sec-
tion for the time being and go straight forward to ’Hardware installa-
tion’.
