B.3 Replacing an AP-4131 with an AP-5131 or AP-5181
The access point’s modified default configuration enables an AP-5131or AP-5181 to not only operate
in a single-cell environment, but also function as a replacement for legacy AP-4131 model access
points. You cannot port an AP-4131’s configuration file to an AP-5131 or AP-5181, but you can
configure an AP-5131 or AP-5181 similarly and provide an improved data rate and feature set.
An AP-4131 has only one LAN port and it is defaulted to DHCP/BOOTP enabled. The AP-5131 and
AP-5181 are optimized for single-cell deployment, so the customer to use either as a ”drop-in”
replacement for an existing AP-4131 deployment. However, to optimally serve as a replacement for
existing AP-4131 deployments, an AP-5131 and AP-5181’s “out-of-box” defaults are now set as
follows:
•
The LAN1 port must default to DHCP client mode
•
The LAN2 port must default to DHCP server mode
•
The WAN port must default to Static mode.
•
The default gateway now defaults to LAN1.
•
The interface parameter has been removed from the Auto Update configuration feature.
•
The WAN interface now has http/telnet/https/ssh connectivity enabled by default.
