You can now access the access point for initial configuration (see Initial log-in process
on page 26).
Initial log-in process
During the initial log-in process, the access point presents its Day Zero page. You must
define a local device password that lets you access the local browser UI access point.
You also must define a new WiFi network name (SSID) and associated WiFi passphrase
(WiFi password).
After you complete the initial-log-in process and attempt to log in to the local browser
UI, the access point no longer presents the Day Zero page but displays the regular login
page that allows you to enter your local device password.
For more information about the initial log-in process, see one of the following sections:
