Configuration Steps Required for the GW-AP54SAG
This section describes configuration required for the GW-AP54SAG before it can work prop-
erly in your network.
First, it is assumed that in your LAN environment, a separate DHCP server will be available
for assigning dynamic (and often private) IP addresses to requesting DHCP clients. This
means that the GW-AP54SAG normally will not need to enable the DHCP server function
.
Additionally, since you need to perform various configuration changes to the GW-AP54SAG,
including the SSID, Channel number, the WEP key, …, etc., it is necessary to associate a fixed
IP address with the GW-AP54SAG, which is why the GW-AP54SAG will be shipped with a
factory default private IP address of
192.168.1.100
(and a network mask of 255.255.255.0).
Therefore, during the system installation time, you need to build an isolated environment with
the GW-AP54SAG and a PC, and then perform the following steps:
