System Settings
The system settings pages allow you to change the management access password
and restart the access point.
Administration
Management access to the access point is controlled through a single user name
and password.
To protect access to the management interface, you need to change the default use
name and password as soon as possible. If the user name and password are not
changed, then anyone having access to the access point may be able to
compromise the access point and network security.
Note: If you forget your user name or password, you can press the reset button on the
back of the access point for more than five seconds to reset to the factory
defaults.
Figure 4-6. Administration Password
The displayed items on this page can be described as follows:
• Username – The name of the user. The default is "admin." The user name can be
changed. (Length: 0-16 characters, case sensitive)
• New Password – The password for management access. (Length: 0-16
characters, case sensitive)
• Confirm New Password – Enter the password again for verification.
• Country – Sets the country in which the access point is being used. Some
countries allow the user to set the access point so that it conforms to the local
wireless regulations. This setting ensures that the access point uses only the radio
channels and transmit power levels permitted for that region. It is the user’s
responsibility to set the correct country (the default is “NO_COUNTRY_SET”).
Once a country has been set, the Country setting is no longer displayed on this
page. To change the Country setting, you must reset the access point to its factory
default configuration.
