immediately following the physical AP installation. In most cases, it is strongly recommended
that the initial configuration be performed prior to installation.
Refer to Figure 6 on page 20 for the connections required to configure an AP. If the AP is being
installed with a 3G wireless modem for backhaul, refer to “Initial AP Network Configuration for
3G Wireless Backhaul Modem” on page 34. If the AP is being installed with any other type of
customer-provided IP backhaul, refer to “Initial AP Network Configuration for Customer
Backhaul Modem” on page 34.
Initial AP Network Configuration for 3G Wireless Backhaul
Modem
When activating the 3G wireless modem, a static IP address is required from the wireless carrier.
The LAN side of the 3G modem can be configured to support the default IP network settings of
the AP. This avoids the need to change these default settings in the AP. After the AP is installed,
a connection to the AP can be established using the IP address of the 3G modem and the AP can
be configured remotely. Refer to the
3G Modem Configuration Guide
for additional information.
Initial AP Network Configuration for Customer Backhaul
Modem
The default IP network settings for the AP must be changed to allow connection to the AP over
the customer’s IP network. To make these changes, perform the following steps:
1.
Log into the AP as described in “Login” on page 34.
2.
After successfully logging into the AP, select “Admin” in the upper right corner of the
screen.
3.
From the Admin menu, select the Network submenu.
4.
Follow the instructions in “Network Submenu” on page 53 to make the required changes
to the IP address, Netmask, and Default Router.
5.
When you have completed the changes, be sure to click on the
Save
button and then click
on the
Reboot Access Point
button.
6.
After these changes are made and the customer’s firewall and routers have been properly
configured, the AP can be remotely configured.
For additional support with AP configuration, contact Trilliant Customer Support (see “How to
Contact Trilliant” on page iii).
