Configuration Notes
■
For a new access point installation, the default WLAN Service Area (ESSID) is 3Com and no
security is set. Unless it detects a DHCP server on the network, the access point uses Auto IP
to assign an IP address of the form 169.254.2.1.
■
Use the 3Com Wireless Infrastructure Device Manager to locate 3Com Wireless LAN devices
and launch their configurations. When installing the device manager, make sure the computer
is connected to the same network as the device to be configured. The default login is “admin”
and there is no password. After installing and launching the device manager, select the device
to be configured from network tree and click Configure to launch the configuration Web
interface. Refer to the Access Point 7250 User Guide (included on the installation CD) for
detailed information and instructions on locating and configuring the access point.
■
The first time you connect to this device, you will need to specify how the device obtains its
IP address; for most installations we recommend that you select “Obtain the setting
automatically from a DHCP server.” For more information, see your network administrator.
■
Once you have logged onto the device, we strongly recommend changing the default
password. You can find password settings in the administration menu.
■
If you experience difficulty with the installation, see the Troubleshooting section of the
User Guide.
