Step 3. Type the "

Access Point MAC Address

" from the label on the bottom of the 

Access Point, type the “

Config IP

” address from your system administrator, 

and then click “

OK

”. 

 

 

Step 4. Open a MS-DOS Prompt window and type 

ping

 followed by the IP address 

used in the 

IP Config

. The IP address is assigned to the Access Point . The 

Access Point’s replies to the 

ping 

confirm that the IP address was assigned 

correctly. 

 

 

Step 5. If you get a ping reply, then the IP address has been temporarily set. In order 

to set it permanently you need to run SNMP Manager without powering off 
the Access Point.
