— Skip this step, if you are installing the IAP in United States,

Japan or Israel.

Connecting the IAP to a Power Source

Based on the type of the power source that is used, perform one of the following steps to connect the IAP to the
power source:



PoE switch— Connect the ENET port of the IAP to the appropriate port on the PoE switch.



PoE midspan— Connect the ENET port of IAP to the appropriate port on the PoE midspan.



AC-to-DC power adapter— Connect the 12V DC power jack socket to the AC to DC power adapter.

Assigning an IP Address to the IAP

The IAP needs an IP address for network connectivity. When you connect the IAP to a network, the IAP receives
an IP address from a DHCP server.

To get an IP address for an IAP, perform the following steps:

1. Connect the ENET port of IAP to a switch or router using an Ethernet cable. Ensure that the DHCP service is

enabled on the network.

2. Connect the IAP to a power source. The IAP receives an IP address provided by the switch or router.

Connecting to a Provisioning Wi-Fi Network

To connect to a provisioning Wi-Fi network:

1. Connect a wireless enabled client to a provisioning Wi-Fi network. The provisioning network is called

instant.

2. In the Microsoft Windows operating system, click the wireless network connection icon in the system tray.

The

Wireless Network Connection

window appears.

3. Click on the

instant

network and click

Connect.

4. In the Mac operating system, click the

AirPort

icon. A list of available Wi-Fi networks is displayed.

5. Click on the

instant

network.

NOTE: After the IAP starts up, the IAP tries to connect to the DHCP server if the static IP configuration is not available. If DHCP

times out, a default IP within 169.254.x.y/16 subnet is configured on the IAP. The DHCP client still continues to run so that when the

DHCP service recovers, the IAP gets a valid IP address and reboots. In addition, you can manually assign a static IP without the

support of DHCP, after the IAP comes up with the 169.254.x.y/16 subnet.

NOTE: While connecting to the provisioning Wi-Fi network, ensure that the client is not connected to any wired network.
