the correct country is central to legally operating the access point. Each country has its own
regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic emissions and the maximum RF signal strength
that can be transmitted. To ensure compliance with national and local laws, be sure to set the
country accurately. CLI and MIB users cannot configure their access point until a two character
country code (for example, United Kingdom - gb) is set. Refer to
“Country Codes” on page 574
for
the two-character country codes.
NOTE
The System Name and Country are also configurable within the System Settings screen. Refer to
“Configuring System Settings” on page 68
(if necessary) to set a system location and admin email address for
the access point or to view other default settings.
NOTE
Certain SKUs of access points are country-specific, such as US and Israel. The AP comes with the
country code set for these countries and cannot be changed by the user.

Optionally enter the IP address of the server used to provide system time to the access point within
the
Time Server
field.
NOTE
DNS names are not supported as a valid IP address. The user is required to enter a numerical IP
address.
Once the IP address is entered, the access point’s
Network Time Protocol (NTP)
functionality is
engaged automatically. Refer to the access point
Product Reference Guide
for information on defining
alternate time servers and setting a synchronization interval for the access point to adjust its
displayed time. Refer to
“Configuring Network Time Protocol (NTP)” on page 98
(if necessary) for
information on setting alternate time servers and setting a synchronization interval for the access
point to adjust its displayed time.

Click the
WAN
tab to set a minimum set of parameters for using the WAN interface.
a
Select the
Enable WAN Interface
checkbox to enable a connection between the access point and a
larger network or outside world through the WAN port. Disable this option to effectively isolate
the access point’s WAN connection. No connections to a larger network or the Internet will be
possible. MUs cannot communicate beyond the configured subnets.
b
Select the
This Interface is a DHCP Client
checkbox to enable DHCP for the access point’s WAN
connection. This is useful, if the larger corporate network or
Internet Service Provider (ISP)
uses
DHCP. DHCP is a protocol that includes mechanisms for IP address allocation and delivery of
host-specific configuration parameters from a DHCP server to a host. Some of these parameters
are IP address, network mask, and gateway.
NOTE
Extreme Networks recommends that the WAN and LAN ports should not both be configured as DHCP
clients.
c
Specify an
IP address
for the access point’s WAN connection. An IP address uses a series of four
numbers expressed in dot notation, for example, 190.188.12.1 (no DNS names supported).
