BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON NETWORKING
Computers are assigned IP addresses by network operators, which have two methods available,
static or dynamic IP addressing. The user of this document will need to understand how IP
addressing is done at their particular location.
All Cyclone radio products (Access Point Modules, and Backhaul Modules)
have the default IP address of 169.254.1.1. For a computer to talk to Cyclone, as it comes from
the factory, either of the following conditions must be met:
•
If the computer is
not
configured for DHCP, then it has to have a static IP address on the
169.254 network (i.e. 169.254.1.5)
•
If the computer is configured for DHCP, then it will automatically obtain an IP address on
•
the 169.254 network after minute or two as long as it is not connected to the network.
