The prohibited accesses include Ping, Web, Telnet, SNMP and TFTP.
Ping / Telnet / HTTP /
SNMP / TFTP
If you enable Deny Management via WLAN, these fields will be
configurable.
For Ping/Telnet/HTTP/SNMP/TFTP, you can allow or deny the wireless
clients to access these applications on the device individually.
Connection Type You can select DHCP or Static IP.
DHCP: The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol
specifying how a centralized server can provide network configuration
information to devices on the network. A DHCP server "offers" a "lease"
to the client system. The information supplied includes the IP addresses
and netmask plus the address of its DNS servers and gateway.
Static IP: It
indicates that all network settings are provided manually. You
must provide the IP address for the AT-TQ2403 Management Software,
its subnet mask, the IP address of the default gateway, and the IP address of
at least one DNS Nameserver.
If you select "DHCP", the AT-TQ2403 Management Software will acquire
its IP Address, subnet mask, and DNS and gateway information from the
DHCP Servers. Otherwise, if you select "Static IP", fill in the following
items.
Caution: When you change the Connection Type to Static IP, you can
either assign a new Static IP Address to the AP or continue using the
default address. We recommend assigning a new address so that if later
you bring up another AT-TQ2403 Management Software on the same
network, the IP addresses for the two APs will be unique.
