Chapter 3: Access Point Conguration
Introduction
The 3e-528 features three bridging ports interconnected to each other inter-
nally. The rst bridging port, accessible from the CONFIG 1 port, can also act as
an access point. This unit incorporates two separate 802.11 wireless cards, one
802.11b card that acts as a WLAN, and one dual 802.11b/g card for use in wire-
less bridging.
The 3e-528 wireless video server can be further congured for use in FIPS
140-2 secure mode. In this example of conguration, we have chosen to present
all the screens in the FIPS 140-2 mode. There are a few differences in non-FIPS
mode which are described in the Navigation chart on page 9.
Preliminary Conguration Steps
For preliminary installation the 3e-528 network administrator may need the
following information:
• IP address
Note: To set up one 3e-528 you will need ve IP addresses. One for the
accesspoint port (the rst bridging port uses the same IP address), three
for the other bridging ports, one for the video server card, and one for
the serial server card for PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom).
• Subnet Mask
• Default IP addresses of the 3e-528
– 192.168.254.254 for the AP and rst bridge
– 192.168.254.20 for the video server
– 192.168.254.30 for the serial card
• DNS IP address
• SSID – an ID number/letter string that you want to use in the congu-
ration process to identify all members of the wireless LAN.
• The MAC addresses of all the wireless cards that will be used to access
the 3e-528 network of access points (if MAC address ltering is to be
enabled)
• The appropriate encryption key for wireless connection.
