Accessing the CLI for an Access Point
You can use any of these methods to access the CLI for the access point
or wireless network:
 “Telnet Connection to the Access Point,” next
 “SSH Connection to the Access Point” on page 270
Telnet
Connection to the
Access Point
If you know already have your network deployed and know the IP address
of your access point, you can use a remote Telnet connection to the
access point to view the system console over the network.
Note
The default Static IP address is 192.168.1.230. If there is no DHCP
server on the network, the access point retains this static IP address
at first-time startup. You can use KickStart to find the IP address of
the access point. (For more about IP addressing, see
“Understanding Dynamic and Static IP Addressing on the
AT-WA7400 Management Software” on page 23.)
To make a Telnet connection to the AT-WA7400 Wireless Access Point,
perform the following procedure:
1. Open a command window on your PC.
(For example, from the system tray on the desktop choose Start > Run
to bring up the Run dialog, and type
cmd in the Open field, and click
OK.)
2. At the command prompt, type the following:
telnet IPAddressOfAccessPoint
where IPAddressOfAccessPoint is the address of the access point
you want to monitor.
(If your Domain Name Server is configured to map domain names to IP
addresses via DHCP, you can also telnet to the domain name of the
access point.)
3. You will be prompted for an Administrator user name and password for
the access point.
