Step 3
Enter the access point’s MAC address in the Device MAC ID field. The access point’s MAC address is
printed on the label on the bottom of the unit. It should contain six pairs of hexadecimal digits. Your
access point’s MAC address might look like the following example:
004096xxxxxx
Note The MAC address field is not case-sensitive.
Step 4 Enter the IP address you want to assign to the access point in the IP Address field.
Step 5 Enter the SSID you want to assign to the access point in the SSID field.
Note You cannot set the SSID without also setting the IP address. However, you can set the IP address
without setting the SSID.
Step 6 Click Set Parameters to change the access point’s IP address and SSID settings.
Step 7 Click Exit to exit IPSU.
