If security setting is not requested, only ESSID setting in the wireless
network card of user’s terminal is configured to be same as the one in the
AP, then AP can work properly with the card after power is supplied
(WA6012 needs to set VPI/VCI)
Login AP
Access the AP through LAN port or the uplink port:
After the configuration of AP and PC wireless network card is completed,
the user can access AP wirelessly. (AP works in Bridge or Router mode)
- Install a wireless network card in a PC, set its IP Address the same
as the AP’s and LAN port’s, e.g. 172.18.37.10, Mask:
2555.2555.255.0, set the ESSID the same as the AP’s, check the
status of the wireless network card, make sure it connects to the AP.
Logon to the WA6011/6012 through the web browser.
Access AP through the uplink ports
- In Bridge mode, the IP addresses of the PC and the AP LAN
interface should be set the same, e.g. 172.18.37.10. Use the web
browser to logon.
Note: To access AP through the Ethernet port on DSLAM
because the uplink of WA6012 is ADSL (RJ11)
- In Route mode, the IP addresses of the PC and the AP’s WAN
interface should be set the same, e.g. 192.168.1.10. Set the Mask
to 255.255.255.0. Use the web browser to logon.
The Logon Interface is displayed in Figure 8. The user name for
administrator is “admin”, and password is “admin”. The user name for guest
(read only) is “guest”, the password is “guest”. The administrator has right to
set all configurations for the AP, but guests can read the AP status and
statistic information only
