5. Verify the settings on the Basic Settings page.
• Review access point description and provide a new administrator password for the access point if you do not want to
use the default password, which is admin.
• Click the Update button to activate the wireless network with these new settings.
Note: The changes you make are not saved or applied until you click Update. Changing some access point
settings might cause the AP to stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will
temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change access point settings when WLAN traffic is low.
For more information about the fields and configuration options on the Basic Settings page, see
page 20.
6. If you do not have a DHCP server on the management network and do not plan to use one, you must change the
Connection Type from DHCP 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 Static IP address so that if you bring up another UAP on the same network, the IP address for each AP will be
unique. To change the connection type and assign a static IP address, see
page 22 (CLI) or "Ethernet Settings" on page 37
