Starting the
Initial
Management
Session
To start the initial management session on the access point, perform the
following procedure:
1. Connect one end of a network cable to a PoE+ LAN port on the access
point and the other end to a PoE+ switch.
To build a redundant power supply system with the power supplied
from the DC jack, you must purchase the AT-MWS0091 AC adapter
kit separately.
2. Connect your management PC to the switch.
Ensure that the PoE+ switch port connected to the access point and
the PoE+ switch port connected to your management PC belong to
the same VLAN, if your network is divided into virtual VLANs.
3. Change the IP address on your management PC to 192.168.1.n,
where n is a number from 1 to 254, but not 230.
The factory default IP address of the access point is 192.168.1.230.
4. Set the subnet mask on your computer to 255.255.255.0.
5. Start the Internet Explorer on your computer.
Allied Telesis supports the Internet Explorer version 9 of later.
