Disable the DHCP Client and Specify a Fixed IP Address
By default, the DHCP client of the access point is enabled and the access point receives an IP address from
a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server) in your network. If your network does not
include a DHCP server or you prefer to specify a fixed (static) IP address, disable the DHCP client of the
access point.
To disable the DHCP client and specify a fixed IP address:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or to
the access point directly through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The default user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you
logged in.The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > IP > LAN.
The page that displays lets you specify the LAN settings, but the fields are masked because the DHCP
client is enabled.
5. Select the Disable radio button.
6. Specify the settings that are described in the following table.
