Parameter
Description
IP Address Type
It specifies the IP address obtaining mode of the AP.
⚫
Static IP: It indicates that the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server
information of the AP are set manually. It is proper for the scenarios where only
one or several APs are required in the network.
⚫
DHCP (Dynamic IP Address): It indicates that the IP address, subnet mask,
gateway, and DNS server information of the AP is obtained from a DHCP server on
your LAN. It is proper for the scenarios where a large group of APs are required in
the network.
If Address Type is set to DHCP (Dynamic IP Address), you can log in to the web UI of
the AP only with the IP address assigned to the AP by the DHCP server. The IP
address is specified on the client list of the DHCP server.
IP Address
It specifies the IP address of the AP. The web UI of the AP is accessible at this IP
address.
Subnet Mask
It specifies the subnet mask of the IP address of the AP.
Default Gateway
It specifies the gateway IP address of the AP.
Generally, set the gateway IP address to the LAN IP address of your LAN router
connected to the internet, so that the AP can access the internet.
Primary DNS
It specifies the primary DNS server of the AP.
If your LAN router connected to the internet provides the DNS proxy function, this
IP address can be the LAN IP address of the router. Otherwise, enter a correct DNS
server IP address.
Secondary DNS
It specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS server of the AP. This parameter is
optional.
If a DNS server IP address in addition to the IP address of the primary DNS server is
available, enter the additional IP address in this field.
Device Name
It specifies the name of the AP.
You are recommended to change the name of the AP to indicate the location of the
AP (such as Bedroom), so that you can easily identify the AP when managing many
APs.
