Wireless Access Point
Installing the Wireless AP 83
On all other AP models (those with a console port), Xircon access to both
XBL and CLI is disabled by default. If Xircon is not going to be used to
access an AP, we recommend leaving Xircon access disabled.
Procedure for Securing Low Level AP Access
Use the following steps to replace the default XBL username and password, and
optionally to change the type of Xircon management access that is allowed. These
steps use CLI commands.
1. To access CLI via the WMI, click CLI under the Tool s section on the left
(for detailed instructions see “CLI” on page 424). Skip to Step 4 on
page 84.
To access CLI via SSH, see “Establishing a Secure Shell (SSH)
Connection” on page 433. Then proceed to the next step.
2. At the login as prompt, log in to CLI using the username and password
that you set in Step 5 on page 167, or the default value of admin/admin if
you have not changed them.

3. Type configure to enter the CLI config mode.

If you disable Xircon access to both XBL and CLI on models with no console
port, you must ensure that you do not lose track of the username and password
to log in to CLI/WMI! In this situation, there is no way to recover from a lost
password, other than returning the AP to Xirrus. If you have Xircon access to
XBL enabled, you can reset the password, but this recovery will require setting
the unit to factory defaults with loss of all configuration data.
