Configuring Access Point Groups

ProSafe 16 AP Wireless Management System WMS5316

Editing Access Point Information

• IP: The IP address of the managed access point.

• Model: The access point model. The field cannot be modified; it is set when the access

point is added to the list.

• Name: The user name for logging in to the access point. This field is not modifiable.

• Password: The password for the access point. If you use the wireless management

system to change a password for an access point, if it is offline or down, its password

does not change. When the access point is unauthenticated, the new password is used to

authenticate to the access point, and if successful, the new password is saved.

• Group Name: You can assign a group name from which the settings will applied to

configure the access point.

IP Settings

This screen lets you configure the management IP address settings of managed access

points.

• DHCP Client: Enables the DHCP client on the access point. Do not enable this unless a

DHCP server is configured to provide access points the same IP address every time. The

WMS5316 will not recognize the access point as the same if its IP address changes.

• IP Address: This is the IP address of the managed access point. To change it, enter an

unused IP address from the address range used on your LAN. This is allowed only when

the access point is online and healthy.

• Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask value used on your LAN. The default value is

255.255.255.0.

• Default Gateway: Enter the IP address of the gateway for your LAN.
