3. Network Attachment and Configuration of the Access Point
3.1.1 Configuring the AP
When the VxWorks system software is loaded, the AP has to be configured to set some options such as the channel
frequency and Service Set Identifier (SSID). This can be done through a web browser with access to the built-in AP
web server.
3.1.2 Web Browser
The following procedures show the steps to configure the channel frequency and SSID using a web browser:
1. Launch a web browser (Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer are examples of commonly used web
browsers) from the Host PC or other PC with IP address 192.168.2.10, and subnet address as 255.255.0.0,
and enter the IP address that is assigned to the AP as the URL, for example http://192.168.2.20 .
