Note: When the Enterasys Wireless Controller ships from the factory it is configured with a default
password to assign to the Wireless APs that register with it. The default password is new2day. The
password is sent to the Wireless APafter it has registered. The administrator can override this
password using the Wireless AP Registration page in the GUI. For more information, see the
Enterasys Wireless Controller, Access Points and Convergence Software User Guide.
Note: The admin password is modified in the Wireless AP when a new password is saved for telnet
access.
Telnet to Wireless APs works via the Enterasys Wireless Controller console port only.
