LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, IP Address
Enter the non-routable IP address to associate with the Ethernet connection on this AP. (The
default IP address from the factory is 169.254.1.1.) If you set and then forget this parameter, then
you must both
• physically access the module.
• use an override plug to electronically access the module configuration parameters at
169.254.1.1. See Overriding Forgotten IP Addresses or Passwords on AP, SM, or BH on Page
433.
RECOMMENDATION:
Note or print the IP settings f
rom this page. Ensure that you can readily associate
these IP settings both with the module and with the other data that you store
about the module.
LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, Subnet Mask
Enter an appropriate subnet mask for the AP to communicate on the network. The default subnet
mask is 255.255.0.0. See Allocating Subnets on Page 164.
LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, Gateway IP Address
Enter the appropriate gateway for the AP to communicate with the network. The default gateway
is 169.254.0.0.
The values of these four LAN1 network interface configuration parameters are displayed read only
along with the Ethernet speed and duplex state on the Network Interface tab of the Home page in
the AP.
LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, DHCP State
If you select Enabled, the DHCP server automatically assigns the IP configuration (IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway IP address) and the values of those individual parameters (above) are
not used. The setting of this DHCP state parameter is also viewable, but not settable, in the
Network Interface tab of the Home page.
