8.4.4 Setting IP Address by Using a Serial Port
: ‘Setting IP Address by using a Serial Port’, is not applicable for AP-8100.
Use the following procedure to set an IP address for the device by using the CLI. The Network Administrator typically provides
the device IP address.
• Hardware and Software Requirements
— Standard serial (RS-232) cable (not included in the Product Package).
— ASCII Terminal software.
• Attaching the Serial Port Cable
— Connect one end of the serial cable to the device and the other end to a serial port on your computer.
— Power on the computer and the device.
• Initializing the IP Address by using CLI
After connecting the cable to the serial port, you can use the CLI to communicate with the device. CLI supports the
most-generic terminal emulation programs. In addition, many web sites offer shareware or commercial terminal
programs that you can download. Once the IP address has been assigned, you can use the HTTP interface or the Telnet
to complete the configuration.
Follow the following steps to assign an IP address to the device:
1. Open your terminal emulation program and set the following connection properties:
• Com Port: COM1, COM2 and so on depending on your computer
• Baud Rate: 115200
• Data Bits: 8
• Stop Bits: 1
• Flow Control: None
• Parity: None
2. The terminal display shows Power On Self Tests (POST) activity, and then displays the software version. It prompts you
to enter the CLI username and password. The commands to enter the username and password are as follows.
This process may take up to 90 seconds.
