5. Configuration

You need to configure the Extension Point if:

❑ There is more than one Extension Point on this network

❑ The 7510/752x/753x Access Point or Extension Point to which this Extension Point

will synchronize is not configured at default Domain or Channel

❑ You need to change the software default values, including IP addresses

❑ You want to set Security IDs on your network

There are four ways to configure the Extension Point:

❑ Locally via a null modem cable and a terminal or terminal emulation package

❑ Remotely across the network using a telnet session

❑ Remotely across the network using an SNMP management package

❑ Remotely across dial-up modems

Locally (Out-of-band)

You may use the DB-9 Local Management Port on the back of the Extension Point to

configure the unit. To locally configure the Extension Point, you need a null modem RS-232

cable with a nine pin female connector on the Extension Point side and a terminal or PC with

an available serial port running a terminal application package.

Note:

If you use a terminal application that has the option to check for the CD signal

before establishing a connection, configure the software to ignore CD.

Alternatively, verify that your null modem cable is a full handshake cable and

pulls CD high.
