Initial Configuration for home installation
Refer to Figure 5 for the Initial Configuration screen.
1. Enter a name for the 950AP if you want to easily recognize it.
2. Enter an administrator password (16 characters maximum) and
then confirm the password.
3. Ensure Network Address Translation (NAT) for the 950AP is
selected. By default NAT is enabled.
4. Select the WAN port (Network port) configuration:
-Select DHCP if your 950AP receives its IP address from a
DHCP server. If you select DHCP and NAT is enabled,
Bluetooth device IP addresses are assigned by the 950AP’s
internal DHCP server while it obtains its WAN port IP
address from the DHCP server.
-Select Static if you use static IP addresses. If you select
Static and NAT is enabled, enter the 950AP’s Static IP
Parameters on page 2 of the Initial Configuration. The
950AP will assign IP addresses to Bluetooth devices.
-Select PPPoE if your ISP requires you to use it. NAT must be
enabled to use PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over
Ethernet). Enter your username, Service name and
password on page 2 of the Initial Configuration.
5. Select a security level for your 950AP. If you select Secure, the
unit will be discoverable, but only manually configured devices
will be able to connect. Select Insecure to have the 950AP
automatically authorize any device.
6. Page 2 of the Initial Configuration depends on your selection in
step 4. If you selected DHCP, page 2 does not appear.
-If you selected Static, you must enter the Static IP
Parameters (see Figure 6).
-If you enabled PPPoE, you must complete the PPPoE details.

7. Click OK to complete the 950AP’s configuration.
For more detailed information on IP address configuration and
security, refer to the 950AP User Guide on the Red-M website.
Note: NAT must be enabled in a home environment to translate
IP addresses over a Wide Area Network (WAN). This function
may be provided by a router/switch connected to your modem.
Note: If you complete the configuration of your 950AP using a
Bluetooth device, that device is automatically added to your
device list and authorized to connect.
