11 What to Do Next
The following are some of the post-installation tasks that Ruckus Wireless recommends.
Refer to the ZoneFlex 7762 Dual Band 802.11n Outdoor Access Point User Guide for more
information on configuring and managing the Access Point.
Change the Administrative Password
Management access to the Web interface of the Access Point is controlled through
administrative user name and password. As soon as you complete the Access Point setup,
make sure you log on to the Access Point’s Web interface and change the default
administrative user name and password. This will help prevent unauthorized users from
logging in to the Access Point’s Web interface and changing the access point settings to
compromise your network.
Configure the Security Settings
Unlike wired networks, anyone with a compatible wireless adapter can receive wireless
data transmissions from your network well beyond your walls. To prevent unauthorized
users from entering your wireless network and accessing your computers and files, Ruckus
Wireless strongly recommends enabling and configuring wireless security on the Access
Point. The Access Point supports several types of encryption and authentication methods
to help prevent unauthorized access to your wireless network.
