5 What to Do Next
The following are some of the post-installation tasks that Ruckus Wireless recommends.
Refer to the ZoneFlex Outdoor Access Point User Guide for more information on config-
uring and managing the AP.
Changing the Administrative Password
Management access to the Web interface of the AP is controlled through administrative
user name and password. As soon as you complete the AP setup, make sure you log on
to the AP’s Web interface and change the default administrative user name and password.
This will help prevent unauthorized users from logging in to the AP’s Web interface and
changing the AP settings to compromise your network.
Configuring 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 AP. The
AP supports several types of encryption and authentication methods to help prevent
unauthorized access to your wireless network.
Configuring Advanced Settings and Features
The AP has been configured for basic operation. However, the Ruckus Wireless AP
supports many advanced settings and features. Refer to the ZoneFlex Outdoor Access
Point User Guide, ZoneDirector User Guide, or FlexMaster User Guide for instructions on
how to configure the advanced setting and feature parameters.
Reading Related Documentation
If you are using FlexMaster or ZoneDirector to manage the AP, make sure you read the
accompanying documentation to learn how to configure and manage the AP from the
FlexMaster and ZoneDirector Web interface.
