Verifying the Installation
Make sure the access point is connected to the LAN and associate some wireless clients with the network. Once you
have tested the basics of your wireless network, you can enable more security and ne-tune the AP by modifying
advanced conguration features.
1.) Connect the access point to the LAN.
•) If you congured the access point and administrator PC by connecting both into a network hub, then your
access point is already connected to the LAN. The next step is to test some wireless clients.
•) If you congured the access point by using a direct cable connection from your computer to the access point,
do the following procedures:
•) Disconnect the cable from the computer and the access point.
•) Connect an Ethernet cable from the access point to the LAN.
•) Connect your computer to the LAN by using an Ethernet cable or a wireless card.
2.) Test LAN connectivity with wireless clients.
Test the UAP by trying to detect it and associate with it from some wireless client devices. For information about
requirements for these clients, see “Wireless Client Requirements” on page 12.
3.) Secure and congure the access point by using advanced features.
Once the wireless network is up and you can connect to the AP with some wireless clients, you can add in layers
of security, create multiple virtual access points (VAPs), and congure performance settings.
Note: The WLAN AP is not designed for multiple, simultaneous conguration changes. If more
than one administrator is logged onto the Administration Web pages and making changes to the
conguration, there is no guarantee that all conguration changes specied by multiple users will
be applied.
By default, no security is in place on the access point, so any wireless client can associate with it and access
