6710 Access Point User’s Guide
The port uses a standard PC AT style cable, and operates at
speeds up to 57.6 Kbps. Configuration using this port is
described in Section 4, “Configuration.”
Remote Access
Remote access is available over TCP/IP connections using
Telnet or Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) for
configuration management, and Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) for network management.
TCP/IP
The access point supports remote access through a Request
for Comments (RFC) compliant TCP/IP stack. Before initial
usage, the stack must be initially configured with an IP
address and an optional default router through the RS-232
diagnostics port. Alternatively, the access point may be
configured with a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server name. The access point then obtains its IP
address, default router, and subnet mask from a DHCP
server.
DHCP Client
The access point contains a DHCP client, allowing it to
receive an IP address over the network. The DHCP client
supports temporary and permanent leases. It also accepts
permanent leases from a Bootstrap Protocol (Bootp) server.
See Section 4, “Configuration,” for further detail on DHCP
operation.
Telnet
Telnet may be used to access the access point’s
configuration menus. The command interface is identical to
the command interface through the diagnostics port. See
Section 4, “Configuration,” for more information about
access through Telnet.
