Network Name (SSID of the wireless cards) You must assign the Access Point a Network Name before wireless users can
communicate with it. The clients also need the same Network Name. This is not the same
as the System Name, which applies only to the Access Point. The network administrator
typically provides the Network Name.
AP’s IP Address If you do not have a DHCP server on your network, then you need to assign the
Access Point an IP address that is valid on your network.
HTTP Password Each Access Point requires a read/write password to access the web interface. The default
password is “public”.
CLI Password Each Access Point requires a read/write password to access the CLI interface. The default
password is “public”.

The default password is “public”.
