Figure 15 IP Settings (Bridge)
Obtain IP Address Automatically: If a DHCP server exists in your network, you can check this
option, thus the LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP is able to obtain IP settings
automatically from that DHCP server.
Note:
When the IP address of the LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP is changed, the
clients on the network often need to wait for a while or even reboot before they can access the
new IP address. For an immediate access to the bridge, please flush the netbios cache on the
client computer by running the “nbtstat –r” command before using the device name of the
LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP to access its Web Management page.
Use Fixed IP Address: Check this option. You have to specify a static IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway and DNS server for LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP manually. Make
sure the specified IP address is unique on your network in order to prevent IP conflict.
Spanning Tree: Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a link management protocol for AP which
provides path redundancy while preventing loops in a network. STP allows only one active path
at a time between the access points but establish the redundant link as a backup if the initial link
fails.
