5. Select Login. The TCP/IP Settings screen appears.

Your web browser session is established.

Note

Although you can use several different methods to manage the
access point remotely, this manual assumes you are using a web
browser.

Using a Telnet

Session

After you have configured the IP address, you can configure, manage,
and troubleshoot the access point from a remote location using a telnet
session.

Only one session can be active with the access point at a time. If your
session terminates abruptly or a new login screen appears, someone
else may have accessed the access point. Also, your session terminates if
you do not use it for 15 minutes.

To use a telnet session

1. Determine the IP address of the access point. If a DHCP server

assigned the IP address, you must get the IP address from the DHCP
server.

2. From a command prompt, type

telnet IPaddress

where IPaddress is the IP address of the access point.
