PART III
9.0 Detailed Configurations
9.1 Introduction III
Although your AirStation will work fine in
most network environments, you may wish
to explore the advanced options. This
chapter explains each parameter in the setup
screen.
9.2 Basic Settings
Basic Settings includes the following
parameters:
AirStation Name
Connection type
IP address
Default Gateway
DNS Server
9.2.1 AirStation Name
A unique name can be set for your AirStation
in order for clients to recognize it. It identifies
each access point when multiple access points
are present. Although it is not necessary to
set this parameter, it can be useful. Once it is
set, the name will be shown at the top of the
initial setup screen.
9.2.2 Connection type
The following options are possible for the
wired LAN port setting:
10 Mbps Half Duplex
100 Mbps Half Duplex
Auto
If the port on the LAN hub is set to Full
Duplex, set the WLM2-G54 to Auto.
9.2.3 IP Address
If you do not use a DHCP server on your
network, you have to assign an IP address
manually. A specific IP address should be
obtained for this. You can use DHCP by
selecting "auto IP assignment from DHCP
Server."
9.2.4 Default Gateway
A default gateway IP should be assigned to
the AirStation. If the gateway IP is unknown,
leave the box blank. If "Auto IP assignment
from DHCP Server" is selected, the gateway
IP will be assigned automatically.
9.2.5 DNS Server
Input the IP address of the server to be used
by the WLM2-G54 for DNS resolution. If
DNS is not used, leave blank.
