Passwords
The following passwords are configurable:
•
SNMP Read Community Password: The password for read access to the AP using SNMP. Enter a password in
both the Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32 characters. The default
password is “public”.
• SNMP Read/Write Community Password: The password for read and write access to the AP using SNMP. Enter
a password in both the Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32
characters. The default password is “public”.
• SNMPv3 Authentication Password: The password used when sending authenticated SNMPv3 messages. Enter
a password in both the Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32
characters, but a length of at least at least 8 characters is recommended. The default password is “public”. Secure
Management (Services tab) must be enabled to configure SNMPv3.
The default SNMPv3 username is administrator, with SHA authentication, and DES privacy protocol.
• SNMPv3 Privacy Password: The password used when sending encrypted SNMPv3 data. Enter a password in
both the Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32 characters, but a length
of at least at least 8 characters is recommended. The default password is “public”. Secure Management (Services
tab) must be enabled to configure SNMPv3.
• Telnet (CLI) Password: The password for the CLI interface (via serial or Telnet). Enter a password in both the
Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32 characters. The default password
is “public”.
• HTTP (Web) Password: The password for the Web browser HTTP interface. Enter a password in both the
Password field and the Confirm field. This password must be between 6 and 32 characters. The default password
is “public”.
NOTE
For security purposes Proxim recommends changing ALL PASSWORDS from the default “public”
immediately, to restrict access to your network devices to authorized personnel. If you lose or forget your
password settings, you can always perform the
Reset to Factory Default Procedure .
IP Access Table
The Management IP Access table limits in-band management access to the IP addresses or range of IP addresses
specified in the table. This feature applies to all management options (SNMP, HTTP, and CLI) except for CLI
management over the serial port. To configure this table, click Add and set the following parameters:
•
IP Address: Enter the IP Address for the management station.
• IP Mask: Enter a mask that will act as a filter to limit access to a range of IP Addresses based on the IP Address
you already entered.
–
The IP mask 255.255.255.255 would authorize the single station defined by the IP Address to configure the
Access Point. The AP would ignore commands from any other IP address. In contrast, the IP mask
255.255.255.0 would allow any device that shares the first three octets of the IP address to configure the AP.
For example, if you enter an IP address of 10.20.30.1 with a 255.255.255.0 subnet mask, any IP address
between 10.20.30.1 and 10.20.30.254 will have access to the AP’s management interfaces.
• Comment: Enter an optional comment, such as the station name.
To edit or delete an entry, click Edit. Edit the information, or select Enable, Disable, or Delete from the Status
pull-down menu.
