NOTE

The procedures described below assume this is the first time you are connecting to a Brocade
Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point.

NOTE

The computer being used should be configured to use the same IP address and subnet mask as the
access point.

Connecting to the access point using the WAN port

To initially connect to the access point using the access point’s WAN port:

1. Connect AC power to the access point, as Power-Over-Ether support is not available on the

access point’s WAN (or GE2) port.

2. Start a browser and enter the access point’s static IP address (10.1.1.1). The default password

is “admin123.”

3. Refer to

“Basic configuration”

on page 41 for instructions on the initial (basic) configuration of

the access point.

Connecting to the access point using the LAN port

To initially connect to the access point using the access point’s LAN port:

1. The LAN (or GE1/POE) port default is set to DHCP. Connect the access point’s GE1/POE port to

a DHCP server.

The access point will receive its IP address automatically.

2. To view the IP address, connect one end of a null modem serial cable to the access point and

the other end to the serial port of a computer running HyperTerminal or similar emulation
program.

3. Configure the following settings:

Baud Rate - 19200
