IP Address. This field shows the IP Address that is assigned to the XAP-1230. To ensure
plug and play capability with other Luxul networking products, the IP Address is set to
192.168.0.10. If desired, the user can set this to a different static IP Address. To change
the IP address of the Access Point, simply type in the desired IP Address (the text field
will be red if the address is not valid), click Apply and then Reboot for the changed

NEW IP Address must be used.

NOTE: Each device on the same network must have a unique IP address.

result in an IP Address conflict that must be resolved manually. For
optimal communications with all Luxul devices on the network, it is
recommended that IP Addresses not be changed unless necessary.

Default Gateway: A Gateway is a router on the network that connects two or more
networks together. Typically the Gateway (router) connects the local area network
(LAN) to the Internet (WAN). The Internet Service Provider (ISP) often provides
a physical device (usually a DSL modem or cable modem) that connects to the
Gateway with an Ethernet cable, thus completing the link to the Internet.

The Default Gateway field is the IP Address for this routing device. The Access Point
uses the Gateway IP Address to set time for the system log files. Although not required,
it is recommended you enter the gateway IP address information.
