• Subnet Mask: The mask that identifies the host address bits used for routing to

specific subnets.

• Default Gateway: The default gateway is the IP address of the router for the access

point, which is used if the requested destination address is not on the local subnet.
If you have management stations, DNS, RADIUS, or other network servers

located on another subnet, type the IP address of the default gateway router in the
text field provided. Otherwise, leave the address as all zeros (0.0.0.0).

• Primary and Secondary DNS Address: The IP address of Domain Name Servers

on the network. A DNS maps numerical IP addresses to domain names and can
be used to identify network hosts by familiar names instead of the IP addresses.
If you have one or more DNS servers located on the local network, type the IP

addresses in the text fields provided. Otherwise, leave the addresses as all zeros
(0.0.0.0).

CLI Commands for TCP/IP Settings – From the global configuration mode, enter the
interface configuration mode with the interface ethernet command. Use the ip
dhcp

command to enable the DHCP client, or no ip dhcp to disable it. To manually

configure an address, specify the new IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway using the ip address command. To specify DNS server addresses use the
dns server

command. Then use the show interface ethernet command from the

Exec mode to display the current IP settings.
