Crestron CEN-WAP-ABG-1G

802.11a/b/g Wireless Access Point

From the drop-down list, select either of the following:

Disable: Prevents the access point from transmitting UPnP broadcast

messages and therefore increases device security on an insecure network.

NOTE: Disabling UPnP prevents the Device Discovery Tool of the
Crestron Toolbox from finding the access point on the network. As a result,
the configuration utility of the access point can only be accessed from a
Web browser.

NOTE: Disabling UPnP does not affect communication between Crestron
touchpanels and the control system.

Enable: (Default setting) Allows the access point to transmit UPnP

broadcast messages. As a result, the Device Discovery Tool of the Crestron
Toolbox can find the access point on the network.

UPNP Name: (Applicable only when UPnP is enabled) In the text box, enter
a name for the access point to distinguish it from other devices that appear in
the device list of the Device Discovery Tool. The default setting is
CEN-WAP-ABG-1G.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) configuration: The following
shows the SNMP section of the “External Control” page.

“External Control” Page – SNMP

From the drop-down list, select either of the following:

Disable: Prevents the access point from being administered remotely via

SNMP.

Enable: (Default setting) Allows the access point to be administered

remotely via SNMP.

Assign read-only or read-write privileges to the SNMP manager (applicable only if
SNMP is enabled):

Read-only community: In the text box, enter a text string that functions as a
password to allow the SNMP manager to read configuration settings from the access
point. The default setting is public. The read-only community text string appears as
solid black circles.
