Configuring Device Setup Settings
To configure the device setup settings of the access point, follow these steps:
STEP 1 Click Setup > Basic Setup.
STEP 2 In the Device Setup section, enter the following information:
• Host Name—Administratively-assigned name for the WAP device. The
default host name is “wap” concatenated with the last six hex digits of the
MAC address of the WAP device. Host Name labels contain only letters,
digits and hyphens. Host Name labels cannot begin or end with a hyphen.
No other symbols, punctuation characters, or blank spaces are permitted.
You can use the host name to access the web-based configuration utility
through the network if a record of the host name exists in your DNS server.
The access point publishes the host name to your DNS server if you
configured the access point to acquire its IP address from a DHCP server.
• Device Name—Enter the device name for the access point.
This name is identification purposes only. Unique, memorable names are
helpful, especially if you are deploying multiple access points on the same
network. This name helps you identify the access point after you log in.
The default name is WAP4410N.
STEP 3 Click Save.
Configuring Network Setup Settings
This section allows you to configure the network setup settings of the access
point. For information about the default IP address of the access point, see
