Getting StartedConnecting the Access Point to a PC1Display the Configuration Utility by Using Another IP AddressYou can display the Access Point Configuration Utility by using an IP addressassigned to the access point during a previous configuration or by a DHCP server.When you power on the access point, the built-in DHCP client searches for aDHCP server on the network to obtain an IP address and other networkinformation. If the access point does not find a DHCP server on the network, theaccess point uses its default static IP address (192.168.10.10) unless you haveassigned it a static IP address (and specified a static IP addressing policy) or untilthe access point successfully receives network information from a DHCP server.!CAUTION If the access point IP address is changed, either by a DHCP server or manually, yourlink to the access point will be lost and you must enter the new IP address to usethe Access Point Configuration Utility.To configure the access point by using an IP address other than the default staticIP address:STEP 1STEP 2Power on the Cisco AP541N.If you used a DHCP server on your network to automatically configure networkinformation for the access point, enter the IP address assigned to the access pointby the DHCP server into the Web browser.If you have access to the DHCP server on your network and know the MACaddress of your access point, you can view the new IP address associated withthe MAC address of the access point. Otherwise, we recommend that youdisconnect the access point from the network, reset it to the default configurationby using the procedure in the “Resetting the Device by using the Reset Button”section, and configuring the device by using the procedure in the “Display theConfiguration Utility By Using the Default IP Address” section.If you replaced the default static IP address with a new static IP address, enter thenew IP address of the access point into the Web browserThe Login window displays, as shown in Figure 3.STEP 3Enter the login information:Username is ciscoDefault password is cisco (passwords are case sensitive)Cisco AP 541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide 16
