24 Preparing the Managed Access Points

If you are not familiar with accessing the 3Com 7760 Web interface, refer 
to the 7760 Access Point Quick Start Guide.

1 Log on to the access point Web interface.

2 Check the serial number on the back of the access point.

If the serial number starts with BA/ or higher, a managed image is already 
installed. You can skip steps 3 and 4 and go directly to step 5.

3 Ensure the 7760 Stand-alone firmware version is 1.5.25 or greater.

a View the firmware version on the Management -> Firmware 

Upgrade page.

b Upgrade the Stand-alone firmware if required.

Get the latest firmware by visiting www.3Com.com. Select Support & 
Downloads then Downloads & Drivers and enter the model 
number (3CRWE776075).

c Use the Management -> Firmware Upgrade page and set Image 

Type to Stand-alone to load the Stand-alone firmware.

4 If the serial number of your access point is not BA/ or higher, you must 

load a Managed firmware image to the access point.

a Get the Managed firmware image by visiting www.3Com.com, 

selecting Support & Downloads then Downloads & Drivers and 
entering the model number (3CRWE776075).

b On the 7760, use the Management -> Firmware Upgrade page 

and set Image Type to Managed to load the Managed firmware.

c Click the Upgrade button.

5 Change the access point Start-up Mode from Stand-alone to Managed 

using the System Configuration -> System Properties page.

6 Click the Apply button. The access point will reboot automatically.

7 To make the access point active on your Unified Switch 24, see 

“Activating the Managed Access Points” on page 21.

Note: After the access point is in Managed mode, it can no longer be 
accessed using WIDMan, HTTP, Telnet, or SNMP. An access point in 
Managed mode can only be discovered and managed by the 3Com 
Unified Switch 24. To return the access point to the default Stand-alone 
mode, refer to “Resetting Access Points” on page 26 of this Quick Start 
Guide.
