Software configuration requires setting up a connection to the Access Point (AP) 
and gaining access to the User Interface (UI).

In order to configure an AP, you need access to the Web and you need to know 
the IP address of the AP. In the address/URL text box of your browser, type IP 
address of the AP and press Enter.

Using a Web browser to gain access to the UI requires the workstation to have a 
TCP/IP stack and access to a Web browser. The remote station can be on either the 
wired or wireless LAN. There are two methods for setting up the Web Help file:

1 Placing the Help file on the network Web server

2 Placing the Help file on the local workstation hard disk.

To use this feature, the Web browser (Internet Explorer 4.0 or greater, or Netscape) 
requires JavaScript.

A network Web server is required to access the Help file from the AirConnect 
Access Point Configuration Management System Web pages. This procedure is 
intended for Microsoft Internet Information Server. The network Web server can 
be different. If this is the case, some of the procedures will differ.

To create the Help file on a network Web server, a network or system administrator 
uses the procedure below. (NT4 is used in this example.)

1 Create a directory on the network Web server in which the AP Web Site Help Files 

will reside. Often this is a subdirectory to C:\InetPub\wwwRoot.

2 Copy all .gif and .htm files to the directory or folder. 

3 Select Start from the Windows Task Bar.

4 Select Programs-->Microsoft Internet Server (common)-->Internet Service Manager.
