Result: The AP will reboot and then download the image file. You should see downloading activity begin after a few 
seconds within the TFTP server’s status screen.

8. When the download process is complete, configure the AP as described in 

 and 

Use the following procedure to set an IP address over the serial port using the CLI. The network administrator typically 
provides the AP IP address.

•

Standard straight-through serial data (RS-232) cable with a one male DB-9 connector and one female DB-9 
connector. The AP comes with a female 9-pin serial port.

•

ASCII Terminal software, such as HyperTerminal.

1. Unlock and remove the cable cover from the AP.
2. Remove the front cover from the AP to reveal the serial port.
3. Connect one end of the serial cable to the AP and the other end to a serial port on your computer.
4. Power on the computer and AP, if necessary.

After installing the serial port cable, you may use the CLI to communicate with the AP. CLI supports most generic 
terminal emulation programs, such as HyperTerminal (which is included with the Windows operating systems). In 
addition, many web sites offer shareware or commercial terminal programs you can download. Once the IP address 
has been assigned, you can use the HTTP interface or the CLI over Telnet to complete configuration.
