2.3. Preparing for Configuration
For you to configure an AP, a managing computer with a Web browser is needed. For first-time con-
figuration of an AP, an Ethernet network interface card (NIC) should have been installed in the man-
aging computer. For maintenance-configuration of a deployed AP, either a wireless computer or a
wired computer can be employed as the managing computer.

NOTE:
If you are using the browser, Opera, to configure an AP, click the menu item File, click

Since the configuration/management protocol is HTTP-based, you have to make sure that the IP ad-
dress of the managing computer and the IP address of the managed AP are in the same IP sub-
net (the default IP address of an AP is 192.168.0.1 and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.)
