Table 2: Requirements for the Administrator's Computer
Description
The computer used to configure the first access point must be
connected to the access point by a serial cable or an Ethernet cable.
After initial configuration and launch of the first access point on your
new wireless network, you can make subsequent configuration
changes through the Administration Web pages using a wireless
connection to the internal network. For wireless connection to the
access point, your administration device will need Wi‐Fi capability
similar to that of any wireless client:
Portable or built‐in Wi‐Fi client adapter that supports one or more of
the IEEE 802.11 modes in which you plan to run the access point.
Wireless client software configured to associate with the UAP.
Configuration and administration of the UAP is provided through a
Web‐based user interface hosted on the access point. We
recommend using one of the following supported Web browsers to
access the access point Administration Web pages:
• Microsoft® Internet Explorer® version 7.x or 8.x (with up‐to‐date
patch level for either major version)
• Mozilla® Firefox version 3.5 or later
• Safari 5 and later versions
The administration Web browser must have JavaScript™ enabled to
support the interactive features of the administration interface.
Ensure that security is disabled on the wireless client used to initially
configure the access point.
