Changing The Ap Password; Configuring 802.1X Authentication Information On The Ap; Figure 31: Ethernet Connection For Static Ip Assignment - D-Link DWS-3000 Series User Manual

D-Link Unified Access System
For initial configuration with a direct Ethernet connection, make sure your PC has an IP address in the 10.0.0.0/8 subnet so
you can access the AP CLI.
To use a direct-cable connection, connect one end of an Ethernet straight-through or crossover cable to the network port on
the access point and the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on the PC, as shown in <Link>Figure 31.
Crossover or straight-through
cable if your AP
If you use this method, you will need to reconfigure the cabling for subsequent startup and deployment of the access point
so that the access point is no longer connected directly to the PC but instead is connected to the LAN.
When you Telnet to the AP CLI the DLINK-WLAN-AP login: prompt appears.
Enter admin as the user name and admin as the password. After a successful login, the DLINK-WLAN-AP# prompt
appears.
For information about how to disable the DHCP client on the AP or to set a static IP address, see
page 63 in the "Assigning the IP Address to Switches and Managed APs"

Changing the AP Password

For access to the AP, you need to provide the user name (admin), and a password. We recommend that you change the
default AP password to make access to the device more secure.
To change the default password, log on to the AP and enter the following command:
set system password <password>
For example, the following command changes the password to test1234.
set system password test1234
The password you type appears in plain text. You are not asked to confirm the password after you enter it once.

Configuring 802.1X Authentication Information on the AP

On networks that use IEEE 802.1X port-based network access control, a supplicant (client) cannot gain access to the
network until the 802.1X authenticator grants access. If your network uses 802.1X, you must configure 802.1X authentication
information that the AP can supply to the authenticator.
Note: The access point supports MD5 authentication.
