10.2.2. Access Point 
When configuring an access point, a distinction must be made as to
- whether the access point involved is networked via routers in a network segment other than the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment (see Section 2.2.1, “Configuring a “Networked” Access Point”),
or
- whether the access point is linked directly to the OpenScape 4000 LAN segment (see Section 2.2.2, “Configuring a “Direct Link“ Access Point”).
Figure 13 “Difference between “networked“ and “direct link“ access point”
illustrates the difference.

In all cases, an access point need not only be configured in the system.
In order to be able to address an access point, numerous data also has
to be entered locally at the access point during its initial installation
(see Section 2.2.5,
“Local Configuration of an Access Point”). System
administration should always be performed first, followed by the local
installation of the access point. The data to be entered at the access
point can be derived by Configuration Management or directly from the
data configured in the system using “Expert Access“.
