10.2.2.5. Local Configuration of an Access Point Previous topic Parent topic Child topic Next topic

If an access point has been configured in the OpenScape 4000 switch, it cannot be put into operation immediately. The central system cannot establish contact with the access point until this has been configured with the essential IP addresses, etc.
“Expert Access“ application is available in order to perform this initial access point configuration locally. To this end, the TAP/Service PC is connected to the RS232/V.24 interface of the HG 3575 with the designation “Service“ and the application started.
The terminal login must be used for login purposes. In the case of virgin modules, this is "TRM", and no password is set. If the module has already been in operation and the terminal login and password have been changed, these later values apply.
If there is a duplex processor (CC-B) in the OpenScape 4000 switch, the address must always be specified. After all, it is not possible to predict whether CC-A or CC-B will be playing the active role at this time. If there is no CC-B in the system, the IP address for this processor is not needed.
The IP address of the TAP need only be specified if the administration function of the OpenScape 4000 switch is to be accessed from this access point.
If VLAN tagging is used in the Ethernet segment to which the access point should be connected, a setting must be performed for it during initial startup. If the access point was operated in a network with VLAN tagging and should now run without VLAN tagging, this setting must also be changed locally.
If the access point is to be operated with fixed Ethernet interface settings for bit rate and mode or if this fixed setting is to be removed (in the event of relocation to another network), this setting too must be performed locally.
Of the parameters which are displayed and adjustable, only a certain number actually have to be entered. All other parameters are loaded from the OpenScape 4000 switch as soon as the central system can establish contact with the access point;
IMPORTANT:
Changing a parameter value locally does not result in a change of the value in the system. Absolutely all parameters configured locally at the access point are overwritten by the values configured in the system upon loading the module from the OpenScape 4000 switch.
When configuring the access point locally, a distinction is again also made between “networked“ and “direct link“.

Networked access point

The following fields must be completed:
