Configuring the Access Point
You configure an access point through the Access Point Configuration
Management System. It contains several configuration screens, each of which is
displayed in a browser.
An online help file describes the features in each of these screens. There
are two ways to view the online help file.
- To view it now, click here.
- To view it as you are viewing or changing settings in the configuration
screens, install the online help file. After the installation, click the
help button on a configuration screen to display help information pertinent
to that screen. For instructions on how to install the help file, click
here.
To access the browser-based Configuration
Management System built into the access point, see the access point installation and setup
information .
Help File Installation
Install the Help file on a web server (recommended):
-
Create a directory for the Help file. For example: D:/Intel/Wireless/Ap/Help.
- Create an alias for the Help path. For example: HelpPath.
- Copy the file WAP50HLP.HTM and the file PROSET.CSS from the directory WIRELESS/GUIDES/APHelp/5000
on the Intel CD-ROM to the directory created in Step 1.
- On the Express Setup or Configuration screen in the access point
Configuration Management System, enter the following URL in the field “Help
URL”: HTTP://nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn/HelpPath, where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
is the IP address of the web server. Click Apply.
If no web server is available, install the Help file on a client
workstation:
This option is only available
if your browser is Internet Explorer.
- Create a directory for the Help file. For example:
C:/Intel/Wireless/Ap/Help.
- Copy the file WAP50HLP.HTM from the directory WIRELESS/GUIDES/APHelp/5000
on the Intel CD-ROM to the directory created in Step 1.
- On the Express Setup or Configuration screen in the access point
Configuration Management System, enter the path to the directory created in
Step 1 (C:/Intel/Wireless/Ap/Help in the example above) in the field
“Help URL” and click Apply.
Be sure that the Help
file installed on the local machine or web server is identical to the file found
on the Intel CD-ROM.
