Troubleshooting AP-4000MR User Guide

Symptoms and Solutions

179

2. The AP only contacts a DHCP server during boot-up. If your network’s DHCP server is not available while the AP is

booting, the device will use the default IP address (169.254.128.132). Reboot the AP once your DHCP server is

on-line again or use the ScanTool to find the Access Point’s current IP address.

3. To find the unit’s current IP address if using DHCP, open the IP Client Table in the DHCP Server and match the

Access Point’s IP address to its MAC address (found on the product label). Alternatively, use ScanTool to identify an

Access Point’s current IP address.

4. Once you have the current IP address, use the HTTP or CLI Interface to change the unit’s IP settings, if necessary.

5. If you use static IP Address assignments, and cannot access the unit over Ethernet, use the Initializing the IP Address

using CLI procedure. Once the IP Address is set, you can use the Ethernet Interface to complete configuration.

6. Perform the Soft Reset to Factory Defaults in this guide. This will reset the unit to “DHCP” mode. If there is a DHCP

Server on the network, the DHCP Server will assign an IP Address to the AP.

HTTP Interface or Telnet Interface Does Not Work

1. Make sure you are using a compatible browser:

– Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 with Service Pack 1 or later

– Netscape 7.1 or later

2. Make sure you have the proper IP address. Enter your Access Point’s IP Address in the browser address bar, similar

to this example:

http://192.168.1.100

When the Enter Network Password window appears, leave the User Name field empty and enter the HTTP

password in the Password field. The default HTTP password is public.

3. Use the CLI over the serial port to check the IP Access Table, which can be restricting access to Telnet and HTTP.

HTML Help Files Do Not Appear

1. Verify that the HTML Help files are installed in the default directory:

C:/Program Files/ORiNOCO/AP-4000MR/HTML.

If the Help files are not located in this folder, contact your network administrator to find out where the Help files are

located on your server.

2. Copy the entire folder to your Web server.

3. Perform the following steps to specify the path for the Help files:

a. Click the Commands button in the HTTP interface.

b. Select the Help tab located at the top of the screen.

c. Enter the pathname where the Help files are located in the Help Link box. This must be an HTTP address.

d. Click OK.

Telnet CLI Does Not Work

1. Make sure you have the proper IP Address. Enter your AP IP address in the Telnet connection dialog, from a DOS

prompt, type:

C:\> telnet <AP IP Address>

2. Use the CLI over the serial port to check the IP Access Table, which can be restricting access to Telnet and HTTP.

TFTP Server Does Not Work

1. Make sure the TFTP Server has been started.

2. Verify the IP address of the TFTP Server. The server may be local or remote, so long as it has a valid IP address.

3. Configure the TFTP Server to “point” to the folder containing the file to be downloaded (or to the folder in which the file

is to be uploaded).

4. Verify that you have entered the proper AP Image file name (including the file extension) and directory path (if

needed).
