AP-70 logging in problem

  • 1.  AP-70 logging in problem

    Posted Apr 05, 2012 01:29 PM

    Hi,

    I'm aruba newbie. I've got secondhand AP-70 from work. Unfortunatelly I can't configure it.

    I've tried to check traffic between my laptop and AP-70 on my ethernet interface. It appeared that AP-70 was sending dhcp request packets. Since I've started dhcp server, AP-70 has IP, but I still don't know how to log in to web admin panel. What is the default port for such web gui (I've tried 80, 8080, 4343, 8383, without success)?

    AP-70 has serial over ethernet functionality. How can I use it? Should I use any special cable? Is putty able to connect to such router via SOE? How to configure putty to do that? I mean, what to type as serial line?

    Telnet is not working too, or I am doing it wrong (via putty on routers ip, port 23)

    Any other hints how could I make that router operational is highly appreciated :]

    Best regards and thanks!

    You need a controller to configure that AP...

    What do you mean by a controller? Another device? You mean, that it can't work as the only device in network?

    that way you can give the AP an IP, but to have it function like you want to you do need a controller, as can be seen in the document one of the things you can configure is the master IP, the IP address for the controller, these APs don't function stand alone.

     

    and indeed, a controller isn't a cheap device to buy.  if you want to get something workable for less look into instant APs.
