CONFIGURING THE AP’S IP ADDRESS USING THE CLI                                                             BLUESOCKET BSAP 1920/1925
By default, DHCP is enabled on the Bluesocket BSAP 1920/1925. If you need to statically configure the
IP address for the Bluesocket 1920/1925 AP, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that the BSAP is connected to a controlling computer (using the provided RJ-45 Ethernet
                                                                                                          WIRELESS ACCESS POINT
    cable).                                                                                               HARDWARE
2. Specify that the computer’s TCP/IP setting is On or Enabled by navigating to Control Panel >           Make sure the following items were included in the shipment:
    Network Connections and double-clicking the connection of your network interface card. Select          •  Bluesocket BSAP 1920/1925 Wireless Access Point (AP)
    Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and select Properties. Then specify that the TCP/IP setting is enabled.
                                                                                                           •  One wall/ceiling mount hardware kit
3. Set your PC to a static IP address of 192.168.190.2 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
                                                                                                           •  One ceiling T-rail mount hardware kit
4. Next, access the AP’s command line interface (CLI) using a Secure Shell (SSH) client. Open an
    SSH connection using the unit’s default IP address (192.168.190.1) and port 2335. Enter the default
    user name and password (adm1n (note the number 1) and blue1socket) at the prompt. To access
    the unit using vWLAN, and for more instructions about CLI configuration, refer to the Bluesocket
    vWLAN Administrator’s Guide, available online at https://supportforums.adtran.com.

                    If extra space is required to accommodate dropped ceiling tiles, use the provided
                    spacers and longer screws included in the T-rail ceiling mount kit.


2.   Once the ceiling clips are attached to the BSAP 1920/1925, line up the T-rail connectors with an
     appropriately sized rail and press the unit onto the rail until it snaps into place.
3.   Optionally protect your BSAP 1920/1925 AP with a Kensington cable lock (not provided) inserted in
     the security slot.
