Frequently Asked Questions - AT-MWS2533AP Allied Telesis

How do I access the web interface of the AT-MWS2533AP for the first time?
Connect the access point to a PoE+ switch and your PC to the same network. Set your PC IP to 192.168.1.x (not 230). Open a browser and go to https://192.168.168.1.230. Default username is manager and password is friend.
What are the default IP address and credentials?
The default IP address is 192.168.1.230. The default username is manager and the default password is friend.
How can I reset the access point to factory defaults?
Go to System Manager > Account or use the Backup / Restore section under System Manager. Click Reset to Default to restore factory settings. Alternatively, hold the reset button (if available) during power-on.
What security modes are supported?
The access point supports WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK Mixed, WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, and WPA Mixed-Enterprise. It also supports MAC filtering and client isolation.
How do I set up a guest network?
Go to Network > Wireless and scroll to Guest Network Settings. Enable the guest network, set an SSID, and configure security (e.g., WPA2-PSK). The AP will automatically assign IP addresses via its DHCP server (default subnet 192.168.200.0/24).
Can I manage the access point wirelessly?
Yes, once the access point is connected to the network and has an IP address, you can access the web interface wirelessly if your management PC is on the same subnet. However, for initial setup, a wired connection is recommended.
How do I upgrade the firmware?
Go to System Manager > Firmware Upgrade. Click Browse to select the firmware file, then Upload. After upload, click Upgrade. The device will reboot after 120 seconds. Do not power off during upgrade.
What does the 'Change: n' button do?
The Change: n button appears when you have unsaved changes in the temporary configuration. Click it to open the Configuration / Change page, then click Apply to save changes to the running/startup configuration or Revert to discard.
How do I enable SNMP monitoring?
Go to Management > Advanced and expand SNMP Settings. Enable SNMP, set community names (public/private), and configure SNMPv3 if needed. You can also set trap destinations. Apply changes to save.
The access point is not getting an IP address via DHCP. What should I do?
Ensure the PoE+ switch is providing power and network connectivity. If no DHCP server is available, the AP will use the default IP 192.168.1.230. Connect a PC to the same VLAN with a static IP in that subnet and access the web interface to configure a static IP.

Preface

Chapter 1

Getting Started

This chapter explains how to start a web browser management session. It contains the following sections:

☐ “Starting the Initial Management Session” on page 8
☐ “Starting a Management Session on the Access Point” on page 10
☐ “Saving and Applying Your Changes” on page 11

Starting the Initial Management Session

You can manage and configure the access point using the Web Management Interface. Review the guidelines before starting the initial management session.

Guidelines Here are guidelines for accessing the access point for management:

□ Use Windows Internet Explorer Version 9 or later
☐ By default, DHCP is enabled. You must access the access point using the default IP address 192.168.1.230 on a network without a DHCP server.

Starting the Initial Management Session

To start the initial management session on the access point, perform the following procedure:

  1. Connect one end of a network cable to a PoE+ LAN port on the access point and the other end to a PoE+ switch.

Note

To build a redundant power supply system with the power supplied from the DC jack, you must purchase the AT-MWS0091 AC adapter kit separately.

  1. Connect your management PC to the PoE+ switch.

Note

Ensure that the PoE+ switch port connected to the access point and the PoE+ switch port connected to your management PC belong to the same VLAN, if your network is divided into virtual VLANs.

  1. Change the IP address on your management PC to 192.168.1.n, where n is a number from 1 to 254, but not 230.
    The default IP address of the access point is 192.168.1.230.

  2. Set the subnet mask on your computer to 255.255.255.0.

  3. Start the Internet Explorer on your computer.

Note

Allied Telesis support the Internet Explorer version 9 of later.

  1. Enter the IP address 192.168.1.230 in the URL field of the browser and press the Enter key.

The login page appears as shown in Figure 1 on page 9.
