4 HARDWARE FEATURES AND INSTALLATION

The XAP-1020 high powered access point is designed for optimal performance as well as for simple and efficient installation and setup. It implements Luxul's circular polarized directional antenna technology and is packaged for installation on a wall or ceiling. Because the signal generated by the XAP-1020 is directional in nature, the unit should be placed in a location that allows the antenna face to be "pointed" towards the desired coverage area. Typically this would be on a top floor ceiling pointed downwards in a multi-story installation; or for single level or two level layouts, on a wall pointed towards the desired coverage.

4.1 Front View

For maximum discretion, the front of the XAP-1020 has no LED indicators. It consists simply of the access point cover with the Luxul icon that indicates proper top/bottom installation orientation of the access point.

5.2 Quick Setup

LUXUL Simply Connected • Quick Setup ► Wireless ► Maintenance ► Status IP Address DHCP Client Disabled P Address 192.168.0.11 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway Wireless Settings Network Name (SSID) LuxulXen Security Mode Open Administrator Login Password ••••••• Confirm Password ••••••• Save Reboot Cancel Luxul AP Help Quick Setup This page displays all basic information required to set and configure the Luxul Xen Access Point. It is recommended to change the Network Name to something other than the default name and also change the Administrator Login Passo Typically, nothing else need to be changed in order for t Access Point to be up and working. Note, if more than one SSID setup (in the Wireless Sotlla section), the information displayed on this page is on used for the Primary SSID (I SSID - SSID 1).

Quick Setup: For most installations, it is expected that the Quick Setup page will be sufficient to optimally configure and deploy the XAP-1020 Wi-Fi network. The Quick Setup page consists of the following:

DHCP Client: Enabled or Disabled. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used to automatically assign an IP Addresses to a device on the network. If DHCP is enabled on the Access Point, it will no longer use the static address set by Luxul at time of manufacturing and will request a dynamic IP Address from the Router (sometimes referred to as the Gateway).

When DHCP is enabled on the Access Point, the new IP address will be needed in order to access the XenSmart™ web management interface. The Router web interface can be used to look up the IP address assigned to the Access Point. To Enable DHCP, click on the drop down menu and select Enable. Select Apply and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

NOTE: DHCP is set as Disabled by default and is the recommended setting in order to ensure optimal communications with all Luxul Xen devices on the network.

IP Address: An IP address is a numerical label assigned to each device on the network. This fi eld shows the IP address that is assigned to the XAP-1020. To ensure plug and play capability with other Luxul networking products, the IP Address is automatically defaulted to 192.168.0.11. If desired, the user can set this to a different static IP Address. To change the IP address of the Access Point, simply type in the desired IP address (the text fi eld will be red if the address is incomplete), click Apply and then Reboot for the changed to take effect. When connecting to the Access Point through the XenSmart™ web interface, the NEW IP Address must be used.

NOTE: Each device on the same network must have a unique IP address. If the Access Point is assigned an IP address already in use, it will result in an IP address conflict that will need to be resolved manually. For optimal communications with all Luxul Xen devices on the network, it is recommended that IP addresses not be changed unless absolutely necessary.

Subnet Mask: To ensure plug and play capability with other Luxul networking products, the Subnet Mask is automatically defaulted to 255.255.255.0. If desired, the user can set this to a different static Subnet Mask.

Default Gateway: A gateway is a router on the network that connects two or more networks together. Typically the gateway (router) connects the local area network (LAN) to the Internet. The Internet Service Provider (ISP) often provides a physical device (usually a DSL modem or cable modem) that connects to the gateway with an Ethernet cable, thus completing the link to the Internet. For optimal connectivity and network functionality, this device could also be the Luxul Xen XBR-2300 Router.

The Default Gateway fi eld is the IP address for this routing device. The default configuration is left blank or empty, allowing the Access Point to automatically find the necessary route to the Internet. It is recommended to leave this fi eld blank.

Network Name (SSID): Sets the name of the Wireless Network. Default name is LuxulXen. It is recommended to change the SSID from the default name. The SSID is case sensitive and can contain:

2 - 32 alphanumeric characters

▶Spaces

▶Special characters (i.e. @#\$%&*)

To change the SSID of the wireless network, simply type the desired name, click Save, and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

Security Mode: Sets the wireless security encryption mode. It is HIGHLY recommended to change the Security Mode and use the highest security level supported by the client devices in the network. In most wireless networks, WPA/WPA2 Personal is an excellent option that will support the largest cross section of client devices. Security options include:

▶Open (default - no security)
WEP (128 bit shared key)
WPA Personal
WPA2 Personal
WPA/WPA2 Personal

To change the Security Mode, click the drop down menu and select the desired mode. The available options for the selected mode will then appear. AFTER all options are complete, click Save, and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

Encryption: This fi eld sets the type of encryption to be used by the Security Mode. The encryption options are dependent upon the Security Mode selected and this fi eld only shows while in WPA mode. For WEP and WPA2, and WPA/WPA2 Personal, encryption is automatically set to 128 bits, AES, and TKIP & AES respectively. For WPA, there are three options: AES, TKIP, and TKIP & AES. When set to WPA, it is recommended that TKIP & AES be used. To change the Encryption, click the drop down menu and select the desired encryption type. Once all options are selected, click Save and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

WEP Key: This fi eld only shows while in WEP mode and sets the WEP key to be used in the network. WEP 128 bit keys require 26 characters. Allowed characters are numbers 0-9 and letters a-f. There are WEP key generators online that can automatically create a key. To change the WEP Key, simply enter the 26 character key then click Save and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

WPA Passphrase: This sets the passphrase used by client devices to connect to the wireless network when using WPA Security Mode. For WPA the passphrase:

▶Must be a minimum of 8, maximum of 63 characters
Can contain spaces or special characters (i.e. @#\$%&*)

To change the WPA Passphrase, simply type in the desired passphrase, click Save, then Reboot for the change to take effect.

NOTE: It is recommended to use a strong password containing:

▶ More than the minimum number of characters
One or more capital letters
Numbers and/or special characters

Administrator Login: Sets the password for Administrator access to the XenSmart™ web management interface. When connecting to the Access Point through the XenSmart™ web interface, the user is prompted for a User ID (this is always admin) and Password (the default value is "admin"). It is HIGHLY recommended to change to a secure password when initially confi guring the Access Point. To change the password, simply enter the new password, confi rm the password, then click Save, and then Reboot for the change to take effect.

After confirming the desired Quick Setup configuration settings, select Save and then Reboot for the settings to take effect.
