Web Graphic
User Interface
(GUI)
Management
Workstation
In this manual, the AT-UWC WLAN Controller on a server and
AT-UWC-60-APL device are referred as the AT-UWC WLAN Controller or
WLAN Controller.
The AT-UWC WLAN Controller is accessed via the Web Graphic User
Interface (GUI).
The following web browsers are supported:
Microsoft Windows Explorer 7
Microsoft Windows Explorer 8
Microsoft Windows Explorer 9 using the Compatibility View
You access the AT-UWC WLAN Controller Web GUI using a management

Preparing the Management Workstation
Note
To access the AT-UWC WLAN Controller, you must have a management
workstation.
The management workstation is a computer that you use to manage the
AT-UWC WLAN Controller. The management workstation must be
connected to the network that the AT-UWC WLAN Controller server
belongs to. See an example shown in Figure 1.
Chapter 1: Getting Started
Figure 1. AT-UWC WLAN Controller and Management Workstation
The AT-UWC WLAN Controller server has the following default IP address
and subnet mask assigned:
192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0
For the first time you access the AT-UWC WLAN Controller, your
management workstation must have an IP address in the following range:
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254
To change the IP address of the management workstation, see
“Changing the IP Address” on page 21.
15
AT-UWC WLAN Controller Web GUI User’s Guide
Starting a Management Session
The AT-UWC WLAN Controller is managed from the management
workstation through the Web GUI.
To start a management session of the AT-UWC WLAN Controller, do the
following:
1. Login to the management workstation.
If you do not have a management workstation, see “Preparing the
Management Workstation” on page 15.
2. Open Internet Explorer 7 or 8, and enter the IP address of the
AT-UWC WLAN Controller server.
The default IP address is
