1 Product Overview
The R250D-E in Huawei Agile Distributed W
high-density rooms and complex wall structures, such as schools, hotels, hospitals, and office
meeting rooms. Huawei R250D-E uses an 86 mm plate in compliance with international
standards and can be easily installed into an 86–type box in a room. It is equipped with a
built-in antenna and a hidden indicator; therefore, installation of the R250D-E does not affect
indoor decorations or designs. It also has an IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ac Wave 2 wireless
module and can work on both 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz frequency bands. It supports PoE power
supply, and can be directly connected to a central AP and deployed in a room. The central AP
and the R250D-E are connected through network cables, which greatly extends the coverage
range, enhances flexibility in AP deployment and planning, and reduces the engineering
construction costs.

lMAC address label
lSN label
NOTE
If a PoE adapter or a DC power adapter is required, you need to purchase it separately.
2.4 Determining the Installation Position
. Then, investigate causes and
lDo not deploy the device in places with high temperature, dust, noxious gas, unstable
voltage, much vibrations, or strong noise, or in places near flammable or explosive
materials and interference sources such as a large radar station, radio station, and
transformer station.

l Connects to ST
As through downlink network ports.
l CAT5e cables or higher must be used.
l The length of a network cable cannot exceed 100 m.
However, when the GE1/PoE_OUT port is used for
PoE output, the network cable inserted in this port
cannot be longer than 20 m.
l The GE1/PoE_OUT port supports PoE output and
provides a maximum of 10 W power output.
NOTICE
l The GE1/PoE_OUT port complies with the category
detection mechanism of 802.3af.
l Do not insert a PoE input cable into the GE1/PoE_OUT port.
l Connects to the Ethernet port of an upper
-layer PSE
through the uplink network port.
l The GE0/PoE_IN port supports PoE input.
l CAT5e cables or higher must be used.
l The length of a network cable cannot exceed 100 m.
NOTE
l If the R250D-E needs to connect to the Ethernet, ensure that the Ethernet cable is working properly
If the Ethernet cable is not working properly, the R250D-E may fail to be powered on or fail to
work. Before connecting an Ethernet cable to the R250D-E, use the cable test tool to check whether
the cable is qualified. If the cable is unqualified, replace it.
l The R250D-E is powered by either the DC power supply or PoE power supply.
l When the R250D-E works in 802.3af power supply mode, the USB port and PoE_OUT port have no
power output; when it works in 802.3at or DC power supply mode, the USB port and PoE_OUT port
have power output.
Pay attention to the following points when bundling the cables:
lDifferent types of cables must be separately routed with the minimum spacing of 30 mm
and cannot be entangled or crossed. Cables should be parallel or separated using
dedicated separators.

3 Logging In to the Device
3.1 Logging In to the Device Using STelnet/Telnet
Y
ou can log in to the device using STelnet V2 or Telnet to configure, manage, and maintain
the device in the CLI.
NOTE
l By default, only the STelnet V2 service is enabled on the device.
l Telnet has security vulnerabilities. You are not advised to enable the Telnet service.
Before logging in to the device, complete the following tasks:
lPower on the device.
lPrepare network cables used to connect device interfaces.
The following table lists the default configuration of the device. You are advised to change the
default user name and password on your first login.
Table 3-1 Default configuration of the device
ParameterDefault Setting
User nameadmin
Passwordadmin@huawei.com
IP address169.254.1.1
Subnet mask255.255.0.0
NOTE
If the device is already online on the AC, you can remotely log in to the AC on a local terminal and run the
display ap all command to check the IP address of the device.
The following example uses the default parameters and is used for reference only
.
Step 1 Use network cables and a LAN switch to connect the PC to the network interface of the
device.
Step 2 Assign the PC with an IP address on the same network segment as the default IP address of
the device so that the PC and device are reachable to each other.
If the device uses the default settings, the IP address of the PC must be in the network
segment 169.254.0.0/16 but cannot be 169.254.1.1. 169.254.1.100 is recommended.
Step 3 Start the CLI on the PC and access the IP address 169.254.1.1 of the device using STelnet V2.
Step 4 Enter the user name and password as prompted to log in to the user interface.

power sourcing equipment causes PoE
power supply errors, such as the PoE
function is disabled or the power-off
time range is incorrectly set.
3. Check whether the network cable or
distribution frame is faulty.
4. If the device still cannot be powered on,
