About This Installation Guide
This guide is designed to familiarize you with the general layout of the EAP110,
EAP120 and EAP220, describe how to perform the hardware installation, and how
to configure the EAP Controller software in your network. Your EAP has more
features and functionalities which can be found in the User Guide.
Conventions
Unless otherwise noted, the EAP or the device mentioned in this guide stands for
300Mbps Wireless N Access Point EAP110, Wireless N Gigabit Access Point EAP120
and EAP220.
Network Topology
A typical network topology for the EAP is shown below.
Controller Host

EAP
Clients
To deploy an EAP in your local network, a DHCP server is required to assign IP
addresses to the EAP and clients. Typically, a router acts as the DHCP server.
Ensure the EAPs are in the same subnet with the Controller Host in which the EAP
Controller software is installed.
The EAP can be managed by the EAP Controller software, which is a management
software specially designed for the TP-LINK EAP devices on a local wireless
network, allowing you to centrally configure and monitor mass EAP devices using
a web browser on your PC. The EAP can also work independently as a standalone
device.
