1 Quick Start

The EAP Controller is a management software for the TP-Link EAP devices. It allows you to centrally manage your EAP devices using a web browser. You can configure EAPs in batches and conduct real-time monitoring of each EAP in the network.

Follow the steps below to complete the basic settings of the EAP Controller.

1.Determine the Network Topology

2.Install the EAP Controller

3.Inform the EAPs of the Controller Host's Address

4.Start and Log in to the EAP Controller

5.Create Sites and Adopt the EAPs

6.Monitor and Manage the EAPs

1.1 Determine the Network Topology

There are two kinds of network topologies to centrally manage EAPs via the EAP Controller:

·The EAP Controller and EAPs are in the same subnet.

·The EAP Controller and EAPs are in different subnets.

Determine your management method according to your need and refer to the following introductions to build your network toplogy.

1.1.1 Management in the Same Subnet

If your EAP Controller and EAPs are in the same subnet, refer to the following network topology.

A router acts as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to EAPs and clients. EAP Controller should be installed on one host, which is called as Controller Host. The other hosts in the same LAN can access the Controller Host to manage the network. Taking the following topology as an example, you can enter “192.168.0.100:8043“ in a web browser on Host B to visit the EAP Controller interface on Host A. It's recommended to set a static IP address to the Controller Host for the convenient login to the EAP Controller interface.

Host A (Controller Host)

IP: 192.168.0.100/24

Router (DHCP Server)

Internet

Layer 2 Switch

LAN IP:192.168.0.1/24

EAP Controller

EAPs

Host B

IP: 192.168.0.200/24

Clients

Note

··The EAP Controller must be running all the time when you manage the network.

··The EAP Controller can be running on only one host in a LAN. When other users in the LAN try to launch EAP Controller on their own hosts, they will be redirected to the host that is already running EAP Controller.

1.1.2 Management in Different Subnets

If your EAP Controller and EAPs are in different subnets, refer to the following topology.

A router acts as the gateway of the network. A layer 3 switch acts as a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to EAPs and clients. The Controller Host and the EAPs are connected to the switch's different network segments. To help the EAPs find the Controller Host, EAP Discover Utility should be installed on Host B which is in the same subnet with the EAPs. For how to use EAP Discovery Utility, refer to 1.3 Inform the EAPs the Controller Host's Address for detailed instructions.

Host A (Controller Host)		Layer 3 Switch
IP: 192.168.1.100/24			Router	Internet
		(DHCP Server)

EAP Controller	192.168.1.0/24		LAN	WAN
		192.168.2.0/24

Once the basic configuration is finished, the browser will be redirected to the following page. Log in to the management interface of EAP Controller with the username and password you have set in the basic configuration.

Note:

In addition to the Controller Host, other hosts in the same LAN can also manage EAP devices via remote access to the Controller Host. For example, when the IP address of the Controller Host is 192.168.0.100 and the EAP Controller is running normally on this host, you can enter https://192.168.0.100:8043/login, or https://192.168.0.100:8043, or http://192.168.0.100:8088 in the web browser of other hosts in the same LAN

to log into the management interface and manage EAP devices.

1.5 Create Sites and Adopt EAPs

The EAP Controller can manage multiple EAP networks, which are called sites. Multiple sites are logically separated, and each site has its own configurations. There is an initial site named Default. If you have no need to manage EAPs with different sites, you can use the default site and skip the Create Sites section. However, Adopt the EAPs is a necessary step to manage the EAPs.

1.5.1 Create Sites

Follow the steps below to add sites.

1. Click in the top left corner of the page and select , and then the following window will pop up.

2. Click and set a name for the site.

3. Click Apply to create the site.

1.5.2 Adopt the EAPs

The EAP Controller can discover all EAP devices currently connected in the network and display their connection statuses. All the EAPs are in Pending status when first discovered by the EAP Controller. To manage the EAPs, you need to adopt them. In the quick setup process, the EAP Controller will automatically adopt the selected EAPs using the default username and password (both are admin). However, if you have changed the username or password of your EAPs before, the EAP Controller cannot automatically adopt the them.

To ensure that all EAPs are adopted, follow the steps below:

1. Select a site and go to Access Points > Pending. The table displays all the EAPs that have not been adopted.

2. Click the Retry button in the Action column and enter the current username and password of the EAP. Click Apply.

Tips

··If you have a new discovered EAP, you can click the Adopt button in the Action column to adopt the EAP. The EAP Controller will automatically adopt the EAP using the default username and password (both are admin).

··If you have multiple new discovered EAPs, and all of them have the default username and password (both are admin), you can click the Batch Adopt button to adopt them all at once. But if there are any EAPs with the Retry button, it means that the username and password of these EAPs have been changed. You need to first adopt them before batch adopt the rest EAPs.

3. Wait for a moment, the EAPs will be adopted and the status will change to Connected. All the EAPs’ username and password will become the same as those of the Controller's administrator account you created in the Basic Configuration.

Tips

If you want to change the EAPs' username and password, please refer to Device Account.

1.6 Monitor and Manage the EAPs

When all the configurations above are finished, you can centrally monitor and manage the EAPs via the EAP Controller's management interface. The management interface is mainly divided into three sections as the following screen.


Section A	In Section A, you can check the status of EAPs and clients in the network. Also,
	you can click	to refresh the current page, click		to globally configure the
	wireless network, and click		to sign out from the management interface.

	Most Active	The current connected client with the maximum traffic.
	Client
	All-time Top	The client with the maximum traffic among all the clients that have ever
	Client	accessed the EAP network.

2.2.3 View Current Usage-Top EAPs

This tab lists the hostname, the number of connected clients and the data traffic condition of the ten APs with the most traffic currently.

	Clients	The amount of clients connected to this EAP.

	%Clients	The proportion of current connected clients to the Top EAPs' total client
		amount.
	Traffic	The total amount of data transmitted by this EAP, which equals the sum of the
		transmission traffic of all the current clients that connect to the AP.
	%Traffic	The proportion of the EAP's current data transmission amount to the Top EAPs'
		total transmission amount.

2.2.4 View Recent Activities

The Recent Activities statistics can be toggled between a view for the past specific 24 hours and one for the past specific 30 days.

The left ordinate axis indicates the traffic and the right one represents the number of the clients. The abscissa axis shows the selected time period. Traffic indicates a visual graph of the network traffic during the selected time period. Client indicates a visual graph of the number of the connected clients during the selected time period. For example, the statistics information at 10:00 indicates the traffic size and client number from 9:00 to 10:00. In the following figure, at 10 o’clock, the traffic is about 8 and there is 1 client connected to the AP.

2.3 Monitor and Manage the EAPs
