Powering up

The AP can be powered by either PoE or the optional AC power adapter (sold
separately).

To power up the access point:

1 Connect power using a POE injector or POE switch, or with the optional AC

power adapter (sold separately).
The access point should now be up and running with its default settings. It does

not need to be configured to be functional. To make changes to the SSID and
security settings, you need to access the AP using a web browser.

44

Logging in to the access point

To log in to the access point:

1 Connect the access point to your PoE switch with an Ethernet cable.
2 Log in to your Pakedge router to find the IP address assigned to the access point

under the DHCP Client Table.

Tip: If you do not have a router in your network that distributes IP addresses, you

can try to access the access point through its default IP address of 192.168.1.21.

3 Enter that IP address into a web browser to open the access point interface. The

Sign In page opens.

Note: Because the AP uses self-signed certificates for secure connection to the

web browser, a security message will appear. There is no risk in proceeding to the
AP’s web interface, and communications will remain secure.

4 In the username box, type admin. In the password box, type password, then click

Sign In. The first time you log in, the Configure page opens.

55

5 Enter and verify a new username and password (required) before continuing, then

click Apply to complete the setup.

Caution: For international models, you must change the Country Code (a drop-down

list defaulting to GB - United Kingdom), to the specific country of operation.

66

Registering your device with BakPak Lite

You can connect your access point to your existing BakPak account or create a new
account to manage all of your BakPak network management agents.

To register your device to your BakPak account:

1 In the device’s Connections tab, to the right of the “This product is not managed

by BakPak” message, click Click here to enroll.

2 Follow the on-screen instructions to complete your device registration.

77

Creating a BakPak site for WA Series APs

To begin managing and configuring the AP, you need to create a BakPak site for it.

To create a BakPak site:

1 Log in to your BakPak account, then click Add Site to create a site.
2 In the Management Agent list, select the first WA-2200, complete the site

information, then click OK.

88

Adding WA Series APs to the site

After the BakPak site is created, the WA-2200 will act as the “master AP” for adding
more WA Series APs to the site.

To add APs and provision them with the existing configuration:

1 Make sure that the master AP is already configured (through the local UI or

BakPak), and that the additional APs are turned on for at least five minutes and
connected to your network.

2 In BakPak, select the new WA-2200 site, then click Device Discovery.

Any additional WA Series APs are discovered and appear as tiles that can be
selected (already selected by default).

3 Click OK. The APs are added to the site.

99

4 To apply the master AP’s settings to the new APs, in the BakPak site select the

master AP, then complete the site information and click Save & Apply Multiple at
the bottom. The settings are copied to the new APs.
