## AP Discovery Tools

#### To start the Administration Tools under Microsoft Windows

- Click Start | Programs | Intel® Wireless | Access Point Administration Utilities then choose AP Discovery.

### Determine the IP Address of the Access Point

Before you can manage the access point using the browser interface, you have to know the IP address of the access point. You can use the AP Discovery application to find access points on your network and determine the IP address of each.

Intel® PRO/Wireless 5000 LAN Access Point

- By default DHCP is Disabled in Access Point settings. Contact your network administrator to determine the IP address of the access point, or use the AP Discovery tool to determine it. On a static IP network without DHCP support, you can also use the default IP address 192.0.2.1 to gain access to the access point's browser-based interface for configuration purposes. See the Intel PRO/Wireless 5000 LAN Access Point User's Guide for details.

Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011B or 2011 LAN Access Point

- By default DHCP is Disabled in Access Point settings. Contact your network administrator to determine the IP address of the access point, or use the AP Discovery tool to determine it. On a static IP network (without DHCP support) you can also use the default IP address 192.0.2.1 to gain access to the access point's browser-based interface for configuration purposes. See the Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Access Point User's Guide for details.

When you start AP Discovery, the window below displays.

Click the Advanced button to search for access points within a specific IP address range. The Advanced Search Settings dialog box is shown below.
