Chapter 3: Configuring AP750UNe
This section provides information and procedures required to configure the AP750UNe series AP.
Logging into BaseCamp
Perform this procedure to log into BaseCamp. 1. Log into BaseCamp URL, https://<AC IP address> using the following credentials:
· Username: admin@admin.com · Password: admin Welcome to BaseCamp page is displayed.
Configuring AP750UNe Access Point
Perform this procedure to configure the AP750 series AP. 1. Configure the POE+/++ ports of the L2/L3 switch as access ports with untagged PVID.
The PoE+/++ source must identify itself as PoE+/++ capable using the 2-event classification method. For more information on configuring the AP750 series APs that are connected to POE+/++ sources that support a discovery protocol, see Configuring AP750 series AP to Work with Discovery Protocol. 2. Connect the AP750UNe Access Point to a POE+/++ source. Once powered up, the AP750UNe Access Point requests an IP address from the DHCP server. This process may take up to 90 seconds. 3. Verify if the AP750UNe was assigned an IP address by doing one of the following:
· Review the DHCP logs on the DHCP server · Log into BaseCamp to review the status in the Access Points page Along with the IP address, the AP750UNe receives the IP address of the Access Controller and establishes a connection with it.

4. The AP750UNe is manufactured with a default country code. During the discovery phase of the AP750 NRe, the Access Controller verifies the country code of the AP750 NRe before allowing it to join the network.
· If the country code registered in the non-volatile memory of the AP750UNe and the country code locked into the Access Controller software match, the AP750UNe is allowed to join the network.
· If an AP750UNe is detected with a generic country code, the Access Controller registers the AP750UNe by overwriting the generic country code with the locked country code from the BaseCamp configuration. After updating the country code, the AP750 NRe is automatically rebooted allowing it to join the network.
· If the AP750UNe is set with a different country code, the AP750UNe is quarantined and not allowed to join the network.
The transmitters on the radio modules in the AP750NRe are disabled when the country code is in generic state, or when the AP750NRe is quarantined.
5. The default mode of operation for the AP750UNe is Outdoor. BaseCamp allows certified technicians with the appropriate privileges provided by the manufacturer to reconfigure the mode of operation to Indoor when the AP750UNe is installed in indoor locations.
a. From the BaseCamp navigation pane, click Access Points.
b. From the list of Access Points, click the Configure icon of the AP750UNe.

AP750UNe Installation Guide

c. Modify the Deployment Mode: · Indoor · Outdoor
d. Click UPDATE.

Configuring AP750UNe to Work with Discovery Protocol
In some cases, a POE+/++ ethernet switch requires a Discovery Protocol such as LLDP and CDP to request additional power above the 15.4 W PoE PSE limit. In such cases, the POE+/POE++ PSE source must be configured to override the Discovery Protocol and force the PoE+/POE++ PSE source to provide at least 22.5 W/51W of PoE+/POE++ power.
Perform this procedure to configure the AP to work with Discovery Protocol.
Use extreme caution. This is a manual mode of operation. There is no action taken by the AP750NRe, if PoE+ power is interrupted. Even a single port losing PoE+ power may result in an overload on the port.
1. In the WMS Access Point menu, set the Forced POE+ Power selection to flag the AP750UNe access point to ignore the POE+ status.
The AP750UNe AP automatically resets when the new Forced POE+ Power selection configuration is saved. All the AP750UNe hardware resources are available after rebooting the AP750UNe.
