3 Software Configuration

The gateway supports two configuration options:

• Standalone Mode: Configure and manage the gateway by itself.
• Controller Mode: Configure and manage network devices centrally. This is recommended for large-scale networks, which consist of a large number of Omada wireless gateways and/or Omada devices such as access points, switches.

Note:

1. When the gateway is managed by a controller, configurations of the gateway will be overridden by the controller.
2. For detailed configurations, refer to the User Guide of the gateway and the controller. The guides can be found at https://support.omadanetworks.com/document/.

Option 1: Standalone Mode

1. Connect your device to the gateway with an Ethernet cable or wirelessly using the default SSID (network name) printed on the label at the bottom of the gateway.

   Note: If your computer is configured with a fixed IP, change it to Obtain an IP address automatically.

2. Launch a web browser, enter https://omadaer.net, and then follow the web instructions to complete the quick setup.

   Note: Ensure that the ports you select as WAN ports align with the actual setup.
