Chapter 1 - WL1700 Setup Installation Overview ECTION In order to keep the initial setup easy, you may wish to keep the network scaled to a maximum number of 100 MH240 handsets. Some manual modification of the initial configuration is required in order to adjust the IP addressing to the customer’s network.
Chapter 1 - WL1700 Setup Setup Preparation ECTION Copy the following files to the computer before going onto the setup: • TFTP server program • “Initial configuration” files for the MH240 • Latest WL1700-MS software file Chapter 1 1 - 3...
Chapter 1 - WL1700 Setup WL1700-MS Setup ECTION 1.4.1 Initial Configuration for WL1700-MS Assign the IP address to 192.168.100.100/24 on the console computer. Access the WebView of the WL1700- MS (IP address: 192.168.100.10) from the browser, using Internet Explorer 6 or later, and then enter the initial configuration.

If a reset hasn’t been performed on the WL1700-MS yes (ex: if there was no software upgrade required), turn off the WL1700- MS in order for the edited initial configuration to take effect.
Verify with the network administrator to be sure there are no DCHP server conflicts. Access programming for the UX5000. In the example below, WebPro access is used as the example. Using Internet Explorer 6 or later, access WebPro (by default, the IP address is 172.16.0.10). Configure the internal DHCP server.

ECTION 1.6.1 Confirm the System is Running When the UX5000 setup is done, the internal access point (WL1700-MS) and WL1500-AP-A access points should connect to the UX5000 and start functioning. (The WL1700-MS and WL1500-AP-A require PoE for power.) Note: The assigned IP addresses must allow all devices (WL1700, WL1500, UX5000, TFTP server) to be on the same network (ex: 172.16.xxx.xxx with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0).
