Installation and Connection

This section describes how to install a

DWC-2000 in a standard 19-inch equipment

rack and how to connect cables and power to

the device.

Before You Begin

Observe the following precautions to help

prevent shutdowns, equipment failures, and

injuries:

• Before installation, always check that the

power supply is disconnected.

• Ensure that the room in which you are

operating the device has adequate air

circulation and that the room temperature

does not exceed 40 °C (104 °F).

• Ensure there is at least one meter (three

feet) of clear space in front and back of the

device.

• Do not place the device in an equipment

rack frame that blocks the air vents on the

sides of the chassis. Ensure that enclosed

racks have fans and louvred sides.

• Ensure that none of these hazardous

conditions exist before installation: moist

or wet oors, leaks, ungrounded or frayed

power cables, or missing safety grounds.

Step 1 – Unpacking

Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack

its contents. Please consult the following

packing list to make sure that all items are

present and undamaged. If any item is missing

or damaged, please contact your local D-Link

reseller for a replacement.

Step 2 – Installation

You can mount the DWC-2000 into a stand-

ard 19-inch equipment rack. To install the

DWC-2000 into a rack:

1. Attach the mounting brackets to each side

of the chassis as shown in Figure 5 and

secure them with the screws provided.

Figure 5. Mounting Brackets

2. Use the screws provided with the equip-

ment rack to mount the device in the rack

as shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6. Mount into the Rack

Step 3 – Connecting the Device

to a Network

This section provides basic information about

physically connecting the DWC-2000 to a

network.

Connect the necessary cables as shown in

Figure 7.

Figure 7. Connecting to Your Network

1. Connect an RJ-45 cable from one of the

ports labelled LAN (1-4) to a switch in the

LAN network segment.

2. Connect an RJ-45 to DB-9 cable from the

console port to a workstation to use the CLI

(Command Line Interface) for management.

Step 4 – Powering on the Device

The AC power cord shipped with the device

connects the device to earth ground when

plugged into a grounded AC power outlet. The

device must be grounded during normal opera-

tion.

To connect the device to a power source, plug

one end of the AC power cord into the AC power

connector on the back panel of the device. Plug

the other end into an electrical outlet and switch

ON the power switch.

Note: We recommend using a surge protector

for the power connection.

Initial Conguration

The wireless controller software is preinstalled

on the DWC-2000. When the device is powered

on, it is ready to be congured. It comes with a

default factory conguration that allows you to

connect to it, but you should congure the con-

troller for your specic network requirements.

Discovering the Wireless

Controller

Using the Web UI

To use the Web UI, the workstation from which

you are managing the device must initially be

on the same subnet as the device. You will also

need a compatible browser:

Browser Minimum Version

Microsoft

Internet Explorer 9, 10

Mozilla Firefox 23

Apple Safari iOS: 6.1.3

Windows: 5.1.7

Google Chrome 26

To access the device’s Web UI:

1. Connect your workstation to one of the ports

labelled LAN (1-4).

2. Ensure your workstation is congured with

a static IP address in the 192.168.10.0/24

subnet.

Note: To avoid issues, disable any pop-up

blocking software or add the management

IP address http://192.168.10.1 to your

pop-up blocker’s allow list.

3. Launch your browser and enter the IP

address for the LAN interface (The default

IP address is http://192.168.10.1), then

press Enter.

4. Log into the wireless controller Web inter-

face. The default login information is:

• Username: admin

• Password: admin

Figure 9. Login Page

Connecting via Console (RJ-45 to DB-9

DCE)

The DWC-2000 Wireless Controller provides a

serial port that allows you to connect to a com-

puter or terminal for monitoring and conguring

the device. This port is an RJ-45 connector,

and is implemented as a data communication

terminal equipment (DCE) connection.

To use the console port connection, you

need the following equipment:

1. A terminal or a computer with both a serial

port and the ability to emulate a terminal.

2. The included RJ-45 to DB-9 cable.

3. If your laptop or PC does not have an

RS-232 connector, a converter (not includ-

ed) is required.

To establish a console connection:

1. Plug the RJ-45 connector end of the sup-

plied RJ-45 to DB-9 cable directly into the

console port on the wireless controller.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to a

terminal or to the serial connector of a com-

puter running terminal emulation software.

Set the terminal emulation software values

as follows:

• Baud rate: 115200

• Data bits: 8

• Parity: None

• Stop bits: 1

• Flow control: None

ENGLISH

3. Connect the wireless controller following the

instructions in the “Powering on the Device”

section in this guide. The boot sequence will

be displayed on the terminal.

4. Once the boot sequence is completed, the

command prompt will be displayed and the

device is ready to be congured.

Discovering and Managing the

Unied AP

Figure 10. Network Topology

To discover and manage the Unied AP:

1. Record the MAC address of each Unied

AP on the network.

2. Connect the Unied AP you want to cong-

ure to the local area Ethernet network.

3. Log into the DWC-2000 and set the LAN IP

address to be in the subnet of the local area

Ethernet network.

4. Go through the Wizard to manage your

access points. Click “Wizard” at the top right

corner.

Figure 11. Wizard

5. Click the “Run…” button to run the WLAN

Wizard.

Figure 12. Run WLAN Wizard
