HIRSCHMANN IT DAP640-RW Access Point
This Quick Start Guide assists you in quickly connecting to and configuring DAP. To learn more please refer to the DAP User Manual. DAP can be also managed by DAC platform, please refer to the DAC User Manual.
Note
To keep DAP working in Cluster mode, please ensure there is no DHCP option 43 and 138 in the network. With DHCP option 43 or 138, the DAP comes up in DAC mode.
Typical topology
Figure 1: Wi-Fi Network Topology
- All APs connect to a PoE switch and the PoE switch connect to a router which provides DHCP service for APs and Wi-Fi users.
- If AP receives option 43 or option 138 from the DHCP server specifying the management IP, the AP will boot up and entering to DAC mode. Else the
- AP will enter Cluster mode.
- APs in one cluster should be in the same Layer 2 network. (Tip: You can firstly config one AP then power on others to join the cluster automatically.)
- If DAP couldn’t finish initialization, please check
- Ethernet cable status
- POE is enabled on the switch port that AP connected.
AP Initialization
Step 1: How to Access AP Web Page
By default, DAP will broadcast the WLAN ‘mywifi-xxxx’ (xxxx = the last two
bytes of the AP MAC address). You can connect to ‘mywifi-xxxx’ and browse
http://find.dragonflyap.com:8080 to access the AP web page.
Figure 2: AP Login Page
Recommend to access AP web Page by Chrome Browser for best user experience.
About Login Accounts
Choose Administrator and default password is admin. Login AP web page, and you
can access Figure 3. Select “Cluster” to cluster mode, or you can select “DAC”
to DAC mode.
Figure 3: AP Wizard – Mode Selection
There are three pre-configured login accounts: Administrator, Viewer and GuestOperator. You may modify the account password, but the account name isn’t modifiable. Administrator can configure and check the AP status, Viewer can check the AP status ONLY, while GuestOperator can check the AP status and register accounts for portal authentication. By default, the password for all accounts is ‘admin’ and the wizard will guide you to modify the Administrator password upon AP login.
More detailed configuration guide, please refer to DAP User Manual.
Welcome Page
When initially logging into an AP from Figure 3, a configuration wizard will
pop up. The following steps show how to use the setup wizard to modify the
Administrator password and create a WLAN.
Figure 4: AP Wizard – Welcome Page
Modify Administrator Password
The password must be composed of numbers and capital or lower-case letters of
the English alphabet and with a length of 4-16 characters.
Figure 5: AP Wizard – Modify Admin Password
Note: The page below will be displayed to select the country or
region
Create New WLAN
For example, create a WLAN, “DAP_MGMT”for network management purpose, select
‘Both (WPA&WPA2)’ security method and set the password to be ‘abc123!#’. By
default, portal authentication is disabled when creating a WLAN. If you want
to enable the portal page authentication, please refer to the User Manual for
details.
SETUP WIZARD

| 1x 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing (RJ-45) port, Power
over Ethernet (PoE).
Console
| The console port is an RJ-45 female connector and can be used to connect to a terminal for direct local management.
Note : Currently for use by Service & Support only.
USB| USB 2.0 host interface (Type A, output current 0.5A )
Reset
| Factory reset. Press reset button for 5s, AP LEDs will quickly flash for 3s, then AP will restart and restore factory
configurations.
Security| The AP is equipped with a security lock slot for additional
AP Installation
- Follow the steps below for all new AP installations:
- Mark two drilling hole center marks on the wall at a proper location. Make sure they are of the same height to the ground and have a distance of 100mm between them, equivalent to that between the holes of the AP (see Figure 4).
- Drill two holes at the center marks about 6mm in diameter and 25mm in depth. This is approximately the same size as the wall anchors (see Figure 5).
- Insert two wall anchors and tap them into the holes (see Figure 6).
- Insert two screws into the wall anchors with 2mm length left remaining (see Figure 7).
- Push the mounting bracket along the direction of the arrows until it locks in the slot (see Figure 8-10).
- Connect the cable to the port on the AP.
- Align the bottom holes of mounting bracket with the mounting screws (see Figure 11). After inserting push down on the AP until it is secure (see Figure 12). The installation is complete.
