Other Access Methods: DHCP IP Address

The WAP is configured to DHCP by default so that the DHCP server can assign an IP address when the WAP is connected to the network (the DHCP server is usually the router). This address can be used for accessing the web interface.

Use one of these methods to find the IP address of the WAP:

• Check the client table on your router

• Use a network scanner (e.g. Fing) to sniff the network. The

Araknis WAP manufacturer field will display “Snap AV”

• See the highlighted field in the "Fing" screenshot to the right for an example of an Araknis device being identified.
