Accessing WNM managed Access Point from a local network

In certain scenarios, the administrator needs to log in to a Wireless Network Manager(WNM) managed Access Point(AP) from the local network. Access to SonicWave from the local network may be needed to run specific diagnostic tests to check the gateway and Internet connectivities or to manage the SonicWave itself.

• SonicWave access from the local network is disabled by default. To enable SonicWave local access, log in to Wireless Network Manager(WNM) and navigate to Policies | AP Policies | Edit the AP Policy for which local access is needed.
  

• Navigate to System | Management section and enter the Admin User Name and Password. Click Okay.

• Now we need to find out the Private IP address that SonicWave has got. To know the IP address, navigate to Network | Devices. In this case, the SonicWave has got 192.168.1.2 address.

• Access the IP address in the browser and enter the Username and Password.
