Performing the first-time setup of the Summit WM
series switch
Before you can connect the Summit WM series switch to the enterprise network, you must change the
IP address of the Summit WM series switch management port from its factory default to the IP address
suitable for your enterprise network. Access the Summit WM series switch by one of two methods:
● Use a device supporting VT100 emulation, attached to the DB9 serial port (COM1 port) of the
Summit WM series switch via a cross-over (null modem) cable. Use the Command Line Interface
(CLI) commands. For more information, see the Summit WM Series WLAN Switch and Altitude Access
Points Software CLI Reference Guide.
● Use a laptop computer with a Web browser. Connect the supplied cross-over Ethernet cable between
the laptop and management Ethernet port of the Summit WM series switch. Follow the steps below.
Accessing the Summit WM series switch
1 Statically assign an unused IP address in the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet for the Ethernet port of the
computer. For example, 192.168.10.205.
2 Launch your Web browser (Internet Explorer version 6.0 or higher, or FireFox).
3 In the browser address bar, type the following:
https://192.168.10.1:5825
This launches the Summit Wireless Assistant. The logon screen is displayed.
