AP650 WiNG5.X Default Configuration
An AP650 Access Point running WiNG 5.0.0.0-107R or higher firmware includes the following factory default
configuration:
1. No regulatory, regional or contact information.
2. A default username admin and password Motorola.
3. The SSHv2 remote management interface is enabled.
4. Will obtain IP addressing from DHCP on VLAN 1.
5. Radios are configured for client services.
An AP650 Access Point running WiNG 5.0.0.0-005R has a different factory default configuration and should be
configured using Part Number 72E-135967-01, Configuring an AP650 as a Sensor Only.
Log into the AP650
1. Using a SSH tool such as PuTTy connect to the IP address assigned to the AP650 from the DHCP server.
2. Log in using the default username/password.
login as: admin
admin@192.168.11.101's password: Motorola
Note The latest WiNG 5.X firmware requires you to change the default password when you
initially connect to the AP650 Access Point.
3. When prompted enter a new password.
Welcome to CLI
System is currently using the factory default login credentials.
Please change the default password to protect from unauthorized
access.
Enter new password: hellomoto
Confirm new password: hellomoto
Password for user ‘admin’ changed successfully.
Please write this password change to memory (write memory) to be
persistent.
Basic Configuration Procedure (All Deployments)
