Araknis x20 Series Access Point User Manual

This manual details the web user interface and configuration of Araknis X20 series access points (APs).

First time setup tips

  • This AP requires 802.3at (30W) PoE. Do not use 802.3af (15W) or a passive PoE injector as 15W is only enough to power the device, connect to OvrC, and broadcast an SSID with minimal throughput.

  • For jobs with multiple APs, consider using OvrC to configure the SSIDs for all APs at once. See Getting Started With OvrC Wi-Fi Management for more information.

  • All Araknis access points transmit the same default SSID, araknis_initial. If multiple access points are being installed in the same network, without using OvrC for SSID setup, power on and configure one AP at a time to avoid confusion about which access point you are connecting to.

  • Araknis Networks recommends the use of MAC reservations, instead of static IP addresses.

  • You must change the login credentials during initial setup.
