First-time Installation and Configuration

Before installing the AWK-6222, make sure that all items in the Package Checklist are in the box.

In addition, you will need access to a notebook computer or PC equipped with an Ethernet port.

The AWK-6222 has a default IP address that you must use when connecting to the device for the

first time.

Step 1: Select the power source.

The AWK-6222 can be powered by DC power input or PoE (Power over Ethernet). The

AWK-6222 will use whichever power source you choose.

NOTE: The ITE unit is to be connected only to PoE networks without routing to the outside

plant.

Step 2: Connect the AWK-6222 to a notebook or PC.

Since the AWK-6222 supports MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, you can use either a straight-through

cable or crossover cable to connect the AWK-6222 to a computer. If the LED indicator on

AWK-6222’s LAN port lights up, it means the connection is established.

Step 3: Set up the computer’s IP address.

Set an IP address on the same subnet as the AWK-6222. Since the AWK-6222’s default IP address

is 192.168.127.253, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, you should set the IP address of the

computer to 192.168.127.xxx.

NOTE

After you select Maintenance Æ Load Factory Default and click the Submit button, the

AWK-6222 will reset to factory default settings and the IP address will also reset to

192.168.127.253.
