 Preparing for Access

IP Addressing

If the XWC-1000 is connected to a network with a 192.168.0.X address 
scheme, and your computer shares a similar address on the same network, 
you can skip to the next step, 

Getting Connected

.

 

n

Note:

 Be sure a DHCP server is present on the network and 

that all Luxul APs and the XWC-1000 Wireless Controller will 

share the same subnet.

 
If your network doesn’t use a 192.168.0.X IP address scheme, you will need 

to manually change the IP address of your computer to be able to config-

ure the XWC-1000 Wireless Controller so that it is on the same subnet as 
your network. For help setting the IP address of your particular operating 
system, visit

 Getting Connected

Access the Setup Wizard by opening your web browser and enter the Wireless 
Controller’s default 192.168.0.19 IP address in the address field. Log in to the 

Wireless Controller using the default user name and password:

 

Default IP:  192.168.0.19 

 

 

Username:  admin 

 

 

Password:  admin 

 

c

Caution:

 If there is another device on the network already  

using the 192.168.0.19 address, you’ll need to either temporarily 
disconnect or reconfigure that other device, or manually 
configure the Wireless Controller with a different address  
on a separate isolated network.

 Wireless Controller Configuration

Follow the built-in Setup Wizard in the Wireless Controller. The Wizard will walk 

you through creating a configuration profile, then it will automatically configure 

and manage all available APs on the same network. You may add or remove APs 

to or from the managed profile at any time.

 Hardware Operation - Wireless Controller

Selecting front-panel LED color

Use the switch on the rear panel of the XWC-1000 Wireless 

Controller to switch the Power and System LEDs on the

equipment in the rack where the Wireless Controller is 
sharing space.

LED Indicators

If the green power LED is ON, the XAP-810 is working. If 
the Power LED is OFF, the AP is not receiving power or 
the LED has been turned off in the AP’s web interface. 
If the power LED is blinking, the XAP-810 is booting. The 

two blue LEDs indicate indicate each of the 2.4GHz and 
5GHz networks are configured and broadcasting.

Reset Button:

The Reset button is located underneath the mount and 

marked RESET. It may be used to reboot the AP or to 
restore factory default settings.

To Reboot the AP: With the XAP-810 powered on, simply 
press and release the Reset button.

To Restore the Default Settings: With the XAP-810 powered on, press and 

hold the Reset button for at least 5 seconds. Release the button, the LED 

will flash rapidly and the XAP-810 will be set to factory defaults.
