READ ME FIRST - AP COMPATIBILITY
This XAP-1230 is compatible with the Luxul Wireless Controller for fast, easy
configuration and deployment of wireless networks with multiple APs.
nNote: If you’ll be using this AP with a Wireless Controller, refer to
the Quick Install Guide included with the Wireless Controller for
setup instructions.
AP SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
1Physical Installation
The XAP-1230 access point is designed for simple and ecient installation and
setup. Install the two included antennas by screwing one to each of the two
SMA antenna connectors on the rear panel. Two keyholes allow for easy and
flexible mounting on a wall, or for desktop/shelf mounting, use the impressions
on the enclosure for placement of the included rubber feet.
XSingle Access Point Placement: Because the signal generated by the
XAP-1230 is omnidirectional, the unit should be located as near as possible to
the center of the desired coverage area.
XAP-1230 Single AP Coverage Pattern
XMultiple Access Point Placement: You may need to experiment with
AP placement to optimize the roaming experience. Place APs to ensure
adequate coverage, but not so far apart that there is no signal overlap.
Adjacent APs should overlap enough that the client device has a good
connection to the AP to which it is currently attached, but also sees the
next-nearest AP. Ideally, roaming clients should see signal strength of
two overlapping APs in the range of -60 to -70 dBm at the midway
point between two APs. To learn more about AP placement, visit
luxul.com/ap-placement.

2Connecting Antennas, Ethernet and Power
Ethernet and Power
With two antennas installed and the XAP-1230 properly mounted, plug the
Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 connector on the Access Point.
The XAP-1230 is PoE ready and supports 802.3af PoE. A PoE injector is
included with the device. To apply power, simply connect the opposite
end of the Ethernet cable to which the access point is connected to the
provided PoE injector or other PoE switch or injector. An Ethernet cable
length of up to
300 feet can be used.
nNote: Category-6 shielded twisted pair is recommended for best
results and stable data transmission at the highest data rates.
However, Category-5, super Category-5 or Category-6 unshielded
twisted pair (CAT5/CAT5e/CAT6 UTP) cable can also be used.
PoE Injector Setup
XData In: Connect an Ethernet cable from your router or switch to the
Data In port of the included PoE Injector
XData & PWR Out: Connect an Ethernet cable from the Data & PWR Out
port of the included PoE Injector to the PoE Port of the XAP-1230
XAC Power: Connect the included AC Cord to the Power Input of the
Included Injector first and then to the AC outlet.

3Preparing for Access
IP Addressing
If the XAP-1230 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, Access and Setup.
nNote: If another device on your network shares the 192.168.0.10 address,
you’ll need to temporarily reassign or remove that device while
you configure the XAP-1230.
If your network uses an address scheme other than 192.168.0.X, you’ll need
to set a temporary static IP address on the computer you’re using for config-
uration. To do so, set the IP address of your computer to an address in the
192.168.0.X range, then set the Gateway/Router address to 192.168.0.10 (the
default IP address of the XAP-1230).
Once you’re finished configuring the AP, you can return your computer’s IP
configuration to normal, typically “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”
nNote: Visit http://luxul.com/ip-addressing to learn more about
changing your computer’s IP address and getting connected.
4Access and Setup
Getting Connected
XConnecting Via an Ethernet Device: Use Ethernet cable to connect your
computer to the PoE switch or PoE injector to which the XAP-1230 is
connected. Ethernet is the preferred method of connection.
XConnecting Via a Wireless Device: Connect your client device to the
XAP-1230 default wireless network named Luxul1230. The wireless network
will run in Open Security mode, so no passphrase is required until Wireless
Security is configured.
Logging In
To access the AP’s web configuration, open your web browser and enter the
AP’s default 192.168.0.10 IP address in the address field. Log in to the AP using the
default user name and password:
Default IP: 192.168.0.10
Username: admin
Password: admin
nNote: If another device on your network shares the 192.168.0.10 address,
you’ll need to temporarily reassign or remove that device while
you configure the XAP-1230.
nNote: The XAP-1230 is not a router and will need to be connected to a
network with a router in order to deliver Internet access.
5Hardware Operation
LED Indicators
Power: If the Power LED is On, the XAP-1230 is
powered. If the Power LED is OFF, the XAP-1230 is
not receiving power or the LED has been turned o
in the AP’s software interface. The Power LED blinks
when the XAP-1230 is booting.
LAN Link/Activity: If the LED is On, there is an active Ethernet connection.
If the LED is O, there is no active Ethernet connection. Flashing indicates
Ethernet activity.
WLAN Status: If the LED is On, the wireless radio is active and wireless
access is enabled. O indicates The wireless radio is not active and wireless
access is disabled.
Bridge Mode: If the LED is On, the Bridge is connected. If the LED is
Flashing, Bridge Mode is enabled but not connected. if the LED is o, the AP
is in default “Access Point” mode.
PoE Injector: If the PWR LED is On, Power is Connected
to the injector. If the PWR LED is O, the injector is not
receiving power.
Reset Button: The Reset button is located on the rear
panel of the XAP-1230 and is used to restore factory default
settings. To Restore Default Settings, with the XAP-1230
powered on, press and hold the Reset button for 10 seconds,
then release.
cCAUTION: Holding the Reset button for more than a few seconds
will restore the AP to factory default and remove any
custom configuration.

Four: Rubber Feet
READ ME FIRST - AP COMPATIBILITY
This XAP-1230 is compatible with the Luxul Wireless Controller for fast, easy
configuration and deployment of wireless networks with multiple APs.
nNote: If you’ll be using this AP with a Wireless Controller, refer to
the Quick Install Guide included with the Wireless Controller for
setup instructions.
AP SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
1Physical Installation
The XAP-1230 access point is designed for simple and ecient installation and
setup. Install the two included antennas by screwing one to each of the two
SMA antenna connectors on the rear panel. Two keyholes allow for easy and
flexible mounting on a wall, or for desktop/shelf mounting, use the impressions
on the enclosure for placement of the included rubber feet.
XSingle Access Point Placement: Because the signal generated by the
XAP-1230 is omnidirectional, the unit should be located as near as possible to
the center of the desired coverage area.
XAP-1230 Single AP Coverage Pattern
XMultiple Access Point Placement: You may need to experiment with
AP placement to optimize the roaming experience. Place APs to ensure
adequate coverage, but not so far apart that there is no signal overlap.
Adjacent APs should overlap enough that the client device has a good
connection to the AP to which it is currently attached, but also sees the
next-nearest AP. Ideally, roaming clients should see signal strength of
two overlapping APs in the range of -60 to -70 dBm at the midway
point between two APs. To learn more about AP placement, visit
