Overview
The TAP-6226 outdoor dual-RF track-side wireless AP provides a complete and flexible solution for railway
train-to-ground applications in demanding environments. The TAP-6226 is rated to operate at temperatures
ranging from -40 to 75°C, and its dustproof and weatherproof design is IP68-rated, allowing you to install the
unit outdoors in the open or in tunnels. With two independent RF modules, the TAP-6226 supports a greater
variety of wireless configurations and applications. It can also increase the reliability of your entire wireless
network by enabling redundant wireless connections. The TAP-6226 has two AC power inputs for redundancy
to increase the reliability of the power supply, and can be powered via PoE. The TAP-6226 is a fully integrated
AP and switch, with fiber ports and AC power supply in one box, and is ideal for use as a track-side AP for
train-to-ground communication applications, including CBTC and CCTV.

Functions
LED Indicators
The LEDs on the front panel of TAP-6226 allow you to quickly identity the wireless status and settings.
The FAULT LED will light up to indicate system failure or user-configured events. If the TAP-6226 cannot
retrieve the IP address from a DHCP server, the FAULT LED will blink at one second intervals.
The following table is a summary of the wireless settings and LED displays. You can check the status of the
TAP-6226 by reading these LEDs. More information about “Basic Wireless Settings” is presented in Chapter 3.

ATTENTION
When the LEDs for
STATE (Green), FAULT, WLAN1, and WLAN2 all light up simultaneously and blink at
one
-second intervals, it means that the system failed to boot. This may be due to an improper operation or
uncontrollable issue, such as an unexpected shutdown during a firmware update.
To recover the firmware,
refer to
“Firmware Recovery” in Chapter 6.
Reset Button
The RESET button is located on the bottom panel of the TAP-6226. You can reboot the TAP-6226 or reset it to
factory default settings by pressing the RESET button with a pointed object such as an unfolded paper clip.
•System reboot:Hold the RESET button down for less than 5 seconds and then release.
•Reset to factory default:Hold the RESET button down for over 5 seconds until the STATE LED starts
blinking green. Release the button to reset the TAP-6226.
NOTE
For security reasons, the reset button can be configured to be disabled for 60 seconds after the
device reboots.

2. Getting Started
This chapter explains how to install Moxa’s AirWorks TAP-6226 for the first time, quickly set up your wireless
network, and test whether or not the connection is running properly. With the function guide, you can easily
find the functions you need.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:

TAP-6226 Getting Started
2-2
First-time Installation and Configuration
Before installing the TAP-6226, 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 TAP-6226 has a default
IP address that you must use when connecting to the device for the first time.
Step 1: Connect to a power source.
The TAP-6226 can be powered through the 110/220 VAC power input using an M23 power cable (must be
purchased separately).
Step 2: Connect the TAP-6226 to a notebook or PC.
Since the TAP-6226 supports MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing, you can use either a straight-through cable or
crossover cable to connect the TAP-6226 to a computer. If the LED indicator on TAP-6226’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 TAP-6226. Since the TAP-6226’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

Load Factory Default and click the Submit button, the TAP-6226 wil
l reset
to
factory default settings and the IP address will also reset to 192.168.127.253.
Step 4: Use the web-based manager to configure the TAP-6226
Open your computer’s web browser and type http://192.168.127.253 in the address field to access the
homepage of the web-based Network Manager. Before the homepage opens, you will need to enter the user
name and password as shown in the following figure. For first-time configuration, enter the default user name
and password and then click on the Login button:
NOTE
Default user name and password:
User Name: admin
Password: root
For security reasons, we strongly recommend changing the default password. To do so, select
Maintenance

Password
, and then follow the on-screen instructions.

NOTE
After you click
Submit to apply changes, the web page will refresh, and then the string “(Updated)” and a
blinking reminder will be displayed on the upper
-right corner of the page, as illustrated below.
To make the changes effective, click
Restart and then Save and Restart
after you change the settings. About
30 seconds are needed for the TAP
-6226 to complete its restart process.
Step 5: Select the operation mode
By default, the TAP-6226’s operation mode is set to Wireless redundancy. You can change the setting in
Wireless Settings

Operation mode if you would like to use Wireless bridge or AP-Client mode instead.
Detailed information about configuring the TAP-6226’s operation mode can be found in Chapter 3.

Configuration by Web Browser
Moxa TAP-6226’s web browser interface provides a convenient way to modify its configuration and access the
built-in monitoring and network administration functions.
NOTE
To use the TAP
-
6226’s management and monitoring functions from a PC host connected to the same LAN as the
TAP
-6226, you must make sure that the PC host and TAP-
6226 are on the same logical subnet. Similarly, if the
TAP
-
6226 is configured for other VLAN settings, you must make sure your PC host is on the management VLAN.
The Moxa TAP
-6226’s default IP is 192.168.127.253.
Follow the steps below to access the TAP-6226’s web-based console management.
1. Open your web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer) and type the TAP-6226’s IP address in the address field.
Press Enter to establish the connection.
2. The Web Console Login page will open. Enter the password (User Name is set as admin; the default
password is root if a new password has not been set.) and then click Login to continue.
You may need to wait a few moments for the web page to load on your computer. Note that the Model name
and IP address of your TAP-6226 are both displayed in the web page title. This information can help you identify
multiple TAP-6226 units.
You can use the menu tree on the left side of the window to open the function pages to access each of
TAP-6226’s functions.

In the following sections, we will review each of the TAP-6226’s management functions in detail. You can also
get a quick overview of these functions in the “Function Guide Map” section of Chapter 2.
ATTENTION
The model name of the TAP
-6226 is shown as TAP-6226-
XX where XX indicates the country code. The country
code represents the TAP
-6226 version and which bandwidth it uses. We use TAP-6226-TC
as an example in
the following figures. The country code of
the
model name on the screen may vary if you are using a different
version (band) TAP
-6226.
ATTENTION
For security reasons, you will need to log back into the T
AP-6226 after a 3-minute time-out.

Queue Scheduling
Setting Description Factory Default
Queue Scheduling Weight: This method services all traffic queues, with priority
given to the higher priority queues. In most circumstances, the
weight method gives precedence to high priority over low
priority, but if the high priority traffic does not reach the link
capacity, lower priority traffic is not blocked.
Strict: This method services high traffic queues first; low
priority queues are delayed until no more high priority data
needs to be sent. The strict method always gives precedence to
high priority over low priority.
Strict
Active This setting activates or deactivates the LAN port for queue
scheduling.
