System and Network Configuration Overview

Configure the following system and network settings for the access point:

• Interface on the SRX Series device to which the access point is connected.
• System settings, which include:
  • Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
  • Console port baud rate.
  • Ethernet settings, including static IP address and default gateway, management and untagged VLAN IDs, and DNS server address.
• If your network uses IEEE 802.1x standard port-based network authentication control to allow devices to connect, the access point can be configured to provide a username and password for authentication.
