Section 1 - Product Overview

Introduction

The D-Link DBA-1210P Business Cloud Wave 2 Access Point provides continuous, high-speed access between wireless devices

and Ethernet devices. It is an advanced, standards-based solution for wireless networking in businesses of any size. The

DBA-1210P enables wireless local area network (WLAN) deployment while providing state-of-the-art wireless networking

features.

The DBA-1210P is managed through the D-Link Business Cloud, with an intuitive browser-based interface that enables rapid

deployment. Since the DBA-1210P is self-conguring and managed over the web, it can even be deployed at a remote location

without on-site IT sta.

This document also describes how to perform the manual networking conguration of DBA-1210P in case of it not being able

to connect to D-Link Business Cloud through the internet.

Before you power on a new DBA-1210P, review the following sections to check required hardware and software components,

client congurations, and compatibility issues. Make sure you have everything you need for a successful launch and test of

your new or extended wireless network.

6D-Link DBA-1210P User Manual

Section 1 - Product Overview

• Automatic Self Conguration - The DBA-1210P will automatically connect to the D-Link Business Cloud to

perform its self-conguration and management, meaning it can even be deployed at a remote location without

an on-site network administrator. The D-Link Business Cloud also helps to manage the deployment of new

features, bug xes, and enhancements, which are automatically pushed to the DBA-1210P.

• Faster Wireless Networking - The DBA-1210P provides an up to 1.75 Gbps1wireless connection with other

802.11ac wireless clients. This capability allows users to participate in real-time activities online, such as video

streaming, online gaming, and real-time audio.

• Compatible with IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac Devices - The DBA-1210P is still fully compatible with the 802.11a/b/

g/n/ac standards, so it can connect with any existing 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless adapters.

• Dual Band Wireless Radio - The DBA-1210P comes equipped both 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz high powered internal

radios that help to provide better wireless coverage and increased signal strength.

• PoE Enabled - The DBA-1210P supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) which enables it to be supplied with Ethernet

over a power cable.

• Convenient Installation - The DBA-1210P features a wall/ceiling mount for easy deployment in a variety of

locations.

• StreamlinedDesign-TheDBA-1210Pisdesignedwithaslimformfactorthateasilyblendsintoanyoceenvironment

1Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n and 802.11ac specications. Actual data throughput will vary.

Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network trac, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual

data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely aect wireless signal range.

Section 2 - Installation

Dynamic and Static IP Addressing on the AP

When you power on the access point, the built-in DHCP client searches for a DHCP server on the network in order to obtain

an IP Address and other network information. If the AP is not able to be assigned a DHCP IP on the network, you can manually

recongure the static IP address and relevant network setting through device Administration Web UI or CLI interface.

To manually congure network setting through device AdministrationWeb UI, please refer to“Web-based Conguration Utility”

on page 13

You can manually congure network setting through device CLI as well by any of the following methods:

• Serial Port Connection to the AP

• Telnet Connection to the AP

• SSH Connection to the AP

Please refer to“Device CLI Conguration”on page 17 for more information on how to congure the DBA-1210P using the CLI.

Caution! If you do not have a DHCP server on your internal network, and do not plan to use one, the rst thing you must do

after powering on the access point is to change the connection type from DHCP to static IP and assign a new static IP address

to the AP.

Caution! The default login information is admin/admin for both the Web UI and CLI. Please note that the credentials might

have been changed through the D-Link Business Cloud.
