AP Behind A Router

n8xja
I didn't see this in another post but forgive me if its a dup. 

I would like to use an AP that is on a network that is connected to the "inside" network via a router. The network behind the router, has its own dhcp server.

Forgive the ascii art:

internet
   |
   |
ASG/UTM
   |
   |
Trusted internal network
   |
   |
cisco router
   |
   |
Trusted internal network 2
   |
   |
AP30

How does the AP30 find the ASG/UTM to retrieve its configuration?

    The Cisco must route 1.2.3.4 to the UTM. 


    Was that what you were missing?

    Cheers - Bob

    Bob - hey man, thanks for the response. This isn't a question of routing, the network is working just fine. Sorry for not being more clear. When I plug in the AP on network2, it is going to get its IP, subnet, gateway, dns, from the dhcp server. But I don't know how the AP figures out where to find the ASG on network1 for its configuration.  That's the bit of magic I'm asking about.

    That's the reason for routing 1.2.3.4 to the ASG. [:)]

    OH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ok the mechanism is now clear. I thought your 1.2.3.4 was "fill in your network here"! LOL

    So the AP looks for its config from IP 1.2.3.4

    Thanks Bob!
