are connected to the Internet
-
are reachable on the network
-
have an IP address assigned to the a through DHCP or static
Note:
-
Kiwire-hostname or Kiwire-ip can be obtain by contacting our technical support for our cloud customer. For enterprise client the ip will be on premises Kiwire ip address.
-
Social network hostname list can be obtained from Social network whitelist guide

Client - User Guide
Accessing the Graphical User Interface
Accessing the graphical user interface (GUI) requires that the radio first be connected to power. The Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection process describes the steps to do this. Note that the GUI will be available approximately one minute after applying power.
The GUI can be accessed in two ways to facilitate set-up and management.
-
Through the local Ethernet interface (LAN)
-
Remotely through the AP wireless link
Via Ethernet interface or in-band through the AP link
By default, the device IP address is 192.168.1.20 and can be accessed via the Ethernet port using this IP address in any standard Web browser. To access the device via a locally connected computer initially (on the same LAN or directly to the Ethernet port), the computer’s IP address must be on the same subnet as the above address. Once you have modified the IP address (static or is DHCP) of the device for remote management purposes (in-band over wireless or over the Ethernet interface), the new specified IP address must be used to access the device.
In addition to the C5 default IP of 192.168.1.20, Mimosa has introduced a new, persistent fallback IP address of 169.254.200.20. This non-routable IP address is always reachable regardless of a manual or DHCP assigned IP address to C5. It is recommended to this new persistent IP address when using auto-provisioning to prevent loss of connectivity to the C5. Most laptop DHCP clients will default to an IP address in this subnet, improving the ease of connectivity to an un-configured C5 unit.
