Aruba RAP-155 / RAP-155P Remote Access Point Installation Guide The Aruba RAP-155 and RAP-155P are dual-radio, dual-band wireless access points (AP) that offer wired and wireless network access, zero-touch provisioning, identity-based access control, policy based forwarding, air monitoring, and wireless intrusion protection across the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
(802.11a/b/g and 802.11n) bands. The Aruba RAP-155 and RAP-155P ship with the Aruba Instant software. Therefore, out of the box, the Aruba RAP-155 and RAP-155P operate as a Virtual Controller (VC) or an Instant AP. However, the Aruba RAP-155 and RAP-155P can be converted to operate as a Remote AP (RAP). For information about the IAP to RAP conversion, see RAP Conversion. On the RAP-155P, port E1 and E2 have PoE power sourcing capability (PSE) to supply power to two 802.3af powered device (class 0-4) on E1 and E2 port or one 802.3at powered device on either E1 or E2 port. DC IN (Power Socket) The RAP-155 or RAP-155P power adapter (included) connects to the DC IN port. The RAP-155 or RAP-155P does not have an On/Off switch. The device turns on when the power adapter is attached and plugged into a power outlet. The device turns off when you disconnect the power adapter from the power source
(outlet). The Aruba RAP-155 and RAP-155P require Aruba Instant 3.3 or higher version when deployed as an Instant AP and ArubaOS 6.3 or higher version when deployed in conjunction with a Mobility Controller. The RAP-155 ships with a 12V power supply and the RAP-155P ships with a 54V power supply. These power supplies are not interchangeable. USB Port The RAP-155 or RAP-155P is equipped with a USB port to support cellular modems.

E0 is an uplink port and E1-E4 are downlink ports. E0: WAN port E1: LAN port E2: LAN port E3: LAN port E4: LAN port Serial Console Port The serial console port is located at the bottom of RAP-155 or RAP-155P and closed by a rubber insert when not in use. To use this port for troubleshooting, remove the rubber insert and connect the serial adapter cable to the port. The RAP-155 or RAP-155P does not ship with a serial adapter cable. This cable is available as accessory with the part number AP-CBL-SER and should be ordered separately.

The reset button is located on the rear of the device and is recessed in a small, round hole. To reset the RAP-155 and RAP-155P, insert a small, narrow object, such as a pin or paperclip, into the hole and press and hold the button for 5-10 seconds while powering on the RAP-155 and RAP-155P. This will return the device to factory default settings. RAP-155 and RAP-155P Installation Figure 4 Stand Installation Connecting the Required Cables The RAP-155 or RAP-155P must be connected to a network device that has access to the Internet, such as a router or modem. To complete the installation of the RAP-155 or RAP-155P:
1. Connect one end of the provided RJ-45 cable to port E0 on the RAP-155 or RAP-155P. 2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to a free RJ-45 port on your modem or router. 3. Attach the provided power adapter to the DC IN port on the RAP-155 or RAP-
155P. 4. Connect the other end of the power adapter to a power outlet. The RAP-155 or RAP-155P is now powered on. To verify this, ensure that the PWR LED is solid green. Verifying Successful Installation Once the RAP-155/RAP-155Ps PWR LED has come up, the device will take 2 to 3 minutes to complete the boot cycle. Once the boot cycle is complete, you can connect to your company or corporate network. RAP Conversion If your network administrator has instructed you to convert the RAP-155 or RAP-
155P to work in RAP mode, follow the process below to complete the RAP conversion. 1. Power up the RAP-155 or RAP-155P. 2. Connect to Instant SSID. 3. Login to the RAP-155 or RAP-155P by navigating to http://
instant.arubanetworks.com and login to the Instant UI. The default username is admin and the default password is admin. See the included Aruba Instant Quick Start Guide for more information. 4. Navigate to the Maintenance tab in the top right. 5. Click on the Convert tab. 6. Select Remote APs managed by a Mobility Controller from the drop down menu. Tabletop Mounting The RAP-155 and RAP-155P ship with a stand to use on flat (i.e. table top) surfaces. Place the RAP-155 and RAP-155P in the stand (see Figure 4) and place the stand on a flat, level surface. 7. Enter the IP address of the controller. This is provided by your network administrator. 8. Click Convert Now to complete the conversion (see Figure 5). 9. The RAP-155 or RAP-155P will reboot and begin operating in RAP mode. Figure 5 IAP-RAP Conversion over the Internet Wall Mounting Instructions The two mount holes (the center-to-center distance is 26mm) are covered by the plastic plate with Aruba logo on the back of the RAP-155 and RAP-155P as shown in Figure 6.
