CHAPTER 6. BSU AND S UBSCRIBER CONFIGURATION6–32070-20000340-01 Rev AConfiguring Service Flow ClassifiersIn a multiservice environment, classifiers are used to direct subscriber traffic to dif-ferent service flows. Therefore, until at least two service flows have been defined, theClassifier tab will be grayed out.Note that upstream and downstream traffic are separately assigned to service flows.See Table6-P for definitions of the classifier parameters.To define service flow classifiers:1. Click on the Classifier tab and then the Upstream tab so that the screen illus-trated in Figure6-16 is displayed.2. Assign upstream traffic to a service flow as follows: a.

6–39070-20000340-01 Rev ACHAPTER 6. BSU AND S UBSCRIBER CONFIGURATIONOTHER CONFIGURATION METHODSOnly configuration changes made using the WaveCenter Configuration Manager canaffect the PacketWave System’s configuration file on the TFTP server.A limited set of configuration changes can be made in real time via the Web andSNMP interfaces. But such changes are not recorded in, and cannot be saved to, theconfiguration files on the TFTP server. When the configured equipment (Base StationUnit or subscriber Indoor Unit) is rebooted, it will revert to the parameters in thestored configuration file, and all changes made via the Web interface or SNMP willbe lost.Therefore, configuration changes via the Web Interface or SNMP are recommendedonly for testing and troubleshooting purposes. Should a configuration change need tobe made permanent, you must use the WaveCenter Configuration Manager to updatethe relevant configuration file on the TFTP server.NOTE: If a configuration change is made to operating parameters using the Web orSNMP interface, and then duplicated using the CM and saved to the TFTP server,the change will essentially survive a reboot. This is a way to make permanent con-figuration changes without immediately rebooting the system.

CHAPTER 7. NETWORK CONFIGURATION AND START-UP7–2070-20000340-01 Rev AFigure 7-1 PacketWave System ServersRequired and Recommended ServersMake sure that the Base Station Unit can access the following servers:•DHCP Server — The server from which the Base Station Units and subscriberIndoor Units obtain:-IP addresses-Subnet masks-Default gateways-TFTP server IP address-Other server IP addresses-BSU and SU configuration file namesNOTE: If the DHCP and the BSU are not on the same subnet, the BSU’s subnetmust include a DHCP relay agent to pass the BSU’s DHCP requests to the properDHCP server. Also, subscriber Indoor Units can collectively be assigned a differentDHCP server than the one used by the BSU.
7–3070-20000340-01 Rev ACHAPTER 7. NETWORK CONFIGURATION AND START-UP•TFTP Server — The server from which the Base Station Units and subscriberIndoor Units download configuration files.•SNTP Server — A Simple Network Time Protocol server is recommended forsynchronizing the PacketWave Base Station Unit’s date and time with othersystems on the network. (If there is no SNTP server, the Base Station Unit’sdate and time must be set via the Web interface.)NOTE: Subscriber Indoor Units obtain the date and time from the BSU. Wheneverthe BSU’s date/time is changed, it downloads the new date/time to all subscriberIndoor Units.•DNS Server — Access to a DNS server is necessary for the resolution ofInternet domain names.Optional ServersDepending on the features and functions to be implemented, additional servers maybe required. These servers can be identified in the DHCP server configuration or inthe BSU configuration.NOTE: If different servers of a particular type are identified, the server identified inthe DHCP configuration will prevail.•SMTP Server — A Simple Mail Transfer Protocol server is required for theemailing of event alerts. (Alternatively, this server can be identified in the BSUconfiguration.)•Syslog Server — A syslog server may be specified for logging of event mes-sages from the Base Station Units. (Alternatively, this server can be identifiedin the BSU configuration.)•DHCP Server for CPE — A different DHCP server than the one used for theBSU can be specified for Subscriber Indoor Units.•SNMP Managers — All Base Station Units and subscriber Indoor Unitsinclude SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agents which can beaccessed by an SNMP manager for monitoring and limited configuration.The SMTP, Syslog, and CPE DHCP servers can be identified via the WaveCenterConfiguration Manager’s BSU — MAIN — IP Servers screen. (The SMTP andSyslog servers can also be specified in the DHCP server’s configuration file.) TheSNMP managers are identified via the BSU — SNMP and CPE — SNMP screen
CHAPTER 7. NETWORK CONFIGURATION AND START-UP7–4070-20000340-01 Rev APreparing the TFTP ServerThe PacketWave System uses the TFTP server for storing files and downloading themto Base Station Units and subscriber Indoor Units on request. Any third-party or pub-lic domain TFTP server may be used.Ensure that configuration files for all Base Station Units and subscriber Indoor Unitsare stored in the default directory (typically \tftpboot) of the TFTP server, and that theTFTP server is running.Configuring the DHCP ServerA variety of DHCP servers are available. Their configurations follow the same generalprinciples, but vary in implementation, terminology, and user interfaces. DHCP con-figuration should be performed by personnel knowledgeable about both DHCP in gen-eral and the particular DHCP server to be used. Whichever DHCP server is employed,it should be configured to include the parameters identified in Table 7-A.CAUTION: Take special care to ensure that the BSU and subscriber configu-ration file names entered in the DHCP configuration are exactlythe same as the files created using the WaveCenter ConfigurationManager and stored on the TFTP server. A newly-installed unitwill not be able to operate properly if it cannot locate and down-load its configuration file.Table 7-A DHCP Configuration RequirementsServers Required: TFTPRecommended: SNTP, DNSOptional: SNMP, SMTP, POP3Subnets (Scopes) Subnets / Subnet MasksRouters / GatewaysEach Base Station Unit Hardware Ethernet / MAC addressFixed IP address for backhaul interfaceconfiguration file nameEach Subscriber Indoor Unit Hardware Ethernet / MAC addressFixed IP address for wireless interfaceconfiguration file nameSubscriber Hosts IP addresses if the subscriber Indoor Unit functions as a bridgeDNS server if the subscriber Indoor Unit functions as a NAT router
7–5070-20000340-01 Rev ACHAPTER 7. NETWORK CONFIGURATION AND START-UPSYSTEM START-UPOnce all of the configuration files have been created, start the PacketWave System byperforming the following steps:1. Verify that all of the configuration files have been saved in the default directoryon the TFTP server.2. Verify that the TFTP server is running and accessible.3. Verify that the DHCP server has been configured for network addresses and forall BSUs and subscribers.4. Verify that the DHCP server is running and accessible.5. Boot the Base Station Unit. It will download its configuration, obtain its IPaddress, and initialize automatically.6. When the Base Station Unit has finished initializing, boot the subscriber IndoorUnits.7. Initialize each subscriber Indoor Unit using the CPE Installation Tool, asdescribed in the PacketWave 100 Series Subscriber Equipment Installation andOperation manual. When a subscriber Indoor Unit has been initialized, it willdownload its configuration, obtain IP addresses, and join the network.ADDING BASE STATION UNITS AND/OR SUBSCRIBERSTo add one or more Base Station Units and/or subscribers to an existing cell:1. Launch the WaveCenter Configuration Manager.2. Use the Configuration Manager to create configuration files for the newdevice(s) as described in Chapter 6.3. Save or copy the configuration file(s) to the default directory of the TFTPserver.4. Add the required information about the device(s) in the DHCP server’s config-uration file.5. Boot the new devices.
CHAPTER 7. NETWORK CONFIGURATION AND START-UP7–6070-20000340-01 Rev AOTHER CONFIGURATION METHODSOnly configuration changes made using the WaveCenter Configuration Manageraffect the PacketWave System’s configuration data base. A limited set of configuration changes can be made in real time via the Web andSNMP interfaces, but such changes are not permanently stored. When the configuredequipment (Base Station Unit or subscriber Indoor Unit) is rebooted, it will revert tothe stored configuration, and all changes made via the Web interface or SNMP willbe lost.Therefore, configuration changes via the Web Interface or SNMP are recommendedonly for testing and troubleshooting purposes. Should a permanent configurationchange need to be made, you must use the WaveCenter Configuration Manager toupdate the relevant configuration files on the TFTP server.
8–1070-20000340-01 Rev A8MANAGEMENT INTERFACESThe PacketWave system supports real-time monitoring and limited “on-the-fly” con-figuration changes via a Web-browser-accessed Graphical User Interface (GUI) andSNMP. There is also a simple command line interface (CLI) for basic troubleshootingand debugging.WEB INTERFACE (GUI)Each Base Station Unit and Subscriber Unit includes a Java-based graphical userinterface (GUI) which runs on a standard Web browser (Netscape 4.74 or higher, orInternet Explorer 5.0). Functions of the Web GUI include:•Viewing network topology.•Monitoring status and performance.•Reviewing configuration.•Making basic configuration changes.•Resetting Base Station Units, BSU wireless interfaces (WSSs), and subscriberIndoor Units.
