Gemtek Systems Page 11The P-360 HiaB Access Point can work in different operation modes:• Access point mode (AP)• Access Point-Router mode (AP-Router)Difference to P-320The P-360 WLAN AP is designed to cooperate with G-6000/G-4000 hot-spot gateways. As opposedto P-320 (Wi-Fi Operator Access Point) the P-360 does incorporate routing and the Universal Access.However, P-360 can be configured as a 802.1x authenticator. In this setup the G-6000/G-4000gateway will act as a RADIUS-Proxy and controls the traffic flow. Only when 802.1x authenticationchain is successfully finished the gateway will allow Internet access.P-360 is also called “A Hot-spot in a box”, because it incorporates all necessary AAA features forsingle-cell hot-spots. P-360 typically works as a router, whereas P-320 is used as a layer2 bridgebetween wireless clients and an Ethernet backbone.P-320 and P-360 share one hardware platform incl. housing. However it is not possible for users toupgrade from P-320 to P-360 by software (or vice versa).System Requirements• Network Adapter with Ethernet (UTP CAT 5) Cabling and TCP/IP installed per PC• Web browser with enabled Java and JavaScripts for Web-based Manager• Cable Modem with Ethernet Connection and Internet Access• Windows operating system for AP search and AP upgrade toolsThe Product PackageEach ”Hot-Spot in a Box” Access Point comes with the following:• One P-360 model Access Point• One Twisted-pair LAN cable• One wall mounting assembly kit• One CD-ROM containing this User’s Guide in the Portable Document Format (PDF)If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact your reseller or Gemtek SystemTechnical Support.

Gemtek Systems Page 13This chapter describes how to install Wi-Fi “Hot-Spot in a Box” Access Point. The hardware andsoftware installation instructions are provided here.Hardware InstallationBefore you connect the Access Point, decide where to place it.Determinate the best location of the Wi-Fi Access Point, keeping in mind the following considerations:• The length of the Ethernet cable that connects the Access Point to the network must not exceed 100 meters.• The power source must be next to the installation place.• Try to place the Access Point in a dry, clean location as far from the ground as possible, suchas on top of a desk or bookcase, keeping clear of metal obstructions.• Try to place the Access Point away from transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights,microwave ovens, refrigerators, or other equipment that could cause radio signal interference.• Try to centrally locate the Access Point to provide the best coverage of the area.Attaching the Access Point to the Wall1. Place the Access Point in the desired location. Use the wall mounting assembly kit available withP-360 Access Point. Follow the instructions:• Attach the wall mounting clamp to the wall with the spring latch to the upper side using thefour enclosed screws.• Connect the rear side of the Access Point to the mounting plate:Figure 2 -- Attaching the P-320 housing to the mounting clamp• Move the housing slightly upwards until the spring latch is locked in place. The P-320Operator Access Point is now securely mounted onto the wall and can not be removedwithout special tools.2. Insert the twisted pair LAN cable to a Power-over-Ethernet socket. At least the power LED andthe LAN link LED should light up.Chapter 2 – Installation
Gemtek Systems Page 14Removing the Access Point from the Wall1. Open the housing of the Access Point by pressing the spring latches on the upper rear side of theaccess point using the disassembling tool delivered with your P-360.Figure 3 -- Removing the P-360 housing using the disassembling tool2. Release the housing from the wall mounting clamp by carefully pressing the spring latch in thecenter of the device (see Figure 3 -- Removing the P-360 housing using the disassembling tool)using the small edge of the disassembling tool.3. Move the housing slightly downward and remove it.Software InstallationInsert the installation CD delivered with your new P-360 Access Point into your CD-ROM drive.The installation wizard starts automatically and will guide you through the rest of the installationprocess. If the installation wizard does not start automatically, please run “autorun.exe” manuallyfrom the root directory of the installation CD.Software is needed for setup and management of the P-360 HiaB Access Point.In general, there are four different ways to access the device:• Windows applications: AP search and AP upgrade (installation required)• Standard HTML browser (Java and JavaScript enabled) using Configuration Manager• CLI (command line interface)• SNMPFind Your New P-360!To find your new P-360 HiaB Access Point you will need to connect the AP to the same logicalnetwork as your PC. The standard IP address of the P-360 in factory default status is 192.168.2.2. Toaccess the P-360 in its default configuration you will need to use one of the following IP settings inyour network:• IP address space 192.168.x.x• Subnet mask 255.255.0.0
Gemtek Systems Page 15Test: Calling P-360 with PingTo test the accessibility of your P-360 from your PC, just type the following from a command prompt:ping 192.168.2.2If ping replays, you can access the P-360 from this PC. Otherwise there is a problem accessing the P-360 in default status from this PC. You should either change the IP address of your PC or of the P-360.
Gemtek Systems Page 16The configuration manager provides the user interface to configure and manage HiaB Access Point(P-360). When the Access Point is installed, access the user interface using the standard Webbrowser such as Internet Explorer 6 or Netscape Navigator 6 (Java and JavaScript enabled).This chapter includes the following subsections:• Authentication• System Status• Setup Wizard• Advanced Settings• System ToolsAccessing the Web Manager Interface3. Open a Web browser on a network computer.4. In the Address or Location field, enter the IP address of a HiaB Access Point on the network.For example if the IP address for HiaB is 192.168.2.2, type: http://192.168.2.2 to access the WebManager.Your Web browser session is automatically redirected to the secured connection tothe device (https).5. The Network Authentication dialog appears as shown in the example:Figure 4 – Login to the Web ManagerEnter default login settings: root as user name and pass as password.The default user name is fixed and cannot be changed. Password can be managedusing the Advanced Settings menu.Chapter 3 - Configuration

Gemtek Systems Page 20Tx Errors are errors while transmitting data.Rx Data are data volume received successfully.Rx Errors are errors while transmitting data.Collisions are number of data packet collisions.
Gemtek Systems Page 21Setup WizardOn the first page of the Setup Wizard available ‘Hot-Spot in a Box’ device modes are listed:Figure 11 – Device Operating ModesSelect AP – Router mode, if you want to allow mobile stations to access your wired network and youneed to build up a wireless connection to a different IP subnet.Select AP mode, if you want to allow mobile stations to access your wired network.General Configuration SettingsOn the general settings page you can specify information about the name and location of your P-360.Figure 12 -- General Configuration SettingsHost Name is the name under which the device will appear for example in the AP Search tool.
Gemtek Systems Page 22DNS Server Address is the IP address of a domain name server. This IP address, provided by yourISP, will be assigned to all PCs requesting address information through DHCP from the P-360.Available in AP-Router mode only!If you are not sure about the IP address of the DNS server currently responsible foryour local network, please get your IP configuration with “ipconfig” (Win 2000, WinNT and Win XP) or “winipcfg” (Win 9x and Win Me) from the command prompt.System Identification is a more specific device name for better identification by service staff.Serial Number is the MAC address of the device and cannot be modified!Address is the street and postal address of the location where the device is deployed.The Coordinates specifies the longitude and latitude or other coordinates of the device location.Customer Name is the customer’s name.All of the parameters above on the general configuration setting page are required!Network Configuration SettingsOn the network configuration settings page you can modify the IP settings for the P-360 and thedefault gateway.Figure 13 – Network Configuration Settings
Gemtek Systems Page 23WAN Interface Settings:Interface: Use this option to switch the WAN interface of P-360 on (Enable) or off (Disable).Available in AP-Router mode only!In AP-Router mode you disable the wired interface to the Ethernet using this radiobutton. When the interface is disabled, there are no connections possible betweenEthernet devices and the P-360.IP Address assigned by ISP is the device’s IP address on the WAN interface. If the DHCP clientfunction is enabled, the IP address assigned by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server canbe found via WAN interface, the IP entered here will be used.If you change the IP address manually, please make sure that the chosen IPaddress is free and belongs to the same IP subnet as the old one. Otherwise youwill loose the connection to the P-360 from your current PC. If you enable theDHCP client via web browser, the browser will loose the connection after rebooting,because the IP address assigned by the DHCP server is not predictable.IP Subnet Mask is the corresponding network mask for the IP address on the WAN interface.ISP Default Gateway is the gateway to other networks on WAN side.DHCP Client: enable this option, when a DHCP server is running in the network on WAN side andyou want the DHCP server to assign a free IP address the WAN interface of P-360.If you are not sure about the IP address of the gateway currently responsible foryour local network or DHCP server please get your IP configuration with “ipconfig”(Win 2000, Win NT and Win XP) or “winipcfg” (Win 9x and Win Me) from thecommand prompt.LAN Interface Settings (AP-Router mode only):IP Address is the device’s IP address on the LAN interface. In AP-Router mode this is the IP addresson the wireless interface, in client router mode it is the IP address on the wired (Ethernet) interface.If you enable the DHCP server on the wireless interface in AP-Router mode, pleasemake sure that the IP address inserted for the wireless interface here is in thesame IP subnet as the IP address pool range of the DHCP server.IP Subnet Mask is the corresponding network mask for the IP address on the LAN interface.Please make sure that you use different IP subnets for the WAN and LANinterfaces. If both address spaces are in the same IP subnet, all routing functionswill be disabled!Masquerade: When you enable this function, the router will use his network address translation (NAT)function. In this case all LAN IP addresses are hidden to the WAN network behind the routers WAN IPaddress. The P-360 in AP router mode on the other side of the wireless network will forward the datapackets using his own WAN IP address to the wired (Ethernet) network it is connected to.
Gemtek Systems Page 24Wireless Configuration SettingsAccess Point SSIDDepending on the device mode selection, parameters available in the Wireless Configuration Settingspage will vary. Because of the complexity and quantity the wireless parameters are spitted into thesimple units.Figure 14 -- Wireless Configuration Settings (1)Access Point SSID is a unique name for your wireless network. It is case sensitive and must notexceed 32 characters. The default SSID is "xxxxx " but you should change this to a personal wirelessnetwork name.The SSID may not contain special characters like [ ] { } / \ or spaces. Only dots andunderscores are allowed.In Access Point mode SSID must be made known to all mobile clients, or they have to use the “autoconnect to any wireless network” function in their WLAN card.If you are running more than one P-360 and want to enable the roaming function, please use thesame SSID in all access points.Domain/ChannelFigure 15 – Wireless Configuration Settings (2)Domain: full frequency range of the 2.4 GHz ISM band is not permitted to be used in all countries.Depending on the selection of the regulatory domain here the available frequency channels will vary.Channel: Frequency channels are used to avoid interference between nearby access points. If youwish to operate more than one access points in overlapping coverage areas, we recommend adistance of at least four channels between the chosen channels. For example, for three Access Pointsin close proximity choose channels 1, 5 and 11.Refer to the regulatory domains chapter in the appendix to get more informationconcerning the regulations valid for your country and set the parameters forfrequency channel to the permitted values!
Gemtek Systems Page 25Encryption AlgorithmFigure 16 -- Wireless Configuration Settings (3)Select No, 64-Bit or 128-Bit Encryption.Key 0 to 3: The WEP keys are entered as a series of colon-separated HEX pairs:5 pairs for 64-Bit (e.g. 00:AC:01:35:FF)13 pairs for 128-Bit (e.g. 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:AA:BB:CC).Also select the active key radio button next to appropriate key.The encryption key must also be entered into the WLAN card configuration of the mobile clients.
Gemtek Systems Page 26Advanced SettingsSetting up the P-360 advanced settings requires advanced knowledge of theTCP/IP network structure and functionalities. It is recommended that only skillednetwork administrators should use these settings.ACL SettingsIn the ACL Settings page you can specify default access policy for wireless or Ethernet networkdevices.Default ACL policy for wireless network: Select Accept to allow all mobile clients to access thisaccess point or Deny to prevent all mobile clients from access to your access point. Clients may alsobe subject to rules in the Access control table.Default ACL policy for Ethernet: Select Accept to allow all LAN clients to access this access pointor Deny to prevent all LAN clients from accessing your access point. Clients may also be subject torules in the Access control table.Figure 17 – ACL SettingsIf you need to define special access rules for specific network devices, you can create your ownaccess list. Access control list is based on the networks devices’ MAC address. Just specify networkdevice MAC address and it’s access policy (accept/deny) with new rule in the Access control table.Click the Add New Rule button and define new specific rule in the following page:
Gemtek Systems Page 27Figure 188 – Add New ACL Rule• Specify the MAC address of the device you want to add to the ACL. The format is a list of colonseparated hexadecimal numbers (for example: 00:00:78:0A:CD:FF).• Select the Target of the rule, whether the specified network device should be allowed or deniedas an Access Points client.Firewall SettingsThe firewall settings allow to specify IP packet filters to enhance the data security. The firewall takeseffect between LAN and WAN and is supposed to avoid forbidden intrusion to your local network. Thefirewall rules are divided into Input and Output (in AP router operating mode) or Prerouting (in APmode) rules to assign special procedures to a certain data transmission direction.
Gemtek Systems Page 28Figure 19 – Firewall SettingsOn the main firewall settings page you will find one table for input, output or prerouting rules and aswitch to enable or disable the firewall. Within the tables you can insert new rules, modify existingones, delete rules and change their position by moving up or down.The position of a rule within the list is very important, because the list is worked through from top todown. If a packet is dropped in the first lines by a very general rule, it does not help to accept it furtherdown with a more specific rule. So please check the rules right position after defining or modifyingthem.To specify a new firewall rule please click Add New Rule and choose type of rule, it’s source,destination parameters.
Gemtek Systems Page 29Figure 190 – Add New Firewall RuleTarget – this implementation of firewall control supports two types of rules – Accept and Drop. Theappropriate policy defines what to do if the data packet received matches the rule.Source IP Address – source IP address.Source Netmask – source netmask IP address.Source Port(s) – can be specified in two ways: “All” or a given port range.Destination IP Address – specified the same as Source IP.Destination Netmask – specified the same as source netmask.Destination Port(s) – specified the same as Source port.Protocol – network protocol, which affects the rule. Can be specified as one of TCP/UDP/ICMP or“any”.ICMP Type – if ICMP network protocol is selected, then the appropriate protocol type can be chosen.Leave the Source/Destination IP and Netmasks fields empty if you want to specify itas “any”.
Gemtek Systems Page 30Isolation SettingsFigure 201 -- Layer 2 IsolationRouting SettingsRouting Settings is available when the access point is in AP-Router operationmode.Opening the page you will find a list of all present routes, each consisting of the related interface, thedestination IP address, the gateway and the subnet mask. The default values in this list are generatedfrom your current IP settings in the Network Configuration Settings menu.The routing list shows, how the router will handle data packets received on an interface at destinationto a specific IP address. In this example, all data received on the Ethernet interface with andestination IP address in the 192.168.2.0 network will be forwarded to the default gateway. All otherdata packets received on the Ethernet interface will be forwarded to the gateway 192.168.2.1. If there is more than one route specified for one destination, the metric value shows the priority, howthe router will try the routes. The metric value indexes the number of gateways between sender anddestination.
Gemtek Systems Page 31Figure 212 – Static Routing SettingsTo create a new static route please click Add New Route and select the related interface(Ethernet/wireless), specify destination, netmask and gateway IP, and metric values. Click the SaveRoute to add new static route in the Routing table.Figure 223 -- Add Static RouteDestination, Netmask and Gateway are required parameters to specify.DHCP SettingsThe DHCP server settings specify, which IP addresses are assigned to the DHCP clients in the LAN.For a P-380 in AP router mode, these are the mobile wireless stations or P-380 devices in clientrouter mode with DHCP client function enabled.
Gemtek Systems Page 32Figure 234 – DHCP SettingsPort Forwarding SettingsPort Forwarding Settings is available when the access point is in AP-Routeroperation mode.Port forwarding service provides access to computers in the LAN with dedicated services byoverriding the NAT (Network Address Translation) feature. Example of such services could be a webserver on a computer in the LAN, which should be open to public access for testing purposes. Theadministrator can define the port of the application, which should be open to public access, the LANIP address of the computer running the service and a destination port, which is used in the router tooverride the network address translation.In the Port Forwarding Settings main page you can add, modify or delete forwarding rules.Figure 245 -- Port Forwarding SettingsTo specify a new port forwarding rule please click Add New Rule and insert the port type, the localport, the destination IP address and the destination:
Gemtek Systems Page 33Figure 256 – Add Port Forwarding RuleIn this example, all requests to the P-360 on port 25 will be redirected to the IP address 192.168.2.28on port 1445.Port forwarding is a kind of reverse function to IP masquerading. Hence thisfunction can take effect only when NAT is enabled! Please refer to your firewallsettings to check if the port forwarding settings are suitable.Administrator’s SettingsYou can change the Administrator’s password using this Administrator Settings menu.Default Administrator password: Pass.Just enter old administrator password, type new one (from 4 up to 16 characters) of your choice andretype it. Click the Save Settings button to apply new administrators password to the system.Figure 267 – Administrator’s Settings

RX (blue)indicates incoming (Received) traffic and TX (red) indicates outgoing (Transmitted) traffic.TX/RX monitoring is restarted on every reboot of the device. The reason is that the device has no realtime clock, so the time used is relative to the restart time. The first statistics appear as two points, fiveminutes after the device has been restarted. A normal view is acquired 10 minutes after the P-360reboots. First click the Show button to view the initial TX/RX statistics in the browser window. Clickthe Refresh button instead of the Show button to get updated TX/RX statistics.You can also change the TX/RX graph time interval. There are two drop-down menus used for thispurpose:• The first one is used to choose the start hour of the interval. It is possible to choose any hour fromthe last 24 hours (0-24), but the choice may be limited depending on the devices reboot time.• The second drop-down is used to choose the time scale. The possible choices are from 0 to amaximum of 23 hours.For example: select time interval from 21 interval of 3 (time scale). Such selection shows graphicstarting from 21 hour after the device is started and up to 3 next hours. Following the same logic:Select from 0 interval of 24 – full TX/RX graphic is displayed.Selecting from 24 interval of 1 – the last hour TX/RX graphic is displayed.

Gemtek Systems Page 47IntroductionCLISH (Command Line Interface Shell) software is a configuration shell for Wi-Fi “Hot-Spot in a Box”Access Point device (P360). Using the CLISH interface the operator can:configure all essential Wi-Fi “Hot-Spot in a Box” configuration settings;show system and network statistics;use system tools, such as Site Survey.This manual describes the CLISH software command line interface and the command set availablefrom the shell.UsageCLISH is run by system on user login. This is done to prevent the manual modifying of configurationfiles by users that do not know the system well enough. Such modifications can make other softwareto function incorrectly thus disabling essential services. CLISH checks if arguments are correct andonly then modifies configuration settings.The password for CLISH is the same as user’s system password. If user is not a ‘root’ user, he/shewill not be able to change settings, only to view them.The Command Line Interface of CLISH does not take much getting used to. In key and keycombinations, it resembles the familiar interface of most common UNIX shells.When the <TAB> key is pressed, the current word under the cursor is completed to full length, unlessif there are multiple possibilities. Pressing the question mark ‘?’ – will show content-sensitive helpabout the available options. Other available key combinations in CLISH mode are listed in the tablebellow:Command Line Interface ShellKey and/or Combination Function?
