Saving configuration
Saving the current configuration settings to the hardware device is a one-
step process:
Use this File Menu option to save the base station configuration
parameters to the location from which they were read. If the
configuration was read from a base station, it will be saved to the CSU
from which it was read. If the configuration was read from a file, the
modified configuration will be saved back to that file.
To import a saved configuration to an CSU, first connect to the base
station using Open Remote Config, then use Import Config File.
1. From the File Menu, select Save Config.

Troubleshooting
192
WLAN Cable Access Point 6220 NTPM99CA 01 Rel 1.0 Issue 3 Dec 2004
1. APU Power cannot be Turned ON.
Check that the CATV Power (45VAC ~ 95VAC) is supplied thorough the
coaxial line by measuring the AC Voltage Level.
If no power signal is detected at the end of the coaxial cable, you should search a
problem point on the CATV Network while moving up toward the ONU and
UPS Power supply.
2. LED 2(Link 1) is continuously blinking after running a long time and all
network entity including APU cannot receive IP address from DHCP
server.
Measure the RF signal level at the end of the coaxial cable or monitoring port in
the APU enclosure. Also check whether or not the RF signal level is beside the
range of required signal. If so, adjust the power level by tuning all related
network facility to meet the requirements for the operation of the Cable Modem.
* Normal Power level (DOCSIS): +15 to -15 dBmV
3. LED 3(Link 2)/LED 4(Radio Link) are turned off.
In the AP Configurator, select and click the setup tap, move to “interface” to see
whether or not Ethernet 2 and 802.11 is enabled. If disabled, check each
interface. If the LED lights are still turned off in spite of this work, the APU
system may have failed. If so, contact the Nortel local representative or technical
support center.
4. How do I see and configure a setup parameter of the CSU without a radio
connection to the APU?
The only devices that will display in the Configurator local scan window are the
units in the same subnet as your management computer. If the device in question
is not displayed in your local scan window, change the IP address (Client PC) to
any one of the subnet IP address groups “198.17.74.XXX” and then, you can
find out the CSU entity with the IP address “198.17.74.254”.
5. Why can CSU setup a radio connection to the APU?
Such situations are caused by various reasons as below:
- Mismatching between the radio setup parameter of APU and that of CSU
+ Radio Channel
+ Network ID (NWID)
+ WEP Encryption Key
- Radio Link Designing Problem(Link Distance, Antenna Direction and so
on)
193
WLAN Cable Access Point 6220 NTPM99CA 01 Rel 1.0 Issue 3 Dec 2004
6. How many CSU subscribers can connect to a single WLAN Cable Access
Point (APU Secure Data mode)?
Eight CSU subscribers can connect to a single WLAN Cable Access Point in
secure data mode.
7. How does the number of CSU Secure Data modes affect wireless
throughput?
As more CSU Secure Data modes are added, the APU Secure Data mode Base
Station mode is still able to effectively manage the throughput of the overall
wireless link. Just as on any shared medium, each station's throughput is
determined by the overall usage of the wireless link. The more stations
transmitting on the link at a time, the lower each individual station's throughput
goes. However, Secure Data mode performs in such a way that up to a point, the
more heavily loaded the network becomes, the higher the overall throughput
becomes.
For example, due to the intricacies of our Adaptive Dynamic Polling algorithms
and Secure Data mode 'fairness' principles, a single-user FTP session does not
use all of the possible wireless bandwidth. But when performing several
different transfers to and from different CSU Secure Data modes, the actual
overall bandwidth of the Secure Data mode network increases. In general, the
heavier a Secure Data mode network is loaded, the higher the total bandwidth
used becomes.
8. How do I check throughput?
Network throughput can be tested and analyzed using the Ping Fill test. This test
dynamically fills the network connection with ICMP Echo (ping) packets and
waits for the responses from the target station. Since each packet sent is echoed
back to the sender, this tests the overall wireless throughput in both directions.
Choosing the correct parameters is crucial to obtaining accurate Ping Fill test
results. The speed at which the target station responds to the ICMP Echo packets
is crucial to correctly assess the speed of the wireless link.
The IP stacks in some PC operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows, often
do not respond quickly enough to the ICMP Echo packets to obtain an accurate
assessment of your network throughput. When running the Ping Fill test to a
Microsoft Windows system, your results may be slightly lower than normal
throughput.
9. How do I read the configuration from a device if I cannot see the unit in the
local scan window?
The only devices that will display in the Configurator local scan window are the
units in the same subnet as your management computer. For example your PC
has an IP address 64.22.33.13 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and your
194
WLAN Cable Access Point 6220 NTPM99CA 01 Rel 1.0 Issue 3 Dec 2004
device has an IP address of 65.23.11.2 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. The
device in question would not display in your local scan window.
Even though you may be able to ping the unit it may not be visible in the local
scan window. In the Configurator, select the file menu, and then open remote
config and then type in the IP and the password. It may be necessary to select
the "this device is in my local subnet" check box to actually read the
configuration from the unit. Attempt to read the configuration with it un-checked
first. If the configuration cannot be read try with this box checked.
10. I seem to have lost or forgotten the read/write password to manage my
product.
How can I get back in to manage the unit?
If the read/write password has been lost or forgotten, there is only one thing that
can be done about this in order to be able to manage the unit again. The unit
must be put into force reload mode and the firmware must be reloaded. All
configuration settings will be lost. Physical access to the unit is required in order
to accomplish this procedure.
11. I am performing a wireless link test from a CSU Secure Data mode and one
of my CSU Secure Data modes on the other side of my base station is
showing up, is this a problem?
It is a normal function to be able to see the other units in the wireless link test
this way. This shows you what devices are within range so that the radio can
"hear”. As long as the units are set as Secure Data mode CSU Secure Data
modes, there is no way they will actually be communicating with each other.
They are receiving radio signals from each other that they have to interpret and
dump. This is not an optimal solution and should be changed when it is practical
to do so by isolating antennas, changing polarity or reducing output power if
possible.
12. Please provide the list of parameters for the different levels of signal
strengths i.e. No Connection, Poor, Acceptable, Good, and Excellent. How
do I determine what is good and bad?
What these values will mean, is somewhat specific to the environment being
worked under. For example, a Signal to Noise Ratio of 15 may be fine for one
area and 15 may not work very well in a high noise area. So here are some
general guidelines. Keep in mind all the information below is related to Secure
Data mode, for 802.11b mode replaces retransmit with dropped packets:
There are some further items to note:
Link planning should be done in your general geographic area and your links
should be set up with an extra margin that your company determines.
Links are best performed when possible with high gain antennas as opposed to
195
WLAN Cable Access Point 6220 NTPM99CA 01 Rel 1.0 Issue 3 Dec 2004
low gain amplified antennas
Noise is typically introduced by failing amplifiers and problems with connectors
and defective radios. Signal typically drops with bad cabling, connectors or
antenna misalignment, radio power issues Network ID and Channel values being
the same, may help stability in marginal links.
Marginal (sporadic links) typically occur in SNR ranges from 5-9, 10-15 usually
will keep association with retransmits or some packet loss. SNR from 16 and up
usually are acceptable for every day operation.
If SNR is over 25 and throughput is poor, overdriving or multi-path may be the
cause of the problems.
Secure Data Mode Station Entries - Provides information on octal packet,
retransmitted packets and failed packets. A value other than 0 under failed
packets typically points to a link issue. Keep in mind TC retransmits a packet 9
times, (with the initial packet 10 total).
This has occurred and the packet has been dropped when a failure occurs.
Retransmits should be 15% or less of total transmits, this may indicate signal,
noise or antenna alignment issues.
Remote Statistics - Check each Ethernet Interface, any errors or collisions may
be signs of link speed or greater network related issues.
Check each wireless interface. Specifically, compare the Frame Check Sequence
errors to the bytes in values. Typically FCS occurs on any wireless connection.
This should only be a concern if the value exceeds approximately 10% of the
bytes in value. This may be an indicator of signal/multi-path issues.
13. Can I block unwanted MAC addresses from the Ethernet interface?
It is possible to set an Access Control List to set all of your allowable MAC's on
the Ethernet (everything else on the Ethernet will be denied) by reading the
configuration from the unit with the WLAN Cable AP Configurator. Go to the
Setup tab -- General Setup -- Select the Mac Authentication Access control radio
button and click OK. Then select the Setup tab -- Advanced Authentication --
check the Access Control List and then click the Setup button. Add all your
allowable MAC's and select the Ethernet interface to apply the ACL.
