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 three ways to facilitate set-up and management.
Locally through the built-in 2.4 GHz wireless management network (B5/B5c and B11 Only)1.
Through the local Ethernet interface (LAN)2.
Remotely through the 5 GHz wireless link3.
Via 2.4 GHz Management Network
On any device with 2.4 GHz 802.11n capability, go to the wireless network listing and connect to the Local Network
Management wireless network (SSID): "mimosaMXXX". The default passphrase for the 2.4 GHz connection is
"mimosanetworks". Once connected, type 192.168.25.1 into your browser. Please note that both the Local Network
Management SSID and passphrase are configurable by the user, so their values could be different from the default
values.
Via Ethernet interface or in-band over the 5 GHz Wireless 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. This is
important to do in order to avoid IP address conflicts with other devices on the network. Current IP addresses of
different Mimosa devices on the network can be identified using terminal-based discovery. It is highly recommended
to change the default password to a unique and secured password.

Logging In
After connecting via one of the three access methods, the GUI will prompt you to log-in with a password. The
default password is "mimosa", and should be changed immediately after login to protect your network since it gives
the user read / write priveleges. The password can be changed within the Preferences > General > Set Password
panel of the GUI.

User Interface Overview
When you first log in, you’ll notice that there is a title bar with the device name shown in the top-right corner, a
navigation pane on the left, and a large content pane on the right. The default page shown in the content pane is
the Dashboard, which shows a summary of overall performance at a glance, and highlights both radio and link
parameters that affect link health.
On the left navigation pane, there are four prominent sections: Overview, Wireless, Preferences, and Diagnostics.
Each of these sections contains one or more links to pages containing task-related data, controls, and tools used to
administer the radio…and you can return the Dashboard at any time by clicking on the Dashboard link in the
Overview section.
The pin in the top corner of the left navigation pane allows you to "pin" open the navigation menu for easier access.

The Dashboard
The Dashboard contains several panels used to group related items. The status panel at the top of the page shows
the link SSID, the link status, GPS signal quality*, Link Uptime since association, and Link Availability since the last
reboot. Two of the values on this panel contain an information icon that shows more information when you click or
hover over it with your mouse cursor. On other panels, detailed help text can be found by clicking on the
information icon in the upper right hand corner.

Reading the Signal Meter
Connected Link
Received signal strength is shown in large text in the center of the control, and as a green indicator in the top dial.
The blue shaded bar and text immediately below the dial represent target signal strength based on distance and
other information exchanged between radios. The objective is to align the green indicator with the blue bar as a
guideline during antenna aiming.
The resulting half-duplex PHY rates shown at the bottom of the Signal Meter control are correlated with the MCS,
and represent raw data across the link without protocol overhead. The Max Throughput values include TDMA
window size and MAC layer efficiency.
The following settings and values that affect link health are listed for reference:
B5/B5c
Channel 1 Center Frequency: True center of the first frequency range (no offset).
Channel 2 Center Frequency: True center of the second frequency range (no offset).
Channel Width: Number of channels used (1 or 2), and the width of each channel (20, 40 or 80 MHz).
Tx Power: Total transmit power level (dBm).
Link Length: Distance between local and remote radios (when connected).
B5-Lite
Center Frequency: True center of the frequency range (no offset).

Channel Width: Number of channels used (1 or 2), and the width of each channel (20, 40 or 80 MHz).
Tx Power: Total transmit power level (dBm).
Link Length: Distance between local and remote radios (when connected).
Click the Spectrum Analyzer button to access the Spectrum Analyzer, which can also be found on the Channel &
Power page. This will not disturb the link.
When a link is not associated, the signal strength and PHY rates are replaced by an indicator of "Disconnected".
Once associated, click the Aiming Mode button on the Dashboard to open a new window that refreshes once per

Reading the Performance Charts
IP Throughput and Packet Error Rate (PER) are charted over 60 seconds in 5-second intervals. The newest data
shows up on the right and scrolls to the left over time. You can toggle between the charts by clicking on the
navigation circles at the bottom of the panel. If enabled, click on the cloud icon to view historical data within the
Manage application.
The IP Throughput graph plots three lines representing transmit, receive, and aggregate (summed) throughputs at
the datagram (or packet) layer excluding any protocol or encapsulation overhead. The results here may differ from
those measured using speed test tools, due to protocol overhead and encapsulation. Note that internal Bandwidth
test results are excluded.
The Packet Error Rate (PER) is the number of packets with errors divided by the total number of packets sent within
a 5-second period. Ideally, this value should be below 2%, while higher values indicate the presence of interference.
Tx PER is an indication that the local radio did not receive an ACK from the remote radio, so is forced to retransmit
the same information again. Rx PER is a value sent from the remote radio to the local radio in management frames.

Reading MIMO Status Tables
The MIMO Status panel contains two tables: Chains and Streams. Chains represent the physical medium (RF Tx/Rx
values), while Streams represent data. Chains and Streams are not necessarily correlated one to one because the
Rate Adaptation algorithm may periodically increase or decrease the number of data streams sent over the physical
medium when reacting to interference.
The Chains table describes each chain's power, noise, SNR, frequency and polarization.
The Streams table describes each stream's MCS index, PHY rates and Rx Error Vector Magnitude (EVM).
Each table can be selected by clicking on the navigation circles at the bottom of the panel.
Chains
The Chains table contains 6 values: Tx Power, Rx Power, Rx Noise, SNR, Center Frequency and Polarization. Each
channel is assigned two chains (horizontal and vertical). If two channels are selected, Channel 1 uses Chains 1 & 2,
while Channel 2 uses Chains 3 & 4.
Tx Power is the amount of power applied to each of the MIMO chains.
Tx Power can be shared evenly (preferred), or unevenly (if necessary), between channels. The Tx power
Tx Power can be shared evenly (preferred), or unevenly (if necessary), between channels. The Tx power
per channel is divided evenly per chain. Example: 4 dBm Tx power on Channel 1 results in 1 dBm each on

Chains 1 & 2.
Chains 1 & 2.
Rx Power is the incoming signal level from the remote radio. Larger values are better (e.g. -50 dBm is better than -
60 dBm).
Rx Noise is a combination of the thermal noise floor plus interference detected by the local radio. Smaller values are

Mimosa Networks Help Site Dashboard
Copyright © 2015 Mimosa Page 16
better (e.g. -90 dBm is better than -80 dBm). Noise sources can be either in close proximity to the local radio, or
they can be remote transmitters pointed back at the local radio.
The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is the difference between the Rx Power and Rx Noise, and is a measure of how well
the local receiver can detect signals from the remote transmitter and clearly discern them from noise. Higher
values are better (e.g. 30 dB is better than 10 dB).
If two channels are selected, you may observe that SNR is much lower on one channel than the other. This could be
because the Tx Power is set lower on the remote transmitter, or because of higher interference levels on the
channel. To resolve this, increase Tx Power or change the channel that has lower SNR.
Chains 1 & 3 have horizontal polarization, and Chains 2 & 4 have vertical polarization. Chains with the same
polarization are combined internal to the radio before exiting to the antenna connectors.
Streams
The Streams table contains the Tx MCS index, Tx PHY rate, Rx MCS index, Rx PHY rate, and the Rx EVM for each
stream.
The Tx MCS is an indicator of how well the remote radio can receive data from the local transmitter. The Rx MCS
indicates how well the local radio is receiving data from the remote transmitter.

The Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) indicates the difference between the actual and expected amplitude and phase of
an incoming signal. Smaller values are better (e.g. -30 dB is better than -10 dB).
Rate Adaptation dynamically adjusts both the MCS and the number of streams depending on RF conditions. Poor RF

Single channel mode usually uses 2 streams, but may drop to one stream if RF conditions are poor. Dual channel
mode uses up to 4 streams. You may also see the number of streams change periodically because of tests that
Rate Adaptation performs to optimize performance. This is expected and normal.

Reading the Spectrum Analyzer
The Spectrum Analyzer actively scans the 5 GHz band in the background to report on interference sources that may
impact link performance. Click the Local, Remote, or Combined buttons to each radio's spectrum individually or
simultaneously. Click on the half circle icon in the upper right to toggle the graph's background color between black
and white. Note that the remote side data may be as much as 5 minutes behind the local radio.
Channels in use have higher Power Spectral Density (PSD) on the vertical axis, and are shaded in different colors to
represent how often the signals are likely to be on the same frequency at the same amplitude.
The legend to the right of the graph explains the color code for the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF). The
color red suggests the highest probability (1 = 100%), while purple represents the lowest probability (0 = 0%).
Cross hairs appear on the graph beneath the mouse pointer along with an information box containing the frequency
(channel), PSD, and CDF values.
There are three types of markings, or bars, immediately beneath the graph’s horizontal axis that indicate frequency
ranges that are restricted, manually excluded, or in active use by this link. Note that traffic from the Active Channel
is excluded from the display so that noise can be detected.

Managing Channel & Power Settings
The Chanel and Power Settings panel allows for either automatic or manual changes to frequency, channel width,
and power for either one or two channels.
B5/B5c
Auto Everything - Automatically configure channel, channel width and power to optimize performance based on
spectrum data.
Channel Width (MHz) - In Manual Mode, choose the number of link channels (single or dual) and the
channel width for each (Example: 2x80 MHz represents two channels with 80 MHz each, totaling 160 MHz).
Single channel options ending in "FD" allow for different transmit and receive frequencies on Channel 1 & 2,
respectively.
Maximum Channel Width (MHz) - Select the maximum channel width Auto Everything is allowed to use. The
decision for single or dual channel modes will be made automatically. For example, selecting 40 MHz as the
maximum channel width may result in 1x40 or 2x20 mode. Smaller channel widths may also be selected based
on RF conditions. Auto Everything is designed to maintain the highest link bandwidth while maintaining link
stability.
Center Frequency (1 & 2) - In Off (Manual) mode, select the center frequency of the channel used on the link. In
all modes, the center frequency represents the absolute center of the selected channel width without any
offset, and the center can be moved in 5 MHz increments. If Auto Everything is set to On, the Channel(s) will be
automatically set, and not editable.
Tx Power (1 & 2) - Set the desired transmit power level. The allowed options are determined by a combination
of country and chosen frequency. If Channel Width is set to 1xN MHz, Channel 2 will not be used. If Auto
Everything is set to On, Tx Power will be automatically set, and not editable. In "FD" mode, Power 1 and Power 2
represent transmit power on the local and remote sides, respectively.

Wireless Mode - Choose whether the device will act as an Access Point or a Station.
Gender - Traffic Split - The radio can be configured to allocate bandwidth symmetrically (50/50) or biased
towards downstream (75/25) in environments where traffic direction is expected to be heavier in one direction
than the other. With an asymmetrical split, the local radio is represented first in the slash notation,
(local/remote). For example, in the (75/25) split, the local radio gets 75, while the remote radio gets 25. If
"Auto" is selected the radio will automatically determine, based upon traffic flow, which ratio will be used. The
radio will continue to evaluate the flow and adjust accordingly.
TDMA Window - Determines the length of the transmit time slot in milliseconds.
Note: To enable spectrum reuse, both Gender-Traffic Split and TDMA Window must each be set to the same value for all collocated
radios. Further, "Auto" must not be selected as the TDMA Window when radios are collocated.

Enabling System Log Notifications
Enable Syslog service on the local device to send traps to a remote Syslog server.
Syslog Remote Log - Enable or disable Syslog service on the local device.
Transport Server - Choose the desired protocol for the Syslog connection. Note that most devices send UDP
messages by default. UDP is an unreliable transmission protocol, thus messages may get lost. Choose TCP for
higher reliability if any message loss is unacceptable.
Remote Log IP Address - List the IP Address of the remote Syslog server to which Notifications will be sent.
Remote Log Port - List the Port on the remote Syslog server to which Notifications will be sent.

Performing a Firmware Update
The Firmware Update panel displays the current firmware version and date, and allows the user to upload a new
firmware image. The latest firmware image may be downloaded from help.mimosa.co. Alternately, firmware can be
pushed to the device automatically through the Manage application at manage.mimosa.co.
Installed Version - The currently installed firmware version.
Build Date - The date that the installed firmware was created.
Image File - Update to the latest firmware. Click the Choose File button to select a file for upload the file.

When performing a Firmware upgrade, it is advisable to reboot and then upgrade the remote side of the
link before the local side. If there is a problem during the upgrade you will still have access to one of the
link before the local side. If there is a problem during the upgrade you will still have access to one of the
radios within the link and can manage the link details.
radios within the link and can manage the link details.
The firmware update process occurs in four phases:
Upload - Selecting a firmware image and uploading to the radio1.
Verification - Ensuring that the firmware image is complete and without errors2.
Upgrade - Writing the new firmware image to flash memory3.
Reboot - Restarting with the new firmware image (~90 seconds)4.
Once the remote radio enters the Upgrade phase, it is generally safe to begin the Upload phase to the local radio.
Alternately, the Mimosa Manage application offers a parallel upgrade feature which sends the firmware image to
both radios, and once both radios receive and verify the image, they upgrade at the same time and reboot in an
order that you specify.

Diagnostic Tests
Three types of tests are available within the Diagnostics section: Ping, Bandwidth and Traceroute.
Ping Test
A low level ICMP test which indicates whether the target host is reachable from the local device.
Destination Host - The destination IP Address of the device to ping.
Packet Count - The number of packets to transmit during a ping.
Packet Size - The size of each packet to transmit during a ping.
Run Test - Click on the Run Test button to ping the destination IP address. Results are shown in the
corresponding table.
Bandwidth Test
A manual test to assess maximum throughput when minimal or no traffic is present. This test sends 1500-byte
packets using a proprietary UDP-like protocol. Results are shown in corresponding graph on this page. Note that
bandwidth test data is excluded from the Dashboard Performance graph. This is because the test is conducted by
transmitting packets at a low layer between the two radios. Navigating away from this page will stop the test. The
bandwidth test is only available when the devices are associated.
Test Duration - The length of the bandwidth test in seconds.
Test - Select one of the following options to assess the maximum throughput:
Local to Remote - Unidirectional test from the local device to the remote device
Remote to Local - Unidirectional test from the remote device to the local device
Transmit then Receive - Bidirectional tests conducted in series
Simultaneous - Bidirectional test conducted in parallel
Traceroute Test
A network utility used to display the path and transit delay between the local device and a given destination across
an IP network.
Destination Host - The destination IP address for traceroute to send packets.
Resolve IP Address - Indicate whether the system should resolve and print the host name of the destination.
Max Number of Hops - Choose the maximum number of intermediate devices (e.g. routers) through which
packets must pass between source and destination.
Run Test - Click on the Run Test button to begin the traceroute test. Results are shown in the corresponding
table.
