Any such modifications couldvoid the user’s authority to operate the equipment and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.U.S. Federal Communication Commision (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC)NotificationThis device complies with part 15 of the U. S. FCC Rules and Regulations and with RSS-210 ofIndustry Canada.  Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may notcause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, includinginterference that may cause undesired operation. In Canada, users should be cautioned to takenote that high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) of 5250 –5350 MHz and 5650 – 5850 MHz and these radars could cause interference and/or damage tolicense-exempt local area networks (LELAN).This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,pursuant to Part 15 of the U.S. FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.  These limits aredesigned to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed andused in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to radiocommunications.    If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or televisionreception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is encouraged tocorrect the interference by one or more of the following measures: Increase the separation between the affected equipment and the unit; Connect the affected equipment to a power outlet on a different circuit from that which thereceiver is connected to; Consult the dealer and/or experienced radio/TV technician for help.FCC ID: ABZ89FC3789 IC: 109W-5200FCC ID: ABZ89FC4816 IC: 109W-5700FCC ID: ABZ89FC5804The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada technicalspecifications were met.European Community NotificationNotification of Intended Purpose of Product UsesThis product is a two-way radio transceiver suitable for use in Broadband RLAN systems.

The corresponding compliancedistances referenced above have been determined by assuming worst-case scenarios. The peakpower density (S) in the far-field of a radio-frequency source with rms transmit power P andantenna gain G at a distance d is24dGPSπ⋅=In the case of the Canopy SM without reflector, the gain is 8 dBi (a factor of 6.3), so the peakpower density equals the exposure limit at a distance of 10 cm. A four-fold additional compliancemargin is artificially introduced by doubling the distance to 20 cm.In the case of the Canopy SM with reflector, the gain is 26 dBi (a factor of 400), so the peak powerdensity equals the exposure limit at a distance of about 80 cm. An almost four-fold additionalcompliance margin is artificially introduced by defining the compliance distance of 1.5 m. Thecompliance distance is greatly overestimated in this case because the far-field equation neglectsthe physical dimension of the antenna, which is modeled as a point-source.Software License Terms and ConditionsONLY OPEN THE PACKAGE, OR USE THE SOFTWARE AND RELATED PRODUCT IF YOUACCEPT THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE.

AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 14 of 49BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON NETWORKINGComputers are assigned IP addresses by network operators, which have two methods available,static or dynamic IP addressing.   The user of this document will need to understand how IPaddressing is done at their particular location.All Canopy radio products (Subscriber Modules, Access Point Modules, and Backhaul Modules)have the default IP address of 169.254.1.1.  For a computer to talk to Canopy, as it comes from thefactory, either of the following conditions must be met:• If the computer is not configured for DHCP, then it has to have a static IP address onthe 169.254 network (i.e. 169.254.1.5)• If the computer is configured for DHCP, then it will automatically obtain an IP addresson the 169.254 network after minute or two as long as it is not connected to thenetwork.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 15 of 49SYSTEM OVERVIEW AND SITE PLANNINGDefinitions:Access Point Module – one (1) module that is used to distribute Internet services in a 60-degreesector of up to 200 subscribers.Access Point Cluster – two (2) to six (6) Access Point modules used to distribute Internet service toa community of up to 1200 subscribers.  Each Access Point module will cover a 60-degree sectorfor a total of up to 360 degrees.Cluster Management Module – a module that contains power, GPS timing, and networking for anAccess Point cluster.   Canopy Backhaul Modules can also be connected to the ClusterManagement Module making it the central connectivity point for an entire site.Overview:In the Canopy System, each subscriber module communicates with an Access Point module in anassign time slot that is controlled by the Access Point.  The Access Point module coordinates thedata needs of the subscriber in both the downlink and the uplink to allow for seamlesscommunication throughout the entire network.Access Point modules use a multipoint protocol to communication with each of the subscribermodules registered in the system.  Access Point modules can be deployed in either the 5.2 GHzband or the 5.7 GHz band allowing for a very versatile system architecture to reach out through thelast-mile to all potential customers.In the 5.2 GHz band, subscriber module may be as far as 2 miles away from the Access Pointmodule.  In the 5.7 GHz band, subscriber module may be as far as 10 miles away from the AccessPoint module when utilizing a Canopy passive reflector kit on the subscriber.  Note: Distances mayvary based on terrain and other line of sight issues.To bring a network feed out to a remotely located Access Point cluster the Canopy BackhaulModule can be used to create a point-to-point link out to the location.   The Canopy BackhaulModule will interface with the Cluster Management Module to seamlessly integrate the entiresystem.  For more information on the Canopy Backhaul Module see its user manual.The Cluster Management Module is key to the operation of the Canopy System.  At one cluster siteor throughout the system the Cluster Management Module provides a GPS timing pulse to eachmodule so that their transmission cycles are synchronized.  If one Access Point module were to notbe synchronized then it may be transmitting during a receive cycle of the other modules and causethe receiver to be desensitized. This is also true of the Canopy Backhaul timing master Modules.

There are 2 cables,Ethernet and GPS sync, that would connect each sector unit to the APInstallation kit.AC or DCpower inNetwork Connectioningroundingsystem300SSoptionalbackhaul moduleFigure 4: System Wiring DiagramSITE SELECTION CRITERIAThere are various issues that need to be taken into consideration when choosing a location forthe network infrastructure.  The following is a list of those considerations.  There may be others,as each site is unique.• Height is essential when installing Canopy Access Points.  The Canopy Access Pointmodules must be mounted higher than other objects located immediately around themsuch as trees, buildings, and tower legs, but at least 2 feet (0.6 m) below the highestpoint on the tower or pole for lightning protection.• There should be no obstructions that will interfere with the unit’s internal antenna.  Thearea immediately in front of an Access Point module must be clear of all obstructions.• Will the installation area change in the future?  Will there be structures high enough tointerfere with the signal?  Will trees grow into the line-of-sight path?• When possible, avoid high RF energy sites (i.e. AM/FM stations, high poweredantennas, etc.)   Do not place Canopy equipment in the same plane as other RFequipment.• The means used by the installer to attach the Access Point cluster to the tower,rooftop, or pole should be rigid and should not move or flex due to wind or othervibrations.• Tower availability…will a tower have to be erected?ClusterManagementModule
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 17 of 49• There must be grounding systems available for protection of the Canopy equipment.• Lighting arrestors are required in installation area to transport lightning strikes awayfrom equipment.GENERAL CONSIDERATIONSFresnel Loss - The Fresnel Zone is a theoretical area around the line of sight of an antennatransmission that can affect the signal strength.   Objects that penetrate the Fresnel Zone cancause fading of the transmitted signal.  This fading is caused by the cancellation of the signal dueto out-of-phase reflections and absorption of the signal.  An unobstructed line of sight is important,but it is not the only determination of an adequate placement.  Even though the path has a clearline of sight, if obstructions (such as terrain, vegetation, metal roofs, cars, etc.) penetrate theFresnel zone, there may be signal loss.  The following illustrates a Fresnel zone.Fresnel ZoneTransmitter ReceiverD1 D2Figure 5: Fresnel ZoneFree Space Path Loss – As an RF signal travels through space, it is attenuated by the distancefrom the initial transmission point.  The farther away from the transmission point, the weaker the RFsignal.Foliage Loss – Tree and plant foliage will cause additional signal loss.  Seasonal density, moisturecontent of the foliage, and other factors such as wind may change the amount of loss.   Cautionshould be used when a link may transmit though this type of environment.Carrier to Interference – describes how much signal advantage must be engineered into the radiolink to tolerate an interfering transmission.How many Access Point clusters are being planned for deployment?  Each cluster will need touse a Cluster Management Module for seamless operation within the entire Canopy System.How many Access Point modules are being planned for each site in the deployment?  AccessPoint modules can be distributed; they do not necessarily have to be mounted immediately next toeach other for operation.   For example, if the site is a three-legged tower, two Access Pointmodules can be mounted to each of the tower legs.How will the subscriber modules be deployed relative to planned Access Point clusters?
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 18 of 49CHANNEL PLANSWhether using Hz or 5.7 GHz modules, frequencies should never be placed closer than20 MHz.   The Canopy modules allow the operator to chose frequencies every 5 MHz.This is so that in the event of co-location with other equipment the operator cancustomize the channel layout for interoperability.5.2 GHz Recommended FrequenciesThe following are the 3 non-overlapping channels that are recommended by the Canopy team foruse with an Access Point cluster:• 5.275 GHz• 5.300 GHz• 5.325 GHz5.7 GHz Recommended FrequenciesThe following are the 4 non-overlapping channels that are recommended by the Canopy team foruse with an Access Point cluster Note: only 3 channels are actually needed for the fully populatedcluster.  The four channels are also used for backhaul point-to-point links:• 5.745 GHz• 5.765 GHz• 5.785 GHz• 5.805 GHzSingle Access Point ModuleA single Access Point module can use any of the frequency channels that are available.Single Access Point ClusterUse the following table as a recommendation to assign frequency channels and sector IDs (seesection on Configuration interface screen for information on sector IDs).

AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 20 of 49NETWORKING INFORMATIONThe Canopy Access Point module will each use an IP address on the operator’s network.  It isrecommended that the Access Point modules never be placed directly onto the Internet.  IPaddresses may be assigned sequentially clockwise around an Access Point cluster for easiermanageability.  The operator will also need to identify the appropriate subnet mask and networkgateway each of the modules.From the factory, each Access Point module is assigned a unique MAC address and the followingdefault networking information:• IP address of 169.254.1.1• Subnet mask of 255.255.0.0• Network gateway of 169.254.0.0LIGHTNING PROTECTION• The Canopy Access Point module, Cluster Management Module, and GPS antenna mustbe mounted at least 2 feet below the highest point at the site for lightning strike mitigation.It is highly recommended that the site have a lightning protection system installed.• Ensure the location is properly grounded for lightning protection according to all applicablenational and local codes.• To protect operator equipment from surges on the Ethernet cable that is connected to theCanopy System, the Canopy surge suppressor must be used.ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS• Specifications for the voltages and distance can be found in the Specification section ofthis manual.• There is a fuse in the CMM for short-circuit protection. In addition, good electrical practicerequires a circuit breaker in the electrical circuit supplying the CMM, or other means toprovide a disconnect device and back-up short-circuit protection.• Make certain the installation conforms to applicable country and local codes, such as the .National Electrical Code (NEC) in the US. If uncertain of code requirements, obtain theservices of a licensed electrician.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 21 of 49ADVANCED FEATURESThese features may be used in the Canopy System but are not required for basic operation.SECURITY - DES ENCRYPTIONDES (Data Encryption Standard) is a secret key encryption scheme.  DES performs a series of bitpermutations, substitutions, and recombination operations on blocks of data using a secret key.On the base Canopy system, DES encryption of the over the air link is turned on per Access Pointmodule or Backhaul timing master module. DES encryption does not affect the performance orthroughput of the system.  Each Canopy module contains a unique factory programmed secret keyused in DES encryption.For additional security, Canopy offers the  Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM). With theBAM the user can specify their own DES keys, as well as turn on SM authentication and set per-SM bandwidth management. The BAM is a Canopy software product running on a networked LinuxPC.BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENTSubscriber Module bandwidth management is set per Access Point.  All Subscriber Modules whichregister to an Access Point module will receive and use the same bandwidth managementinformation.The software uses   “token buckets” to manage each subscriber’s bandwidth.  Each subscriber’sbucket (actually two buckets, one for uplink and one for downlink) is constantly being filled withtokens at the Sustained rate, up to the Burst size (the size of their bucket). When they use theinternet, they have full bandwidth until they “drain” their bucket, then they only have the Sustainedrate, until they quit draining their bucket, and let it refill a bit.After a burst is fully or partially used, it then “recharges” at the Sustained rate. Short burstsrecharge quickly, often before the next burst. Large bursts take longer to recharge.The way bandwidth management appears to the subscriber is that as long as they are doingnormal web browsing and e-mail handling, small file transfers, and short streaming video, they willrarely be speed limited, depending on what the bandwidth management is set to. If they do largedownloads (software upgrades, streaming video, and so on), or a series of medium-sizedownloads, they will have high bandwidth until they hit the burst limit, then drop down in speed tothe sustained setting. When they are idle, the burst limit will then “recharge” at the sustained rate.To manage bandwidth separately for each SM, Canopy offers the Bandwidth and AuthenticationManager (BAM). The BAM supports per-SM setting of Sustained Uplink, Sustained Downlink,Uplink Burst, and Downlink Burst, as well as SM authentication and user-specification of DES keys.The BAM is a Canopy software product running on a networked Linux PC.HIGH PRIORITY BANDWITHTo support traffic with a low latency requirement such as VoIP (voice over IP), the Canopy Systemimplements a high priority data pipe.  This implementation does not affect the inherent latencies inthe Canopy System but allows high priority traffic to be serviced immediately.  The high priority pipeseparates low latency trafiic from traffic that is latency tolerant such as standard web surfing andfile downloads.  This traffics is separated by the Canopy System via the IPv4 TOS (type of service)
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 22 of 49Low Latency bit.   If this bit is set, the packet will be sent on the high priority pipe.  This pipe isserviced before any normal priority traffic.The high priority system is enabled via four fields found in the Configuration web page.  The fieldsare:• High Priority Uplink Percentage• Uacks Reserved High• Dacks Reserved High• NumCtrlSlots Reserved HighThe High Priority Uplink Percentage parameter describes the percentage of the uplink bandwidththat will be dedicated to low latency traffic.  When set, this percentage of RF link bandwidth will bepermanently allocated to low latency traffic regardless of the amount of this kind of traffic present.There is no corresponding downlink parameter as this bandwidth is allocated on as-needed basisby the scheduling algorithms.The UAcks (Uplink ACK) Reserved High parameter describes the number of slots used toacknowledge high priority data that is received by a subscriber module.   The Canopy teamrecommends that this parameter be set to 3 and then the TotalNumUAcksSlots parameter shouldbe set to 6.The DAcks (Downlink ACK) Reserved High parameter describes the number of slots used toacknowledge high priority data that is received by an Access Point module.   The Canopy teamrecommends that this parameter be set to 3 and NumDAckSlots parameter should be set to 6.The NumCtrlSlots Reserved High parameter describes the number of slots used to send controlmessages to an Access Point module.  The Canopy team recommends that this parameter be setto 3 and the NumCtlSlots parameter should be set to 6.When all these parameters are configured, all high priority traffic in the uplink direction will beserviced via this pipe at the percentage configured.  This is true even if the high priority trafficvolume exceeds the configured capacity and there is no non-high priority traffic.BRANDINGOn each Canopy module, the web-based interface screens have a Canopy logo that can bereplaced with an operator’s company logo.   The Canopy logo file is called canopy.jpg and thereplacement file must also be called canopy.jpg.  The new file is transferred via FTP to the moduleand then added to a special filesystem through a telnet session.  The following command can beused during a telnet session:• addwebfile – add a custom logo file to the filesystem• clearwebfile – clear the customer logo file from the filesystem• lsweb – list the custom logo file and display the storage space available on the filesystemThe following is a sample FTP session:> ftp 169.254.1.1Connected to 169.254.1.1220 FTP server readyName (169.254.1.1:none): root331 Guest login okPassword: <password-if-configured>230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.ftp> binary200 Type set to I

Consult the Release 3.2 Software Release Notes for additional information.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 24 of 49INSTALLATIONThe following steps are required to install the Canopy Access Point module(s), the ClusterManagement Module, and the GPS antenna:• Unpack the Canopy products• Configuration of the Access Point modules• Configuration of the Cluster Management Module• Installation of the Access Point modules, Cluster Management Module, and GPS antenna• VerificationUNPACK THE CANOPY PRODUCTSUpon receipt, carefully inspect all shipping boxes for signs of damage.  If there is damage,immediately notify the transporatation company.Unpack equipment, making sure that all ordered components have arrived.  It is recommended thatyou save all the packing materials.  They can be used for transportation of the equipment to andfrom installation sites.CONFIGURATION OF THE ACCESS POINT MODULESIn all cases, for configuration changes to take effect, the operator must1. Make the configuration change or changes on a module’s web page.2. Save the configuration change or changes, using the Save button.a. Make and Save additional configuration changes if desired.3. Reboot the module, using the Reboot button.The configuration changes don’t take effect until the module is rebooted.The are two methods that can be used to configure each of the Access Point modules.  The firstmethod is to use the Quick Start feature of the product.  For more information on Quick Start seeThe Interface Screens.  The second is to manually set each of the parameters.The Access Point module, from the factory, is configured to not transmit on any frequency.  This isdone so that an operator does not accidentally turn on an unsynchronized Access Point module.An operator will need to verify the following information:• Will the Access Point module need to generate its own sync pulse or will it receive itfrom the Cluster Management Module?• The operator will assign a RF frequency for the module to transmit.• The operator may assign value for uplink and downlink bandwidth capping.  If theAccess Point module is in a cluster with other modules then this parameters on allunits must be set exactly the same.• The operator will assign an IP address to the module for the network it will be installedon and assign an appropriate subnet mask and network gateway.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 25 of 49• The operator must configure the appropriate color code on the Access Point module sothat subscriber modules can register with it.  The color codes must match forregistration.• The operator must configure the maximum range that the Access Point module willregister a subscriber module.  If the Access Point module is in a cluster with othermodules then this parameter on all units must be set exactly the same.• The operator can prevent unauthorized users from connectig to the Access Pointmodule’s web based interface by assigning a password.  There is no default passwordand password protection is turn off is turn off from the factory.- Passwords can be from 1 to 16 characters.  Any combination of charactersis allowed, except for these special characters: “ , . ‘ { } / \ ; : [ ] ( ) ` ~- NOTE:  If the operator forgets either the password or the IP address forthe module, a Canopy default plug can be used to regain access.  Fordetails, see the section on the default plug under Interface Screens.- There are two types of passwords that can be configured: display-only orfull-access.  The display-only password allows the operator to view themodule’s current status.  The full-access password allows the operator toview the module’s current status and change its configuration.  By viewingthe red lettering to the right of the entry fields, the operator can tell that apassword is set, but can’t see the password.• The operator can enter information about the Site Name, Location, and Contact.  Thisis optional.CONFIGURATION OF THE CLUSTER MANAGEMENT MODULEThe operator will need to verify the following when configuring a Cluster Management Module:• What type of power will the module use, AC or DC?• If using AC power, there is a switch to choose 115V or 230V on thepower transformer. This switch must be set correctly before power isapplied, or the unit may be damaged. See the schematic inside theCluster Management Module for further information.

AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 32 of 49THE INTERFACE SCREENSThe Canopy Access Point module contains a series of web pages that are used to interface to theunit.   The following is a quick reference to interface screens.   Note:  These screens are subject tochange by subsequent software versions.  To access the web based interface you first must be ona computer that is in some way connected to the Access Point module.  This can be done eitherdirectly or through a network.   Enter the IP address of the Access Point module (default is169.254.1.1) into the address bar of your browser and hit enter on your keyboard.  The followingweb based interface pages are accessible:• Quick Start• Status• Configuration• Event Log• LUID Select• Link Test• Time & Date• Sessions• GPS Status• Ethernet Stats• ExtendedStatsQUICK STARTFigure 11: Quick Start web pageThe Canopy System consists of a family of highly flexible, fixed wireless access devices that canbe put into service quickly and with a minimal configuration. The Quick Start is a wizard that walksthe operator through that configuration. To place an Access Point module into operation, only threeparameters need to be configured:• RF Carrier Frequency
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 33 of 49• Synchronization• Network IP AddressEach of the pages in the Quick Start will explain a little about Canopy and ask the operator for achoice that best addresses the network requirements. At the end, the operator will be given theopportunity to review the configuration selected and save it to non-volatile memory. None of thechanges made prior to saving the configuration will affect the system so experimentation with theinterface is encouraged.STATUS PAGEFigure 12: Status web pageThe Status page contains information on the operation of the product.  It is the default web page.The following parameters are displayed:Device Type:  displays the type of Canopy module that is currently being viewed.  This field will letthe operator know the frequency band of the module, the protocol that it is utilizing, and the MACaddress of the module.  The frequency band can either be in the 5.2 GHz or 5.7 GHz band.Software Version:  displays the version of the software that is currently loaded into the module.Please make note of this information when obtaining technical support.FPGA Version:  displays the version of the FPGA (field programmable gate array) that is currentlyloaded into the module.  Please make not of this information when obtaining technical support.Uptime:  displays the length of time the module has been operating since power was applied.System Time:   displays the  current time.   If  the  Access Point module is connected to  a  ClusterManagement Module (CMM) then the time will be Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).  Any subscribermodule that registers to the Access Point module will inherit the system time.Ethernet Interface:  displays the configuration of the Ethernet interface on the module.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 34 of 49Registered SM Count: displays the number of subscriber modules currently registered to theAccess Point module.GPS Sync Pulse Status:   displays the current status of the type of synchronization the AccessPoint module is receiving.  There are 3 values that could be displayed:• Generating sync:  If the module is set to generate its own sync pulse then this message willbe displayed.• Receiving Sync:  If the module is set to receive a sync pulse from an outside source (notitself) and is actually receiving the pulse then this message will be displayed.• ERROR: No Sync Pulse:   If the module is set to receive a sync pulse from an outsidesource (not itself) and it is currently not receiving the pulse this message will be displayed.When this message is displayed the Access Point module will turn its transmitter off so asto not create any self-interference within the Canopy System.Radio Slicing Value:  displays information to be used be Canopy technical support.Radio Transmit Gain Setting:  displays information to be used by Canopy technical support.Site Name:  displays information relating to the name of the physical module.  This parameter canbe set by the operator on the Configuration web page. This information is set into the sysNameSNMP MIB-II object and can be polled via a SNMP management server.Site Contact:  displays contact information for the physical module.  This parameter can be set bythe operator on the Configuration web page. This information is set into the sysContact SNMP MIB-II object and can be polled via a SNMP management server.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 35 of 49CONFIGURATIONFigure 13: Configuration web pageThe Configuration web page contains information and configurable parameters pertaining to theoperation of the product.  The first line of information on the Configuration screen is a repeat of theDevice Type from the Status web page.  The following are the parameters and their descriptions.Sync Input:  choose the type of synchronization that this Access Point module will use.If “Sync to Received Signal” is chosen, then it is assumed that:• this Access Point module it connected to a Cluster Management Module and will bereceiving a sync pulse via GPS• this Access Point module is connected to another Access Point module that is generatingits own sync pulse. If “Generate Sync Signal” is chosen then it is assumed that:• this Access Point module is a stand-alone module with no other Access Point moduleswithin a 5 mile radius.• this Access Point module is generating the sync pulse for a cluster of Access Pointmodules and there are no other Access Point modules within a 5-mile radius.Link Negotiation Speeds:  choose the type of link speed desired for the Ethernet connection.  Thedefault for this parameter is for all the choices to be checked.RF Frequency Carrier:   choose the frequency that the module will transmit on.   The default fromthe factory is to have this parameter set to none.Downlink Data:   choose the percentage of the aggregate throughput that is needed for thedownlink (i.e going from the Access Point module to the subscriber).  For example, if the aggregatethroughput on the Access Point module is 6 Mbits, then configuring this parameter for 75% willallocate 4.5 Mbits for the downlink and 1.5 Mbits for the uplink.  If the Access Point module is in a
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 36 of 49cluster with other modules then this parameter on all units must be set exactly the same.  Thedefault for this parameter is 75%.High Priority Uplink Percentage:  describes the percentage of the uplink bandwidth that will bededicated to low latency traffic.   When set, this percentage of RF link bandwidth will bepermanently allocated to low latency traffic regardless of the amount of this kind of traffic present.There is no corresponding downlink parameter as this bandwidth is allocated on as-needed basisby the scheduling algorithms.Total NumUAckSlots:   describes the total number of slots used to acknowledge data that isreceived by a subscriber module.   If the Access Point module is in a cluster with other modulesthen this parameter on all units must be set exactly the same.  The default should be set to 3.Uacks Reserved High:  describes the number of slots used to acknowledge high priority data thatis received by a subscriber module.  The Canopy team recommends that this parameter be set to 3and then the Total NumUAcksSlots parameter should be set to 6.NumDAckSlots:  describes the total number of slots used to acknowledge data that is received byan Access Point module.  If the Access Point module is in a cluster with other modules then thisparameter on all units must be set exactly the same.  The default should be set to 3.Dacks Reserved High:  describes the number of slots used to acknowledge high priority data thatis received by an Access Point module.  The Canopy team recommends that this parameter be setto 3 and NumDAckSlots parameter should be set to 6.NumCtlSlots:   describes the total number of slots used to send control messages to an AccessPoint module.  If the Access Point module is in a cluster with other modules then this parameter onall units must be set exactly the same.  The default should be set to 3.NumCtlSlots Reserved High:  describes the number of slots used to send control messages to anAccess Point module.   The Canopy team recommends that this parameter be set to 3 and theNumCtlSlots parameter should be set to 6.Sustained Uplink Data Rate:  choose the rate at which each Subscriber Module registered to thisAP will be capped in the uplink direction.  The default is 10,000 kbps, which means that there is norestriction on the uplink.Uplink Burst Allocation:  choose the maximum value that each individual subscriber module willhave for burst traffic in the uplink direction.  The default is 10,000 kb.Sustained Downlink Data Rates:  choose the rate at which each Subscriber Module registered tothis AP will be capped in the downlink direction.   The default is 10,000 kbps, which means thatthere is no restriction on the downlink.Downlink Burst Allocation:  choose the maximum value that each individual subscriber modulewill have for burst traffic in the downlink direction.  The default is 10,000 kb.LAN IP:   enter in the IP address that will be associated with the Ethernet connection on thismodule.  The default address is 169.254.1.1. If the IP address is forgotten, the operator will needphysical access to the module and will need to create a Canopy “default plug”.  See steps at theend of this section for use of a default plug.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 37 of 49LAN Subnet Mask:  enter in an appropriate subnet mask for the module to “talk” on the network.The default value for this parameter is 255.255.255.0.Default Gateway:  enter in the appropriate gateway for the module to “talk” on the network.  Thedefault for this parameter is 169.254.0.0.Private IP:  the default for this parameter is 192.168.101.1.  It is recommended that the operatornot change this parameter. A flat, class C subnet is used to communicate with each of thesubscriber modules that have registered.  The Access Point uses a combination of the private IPand the logical unit ID (LUID) of the subscriber module.For example, if there are two subscriber modules (LUID 2 and LUID 3) registered to an AccessPoint module, then the Access Point uses the following to communicate to each:Unit LUID Private IPAccess Point module 1 192.168.101.1subscriber module 1 2 192.168.101.2subscriber module 2 3 192.168.101.3If the private IP address is changed then it must designate a Class C subnet that is not used foranything else and the address must be in the form of xxx.xxx.xxx.1, where 1 is the last octet of theaddress.Color Code:   enter in a value (0-254).   The color code on the subscriber module and the AccessPoint module must match in order for registration to occur.  Color code is not a security feature.  Itis a means for the Canopy System operator to segregate an individual network or neighbor Canopynetworks.  Also, color code can be used to force a subscriber module to only register to a specificAccess Point module even though the subscriber module may be able to see multiple Access Pointmodules.  The default value for this parameter is 0 on all Canopy modules.Sector ID:  choose an ID number to give to this Access Point module.  This parameter does notaffect the operation of the module in any way.   Its purpose is just another means to identify theAccess Point module.  When observing a subscriber module’s AP Eval Data web page, the sectorID is one of the distinguishing fields present to help the operator understand what Access Pointmodule is seen.  It is recommended that when constructing an Access Point cluster (2-6 modules)that each sector be given a different ID and that the pattern be repeated throughout the entireCanopy System for manageability.Max Range:  enter in a distance (in miles).  This parameter controls the maximum distance that asubscriber module will be allowed to register.   The subscriber module must still meet minimumrequirements for an acceptable link in order to register.  If the Access Point module is in a clusterwith other modules then this parameter on all units must be set exactly the same.  The default forthis parameter is 2 miles.Display-Only Access:  enter the same password in both fields for verification.  The display-onlypassword, when used, will allow only view activities to the module.   When the display-onlypassword is set and not the full-access password, the display-only password will be tied to telnetand FTP sessions to the module.  If the full-access password is also set then it has precedence onthe telnet and FTP sessions.  If the password is forgotten, the operator will need physical access tothe module and will need to create a Canopy “default plug” to override the unit.  See steps at end ofsection for use and creation of a default plug.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 38 of 49Full Access:  enter the same password in both fields for verification.  The full-access password,when used, will allow view and change activities to the module.  When the full-access password isset, the password will also be tied to telnet and FTP sessions to the module.  When prompted forthe password via the web-based interface, there is no username required; however when promptedfor the password via a telnet or FTP session, the user that MUST be used is “root”.  If the passwordis forgotten, the operator will need physical access to the module and will need to create a Canopy“default plug” to override the unit.  See steps at end of this section for use of a default plug.Webpage Auto Update:  enter time period (in seconds) desired to have the web browser refreshthe web-based interface.   The default setting is 0, which will cause the web-based interface tonever refresh.Airlink Security:   choose the type of air link security that is to be used on this Access Pointmodule.  There are two choices:• Normal:  With this mode there is no encryption on the air link.  This is the default operation.• DES:   With this mode the air link is encrypted using single DES, using a factoryprogrammed secret key that is unique for each module.Bridge Entry Timeout:   choose the appropriate bridge timeout for correct network operation withexisting network infrastructure.  It is important that this parameter be set for a longer time periodthan the ARP (address resolution protocol) cache timeout of the router being used to feed thenetwork.  Note: Failure to properly configure this may lead to temporary loss ofcommunication to specific end users.AP Background BER Mode:  choose to have this feature turned on or off.  Bit Error Rate (BER)mode will allow an operator another means to verify the functionality of a link.  When BER mode isturn on a bit error rate can be read on the subscriber side to determine the quality of a registeredlink.    If the Access Point module is in a cluster with other modules then this parameter on all unitsmust be set exactly the same.   Continually, when this feature is on the aggregate availablebandwidth will decrease by ~200 Kbps.Community String:  enter a string that will allow a SNMP management server accessibility to theSNMP information.  There must not be any spaces in the community string.  The default for thisparameter is “Canopy”.Accessing Subnet:  enter the network that will be allowed to access SNMP information from thecanopy module.  There are two pieces of information needed:• The network in the form of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx• The CIDR (Classless Interdomain Routing) prefix length in the form of /xxAn example would be 198.32.0.0/16 where /16 is a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.   An Internetsearch on Classless Interdomain Routing will provide greater detail on this subject for theinexperienced network operator.  The default is to allow all networks access.Trap Address:  enter in an IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) of an SNMP management server wheretrap information can be sent.   A trap is a way for the module to tell the monitoring system thatsomething has happened.  The following are scenarios where traps would be sent:• after a reboot of the module• if a SNMP management server tried to access agent information and supplied the wrongcommunity string, wrong SNMP version number, or came from the wrong accessingsubnet.
AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 39 of 49Site Name:  enter information relating to a name given to the physical module.  This parameter willset the supplied information into the sysName SNMP MIB-II object and can be polled by a SNMPmanagement server.  The buffer size for this field is 128 characters.Site Contact:   enter contact information relating to the module.   This parameter will set thesupplied information into the sysContact SNMP MIB-II object and can be polled by a SNMPmanagement server.  The buffer size for this field is 128 characters.Site Location:  enter information relating to the physical location of the module.  This parameterwill set the supplied information into the sysLocation SNMP MIB-II object and can be polled by aSNMP management server.  The buffer size for this field is 128 characters.Save Changes:  by clicking on this button, any changes that have been made on the Configurationpage will be committed to flash memory and will take effect after the next module reboot.Undo Save Changes:  by clicking on this button, any changes that have been made and notcommitted through a reboot of the module will be undone.Set to Factory Defaults:  depressing this button will change all of the configurable parameters (allof which are contained on the Configuration page) back to their factory settings.Reboot:  depressing this button will reboot the module.CANOPY DEFAULT PLUGWhen inserted, the default plug brings the module up with a default configuration. This allows theoperator to regain control of a module, which may be using an IP address and/or password thathas been forgotten. The default plug will also override the passwords for access and changecontrol and set the LAN1 IP address back to 169.254.1.1. This does not, by itself, change anyconfiguration, rather, it allows the operator to attach to the module using the default configurationso that they can read the actual non-default values and set them accordingly.The following steps outline the creation of a default plug (this plug can also be purchase for anominal fee at http://www.best-tronics.com/motorola):• Obtain a RJ-11, 6-pin connector and a small length of CAT 5 cable.• Pin-out all 6-pins and then short (i.e. solder) together pins 4 and 6 on the other end.Remaining wires should not be connected to anything.- pin 1 → white / orange- pin 2 → white / green- pin 3 → white / blue- pin 4 → green solder to orange- pin 5 → blue- pin 6 → orange  solder to green• Insert “default plug” in the GPS sync port of the module and apply power to the module viaits Ethernet cable.When the module is booted up (power applied) it will be in default mode where the IP address willbe 169.254.1.1 and the passwords will be blank.  All other configurations will have been preserved.

AP_CMM2 User Manual Page 47 of 49APPENDIXThere are two basic concepts that are needed for a basic understanding of networking, IPaddresses and subnet masks.   IP addresses are 32-bit binary numbers that have twocorresponding parts or sub-addresses, the first part identifying the network and the second partidentifying the hosts on the network.   An imaginary boundary separates the first part from thesecond.   This  imaginary  boundary  is  marked  by  way  of  the  subnet  mask.   The  subnet  mask  isanother 32-bit binary number the acts like a filter on the IP address.  When a subnet mask has a bitset to 1, the corresponding bit in the IP address is part of the network address.   A subnet isclassified as either a class A, class B, or class C network.  The following table shows the commonsubnet mask classes:Class Network Portion Host PortionA11111111 00000000 00000000 00000000B11111111 11111111 00000000 00000000C11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000For example, if you have an IP address of 169.254.1.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0, then thefirst 16-bits of the 32-bit IP address identify the network.10101001 11111110 00000001 00000001IP address11111111 11111111 00000000 00000000Subnet MaskThere are 216 (65,536) addressable hosts in this example and 169.254 is the network.  There is onelast piece of information that is needed here.   Subnet masks are not shipped around in the IPpacket, the packet only contains the 32-bit IP address of the destination.  So without this valuablepiece of information devices have no idea what portion of the IP address is part of the network andwhich is part of the host address.  How does data know where it is supposed to go?  IP systemsdeveloped a unique form of logic to make this determination.   Class A network addresses alwayshave the first bit of their IP address set to 0.  Class B network addresses always have their first bitset to 1 and their second bit set to 0.  Class C network addresses always have their first two bitsset to 1 and the third bit set to 0.   By examining these first bits of the IP address a device candetermine what subnet mask should be applied to the IP address and determine where to route thedata.The following is a synopsis of an Internet Draft (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-zeroconf-ipv4-linklocal-05.txt) that describes how Microsoft and Apple operating systems reactwhen a DHCP server is not found on the network.   In general, a computer needs certainconfiguration information to operate on a network.   Those configurations are an IP address, asubnet mask, and possibly a gateway address.   A DHCP server will automatically assign thisconfiguration information to a computer on a network or an operator is required to manually inputthese configurable items.  When a computer is brought online and a DHCP server is not accessible(i.e. server is down or the computer is not plugged into the network) Microsoft and Apple operatingsystems will default to an IP address and subnet mask of 169.254.x.x and 255.255.0.0(169.254/16).
