To monitor the status of Interface 1 is to monitor the traffic on the Ethernet interface. ◦ Interface 2 represents the RF interface of the module. To monitor the status of Interface 2 is to monitor the traffic on the RF interface. These interfaces can be viewed on the NMS through definitions that are provided in the standard MIB files. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 403 Release 8 Operations Guide 24.9 TRAPS PROVIDED IN THE CANOPY ENTERPRISE MIB Canopy modules provide the following SNMP traps for automatic notifications to the NMS: ◦ whispGPSInSync, which signals a transition from not synchronized to synchronized. ◦ whispGPSOutSync, which signals a transition from synchronized to not synchronized. ◦ whispRegComplete, which signals registration completed. ◦ whispRegLost, which signals registration lost. ◦ whispRadarDetected, which signals that the one-minute scan has been completed, radar has been detected, and the radio will shutdown. ◦ whispRadarEnd, which signals that the one-minute scan has been completed, radar has not been detected, and the radio will resume normal operation. NOTE: The PTP 400 and PTP 600 series bridges do not support the traps listed above. 24.10 TRAPS PROVIDED IN THE PTP 400 SERIES BRIDGE MIB PTP 400 series bridges (previously known as 30/60-Mbps Backhauls) provide the following SNMP traps for automatic notifications to the NMS: ◦ coldStart ◦ linkUp ◦ linkDown ◦ dfsChannelChange, which signals that the channel has changed. ◦ dfsImpulsiveInterferenceDetected, which signals that impulsive interference has been detected. 24.11 TRAPS PROVIDED IN THE PTP 600 SERIES BRIDGE MIB PTP 600 series bridges (previously known as 150/300-Mbps Backhauls) provide the following SNMP traps for automatic notifications to the NMS: ◦ coldStart ◦ linkUp ◦ linkDown ◦ dfsChannelChange, which signals that the channel has changed. ◦ dfsImpulsiveInterferenceDetected, which signals that impulsive interference has been detected. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 404 Release 8 Operations Guide 24.12 MIB VIEWERS Any of several commercially available MIB viewers can facilitate management of these objects through SNMP. Some are available as open source software. The Canopy division does not endorse, support, or discourage the use of any these viewers. To assist end users in this area, Canopy offers a starter guide for one of these viewers— MRTG (Multi Router Traffic Grapher). This starter guide is titled Canopy Network Management with MRTG: Application Note, and is available in the Document Library section under Support at http://www.motorola.com/canopy. MRTG software is available at http://mrtg.hdl.com/mrtg.html. Other MIB viewers are available and/or described at the following web sites: http://ns3.ndgsoftware.com/Products/NetBoy30/mibbrowser.html http://www.adventnet.com/products/snmputilities/ http://www.dart.com/samples/mib.asp http://www.edge-technologies.com/webFiles/products/nvision/index.cfm http://www.ipswitch.com/products/whatsup/monitoring.html http://www.koshna.com/products/KMB/index.asp http://www.mg-soft.si/mgMibBrowserPE.html http://www.mibexplorer.com http://www.netmechanica.com/mibbrowser.html http://www.networkview.com http://www.newfreeware.com/search.php3?q=MIB+browser http://www.nudesignteam.com/walker.html http://www.oidview.com/oidview.html http://www.solarwinds.net/Tools http://www.stargus.com/solutions/xray.html http://www.totilities.com/Products/MibSurfer/MibSurfer.htm Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 405 Release 8 Operations Guide 25 USING THE CANOPY NETWORK UPDATER TOOL (CNUT) The Canopy Network Updater Tool manages and automates the software and firmware upgrade process for Canopy radio and CMMmicro modules across the network. This eliminates the need for an administrator to visit each radio in the network (or each AP while using the Autoupdate feature) to upgrade the modules. 25.1 CNUT FUNCTIONS The Canopy Network Updater Tool ◦ automatically discovers all Canopy network elements ◦ executes a UDP command that initiates and terminates the Autoupdate mode within APs. This command is both secure and convenient: ◦ ◦ − For security, the AP accepts this command from only the IP address that you specify in the Configuration page of the AP. − For convenience, Network Updater automatically sets this Configuration parameter in the APs to the IP address of the Network Updater server when the server performs any of the update commands. allows you to choose among updating − your entire network. − only elements that you select. − only network branches that you select. provides a Script Engine that you can use with any script that − you define. − Canopy supplies. 25.2 NETWORK ELEMENT GROUPS With the Canopy Network Updater Tool, you can identify element groups composed of network elements that you select. Identifying these element groups ◦ organizes the display of elements (for example, by region or by AP cluster). ◦ allows you to − perform an operation on all elements in the group simultaneously. − set group-level defaults for telnet or ftp password access and SNMP Community String (defaults that can be overridden in an individual element when necessary). 25.3 NETWORK LAYERS A typical Canopy network contains multiple layers of elements, each layer lying farther from the Point of Presence. For example, SMs are behind an AP and thus, in this context, at a lower layer than the AP. Correctly portraying these layers in Network Updater is essential so that Network Updater can perform radio and AP cluster upgrades in an appropriate order. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 407 Release 8 Operations Guide IMPORTANT! Correct layer information ensures that Network Updater does not command an AP that is behind another AP/SM pair (such as in a remote AP installation) to perform an upgrade at the same time as the SM that is feeding the AP. If this occurs, then the remote AP loses network connection during the upgrade (when the SM in front of the AP completes its upgrade and reboots). 25.4 SCRIPT ENGINE Script Engine is the capability in Network Updater that executes any user-defined script against any network element or element group. This capability is useful for network management, especially for scripts that you repetitively execute across your network. The Autodiscovery capability in Network Updater finds all of your Canopy network elements. This comprehensive discovery ◦ ensures that, when you intend to execute a script against all elements, the script is indeed executed against all elements. ◦ maintains master lists of elements (element groups) against which you selectively execute scripts. The following scripts are included with CNUT: ◦ AP Data Import from BAM ◦ AP Data Export to BAM ◦ Set Autoupdate Address on APs ◦ Set SNMP Accessibility ◦ Reset Unit 25.5 SOFTWARE DEPENDENCIES FOR CNUT CNUT functionality requires ◦ one of the following operating systems ® − Windows 2000 − Windows XP − Red Hat Linux 9 − Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version 3 ◦ Java™ Runtime Version 1.4.2 or later ◦ Perl 5.8.0 or ActivePerl 5.8.3 software or later 25.6 CNUT DOWNLOAD CNUT can be downloaded together with each Canopy system release that supports CNUT. Software for these Canopy system releases is packaged on the Canopy Support web page as either ◦ a .zip file for use without the CNUT application. ◦ a .pkg file that the CNUT application can open. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 408 Release 8 Operations Guide 26 USING INFORMATIONAL TABS IN THE GUI 26.1 VIEWING GENERAL STATUS (ALL) See ◦ General Status Tab of the AP on Page 201. ◦ General Status Tab of the SM on Page 198. ◦ General Status Tab of the BHM on Page 213. ◦ Beginning the Test of Point-to-Point Links on Page 210. 26.2 VIEWING SESSION STATUS (AP, BHM) The Session Status tab in the Home page provides information about each SM that has registered to the AP. This information is useful for managing and troubleshooting a Canopy system. This tab also includes the current active values on each SM for MIR, CIR, and VLAN, as well as the source of these values, representing the SM itself, BAM, or the AP and cap. An example of the Session Status tab is displayed in Figure 142. Figure 142: Session Status tab data, example An additional example and explanations of the fields on this tab are provided in Session Status Tab of the AP on Page 193. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 409 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.3 VIEWING REMOTE SUBSCRIBERS (AP, BHM) See ◦ Remote Subscribers Tab of the AP on Page 197. ◦ Continuing the Test of Point-to-Point Links on Page 212. 26.4 INTERPRETING MESSAGES IN THE EVENT LOG (ALL) Each line in the Event Log of a module Home page begins with a time and date stamp. However, some of these lines wrap as a combined result of window width, browser preferences, and line length. You may find this tab easiest to use if you widen the window until all lines are shown as beginning with the time and date stamp. 26.4.1 Time and Date Stamp The time and date stamp reflect either ◦ GPS time and date directly or indirectly received from the CMM. ◦ the running time and date that you have set in the Time & Date web page. NOTE: In the Time & Date web page, if you have left any time field or date field unset and clicked the Set Time and Date button, then the time and date default to 00:00:00 UT : 01/01/00. A reboot causes the preset time to pause or, in some cases, to run in reverse. Additionally, a power cycle resets the running time and date to the default 00:00:00 UT : 01/01/00. Thus, whenever either a reboot or a power cycle has occurred, you should reset the time and date in the Time & Date web page of any module that is not set to receive sync. 26.4.2 Event Log Data Collection The collection of event data continues through reboots and power cycles. When the buffer allowance for event log data is reached, the system adds new data into the log and discards an identical amount of the oldest data. Each line that contains the expression WatchDog flags an event that was both ◦ considered by the system software to have been an exception ◦ recorded in the preceding line. Conversely, a Fatal Error() message flags an event that is recorded in the next line. Some exceptions and fatal errors may be significant and require either operator action or technical support. An example portion of Event Log data is displayed in Figure 143. In this figure (unlike in the Event Log web page) ◦ lines are alternately highlighted to show the varying length of wrapped lines. ◦ the types of event messages (which follow the time and date stamps and the file and line references) are underscored as quoted in Table 64 and Table 65. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 410 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 143: Event Log tab data, example Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 411 Release 8 26.4.3 Operations Guide Messages that Flag Abnormal Events The messages listed in Table 64 flag abnormal events and, case by case, may signal the need for corrective action or technical support. See Troubleshooting on Page 463. Table 64: Event Log messages for abnormal events Event Message Expected LUID = 6 LUID = 7 Meaning Actual Something is interfering with the control messaging of the module. Also ensure that you are using shielded cables to minimize interference. Consider trying different frequency options to eliminate or reduce interference. FatalError() The event recorded on the line immediately beneath this message triggered the Fatal Error(). Loss of GPS Sync Pulse Module has lost GPS sync signal. Machine Check Exception This is a symptom of a possible hardware failure. If this is a recurring message, begin the RMA process for the module. RcvFrmNum = 0x00066d ExpFrmNum = 0x000799 Something is interfering with the control messaging of the module. Also ensure that you are using shielded cables to minimize interference. Consider trying different frequency options to eliminate or reduce interference. System Reset Exception -- External Hard Reset The unit lost power or was power cycled. System Reset Exception -- External Hard Reset WatchDog The event recorded on the preceding line triggered this WatchDog message. 26.4.4 Messages that Flag Normal Events The messages listed in Table 65 record normal events and typically do not signal a need for any corrective action or technical support. Table 65: Event Log messages for normal events Event Message Meaning Acquired GPS Sync Pulse. Module has acquired GPS sync signal. FPGA Features Type of encryption. FPGA Version FPGA (JBC) version in the module. GPS Date/Time Set Module is now on GPS time. PowerOn reset from Telnet command line Reset command was issued from a telnet session.

System Log Cleared Event log was manually cleared. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 412 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.5 VIEWING THE NETWORK INTERFACE TAB (ALL) Figure 144: Network Interface tab of AP, example Figure 145: Network Interface tab of SM, example In any module, the LAN1 Network Interface section of this tab displays the defined Internet Protocol scheme for the Ethernet interface to the module. In slave devices, this tab also provides an RF Public Network Interface section, which displays the Internet Protocol scheme defined for network access through the master device (AP or BHM). Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 413 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.6 INTERPRETING RADIO STATISTICS IN THE SCHEDULER TAB (ALL) Figure 146: Scheduler tab of SM, example Statistics for the Scheduler are displayed as shown in Figure 146. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 414 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.7 VIEWING THE LIST OF REGISTRATION FAILURES (AP, BHM) An example of the SM Registration Failures tab is displayed in Figure 147. Figure 147: SM Registration Failures tab of AP, example The SM Registration Failures tab identifies SMs (or BHSs) that have recently attempted and failed to register to this AP (or BHM). With its time stamps, these instances may suggest that a new or transient source of interference exists. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 415 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.8 INTERPRETING DATA IN THE BRIDGING TABLE (ALL) An example of the Bridging Table tab is displayed in Figure 148. Figure 148: Bridging Table tab of AP, example If NAT (network address translation) is not active on the SM, then the Bridging Table tab provides the MAC address of all devices that are attached to registered SMs (identified by LUIDs). The bridging table allows data to be sent to the correct module as follows: ◦ For the AP, the uplink is from RF to Ethernet. Thus, when a packet arrives in the RF interface to the AP, the AP reads the MAC address from the inbound packet and creates a bridging table entry of the source MAC address on the other end of the RF interface. ◦ For the SM, BHM, and BHS, the uplink is from Ethernet to RF. Thus, when a packet arrives in the Ethernet interface to one of these modules, the module reads the MAC address from the inbound packet and creates a bridging table entry of the source MAC address on the other end of the Ethernet interface. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 416 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.9 TRANSLATION TABLE (SM) When Translation Bridging is enabled in the AP, each SM keeps a table mapping MAC addresses of devices attached to the AP to IP addresses, as otherwise the mapping of end-user MAC addresses to IP addresses is lost. (When Translation Bridging is enabled, an AP modifies all uplink traffic originating from registered SM’s such that the source MAC address of every packet will be changed to that of the SM which bridged the packet in the uplink direction.) An example of the Translaton Table is displayed in Figure 149. Figure 149: Translation Table tab of SM, example 26.10 INTERPRETING DATA IN THE ETHERNET TAB (ALL) The Ethernet tab of the Statistics web page reports TCP throughput and error information for the Ethernet connection of the module. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 417 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 150: Ethernet tab of AP, example The Ethernet tab displays the following fields. inoctets Count This field displays how many octets were received on the interface, including those that deliver framing information. inucastpkts Count This field displays how many inbound subnetwork-unicast packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. Innucastpkts Count This field displays how many inbound non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetworkmulticast) packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. indiscards Count This field displays how many inbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. (Some of these packets may have been discarded to increase buffer space.) inerrors Count This field displays how many inbound packets contained errors that prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 418 Release 8 Operations Guide inunknownprotos Count This field displays how many inbound packets were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. outoctets Count This field displays how many octets were transmitted out of the interface, including those that deliver framing information. outucastpkts Count This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a subnetwork-unicast address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outnucastpkts Count This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetwork-multicast) address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outdiscards Count This field displays how many outbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their transmission.

A collision that occurs after the first 512 bits is considered a late collision. IMPORTANT! A late collision is a serious network problem because the frame being transmitted is discarded. A late collision is most commonly caused by a mismatch between duplex configurations at the ends of a link segment. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 419 Release 8 Operations Guide RetransLimitExp This field displays how many times the retransmit limit has expired. TxUnderrun This field displays how many transmission-underrun errors occurred on the Ethernet controller. CarSenseLost This field displays how many carrier sense lost errors occurred on the Ethernet controller. 26.11 INTERPRETING RF CONTROL BLOCK STATISTICS IN THE RADIO TAB (ALL) Figure 151: Radio tab of Statistics page in SM, example The Radio tab of the Statistics page displays the following fields. inoctets Count This field displays how many octets were received on the interface, including those that deliver framing information. inucastpkts Count This field displays how many inbound subnetwork-unicast packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. Innucastpkts Count This field displays how many inbound non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetworkmulticast) packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 420 Release 8 Operations Guide indiscards Count This field displays how many inbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. (Some of these packets may have been discarded to increase buffer space.) inerrors Count This field displays how many inbound packets contained errors that prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. inunknownprotos Count This field displays how many inbound packets were discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol. outoctets Count This field displays how many octets were transmitted out of the interface, including those that deliver framing information. outucastpkts Count This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a subnetwork-unicast address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outnucastpkts Count This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetwork-multicast) address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outdiscards Count This field displays how many outbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their transmission. (Some of these packets may have been discarded to increase buffer space.) outerrrors Count This field displays how many outbound packets contained errors that prevented their transmission. 26.12 INTERPRETING DATA IN THE VLAN TAB (AP, SM) The VLAN tab in the Statistics web page provides a list of the most recent packets that were filtered because of VLAN membership violations. An example of the VLAN tab is shown in Figure 152. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 421 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 152: VLAN tab of AP, example Interpret entries under Most Recent Filtered Frames as follows: ◦ Unknown—This should not occur. Contact Canopy Technical Support. ◦ Only Tagged—The packet was filtered because the configuration is set to accept only packets that have an 802.1Q header, and this packet did not. ◦ Ingress—When the packet entered through the wired Ethernet interface, the packet was filtered because it indicated an incorrect VLAN membership. ◦ Local Ingress—When the packet was received from the local TCP/IP stack, the packet was filtered because it indicated an incorrect VLAN membership. This should not occur. Contact Canopy Technical Support. ◦ Egress—When the packet attempted to leave through the wired Ethernet interface, the packet was filtered because it indicated an incorrect VLAN membership. ◦ Local Egress—When the packet attempted to reach the local TCP/IP stack, the packet was filtered because it indicated an incorrect VLAN membership. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 422 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.13 DATA VC (ALL) Figure 153: Data VC tab of SM, example The Data VC tab page displays the following fields. VC This field displays the virtual channel number. Low priority channels start at VC18 and count up. High priority channels start at VC255 and count down. If one VC is displayed, the high-priority channel is disabled. If two are displayed, the high-priority channel is enabled CoS This field displays the Class of Service for the virtual channel. The low priority channel is a CoS of 00, and the high priority channel is a CoS of 01. CoS of 02 through 07 are not currently used. Queue Overflow Cnt This is a count of packets that were discarded because the queue for the VC was already full. inoctets Cnt This field displays how many octets were received on the interface, including those that deliver framing information. inucastpkts Cnt This field displays how many inbound subnetwork-unicast packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. Innucastpkts Cnt This field displays how many inbound non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetworkmulticast) packets were delivered to a higher-layer protocol. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 423 Release 8 Operations Guide indiscards Cnt This field displays how many inbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. (Some of these packets may have been discarded to increase buffer space.) inerrors Cnt This field displays how many inbound packets contained errors that prevented their delivery to a higher-layer protocol. outoctets Cnt This field displays how many octets were transmitted out of the interface, including those that deliver framing information. outucastpkts Cnt This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a subnetwork-unicast address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outnucastpkts Cnt This field displays how many packets for which the higher-level protocols requested transmission to a non-unicast (subnetwork-broadcast or subnetwork-multicast) address. The number includes those that were discarded or not sent. outdiscards Cnt This field displays how many outbound packets were discarded without errors that would have prevented their transmission. (Some of these packets may have been discarded to increase buffer space.) outerrrors Cnt This field displays how many outbound packets contained errors that prevented their transmission. 26.14 FILTER (SM) The Filter tab displays statistics on packets that have been filtered (dropped) due to the filters set on the SM’s Protocol Filtering tab. An example of the Filter tab is shown in Figure 154. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 424 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 154: Filter tab on SM, example 26.15 NAT STATS (SM) When NAT is enabled on an SM, statistics are kept on the Public and Private (WAN and LAN) sides of the NAT, and displayed on the NAT Stats tab. An example of the NAT Stats tab is shown in Figure 155. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 425 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 155: Nat Stats tab on SM, example 26.15.1 NAT DHCP Statistics (SM) When NAT is enable on an SM with DHCP client and/or Server, statistics are kept for packets transmitted, received, and tossed, as well as a table of lease information for the DHCP server (Assigned IP Address, Hardware Address, and Lease Remained/State). An example of the NAT DHCP Statistics tab is shown in Figure 156. Figure 156: NAT DHCP Statistics tab in SM, example Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 426 Release 8 Operations Guide 26.15.2 Interpreting Data in the GPS Status Page (AP, BHM) The GPS Status tab is only displayed when the Sync Input is set to Sync to Received Signal (Timing Port), which is the configuration desired when connecting an AP or BHM to a CMM2. See Sync Input on Page 237. The page displays information similar to that available on the web pages of a CMM3, including Pulse Status, GPS Time and Date, Satellites Tracked, Available Satellites, Height, Lattitude and Longitude. This page also displays the state of the antenna in the Antenna Connection field as ◦ Unknown—Shown for early CMM2s. ◦ OK—Shown for later CMM2s where no problem is detected in the signal. ◦ Overcurrent—Indicates a coax cable or connector problem. ◦ Undercurrent—Indicates a coax cable or connector problem. IMPORTANT! If Unknown is displayed where a later CMM2 is deployed, then the connection is not working but the reason is unknown. This information may be helpful in a decision of whether to climb a tower to diagnose a perceived antenna problem. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 427 Release 8 Operations Guide 27 USING TOOLS IN THE GUI 27.1 USING THE SPECTRUM ANALYZER TOOL (SM, BHS) See Monitoring the RF Environment on Page 363. 27.2 USING THE ALIGNMENT TOOL (SM, BHS) An example of the Alignment tab in an SM or BHS is displayed in Figure 157. Figure 157: Alignment tab of BHS, example Proper alignment must achieve all of the following indications for an acceptable link between the modules: ◦ RSSI typically at least 10 dBM above receiver sensitivity ◦ jitter value between 0 and 4 ◦ uplink and downlink efficiency greater than 90%, except as described under Comparing Efficiency in 1X Operation to Efficiency in 2X Operation on Page 135. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 429 Release 8 Operations Guide IMPORTANT! If any of these values is not achieved, a link can be established but will manifest occasional problems. In the Alignment tab, you may set the following parameters. RSSI Only Mode In the RSSI Only Mode, the screen displays the signal strength based on the amount of energy in the selected frequency, regardless of whether the module has registered. This mode simplifies the aiming process for long links. To invoke the RSSI Only Mode, select Enabled. Radio Carrier Frequency If you enabled the RSSI Only Mode, select the frequency (in MHz) for the aiming operation. The Alignment tab also provides the following buttons. Enable A click of this button launches the slave device into alignment mode. Each further click refreshes the data in the tab to display the latest measurements collected. Disable A click of this button changes the slave device from alignment mode back to operating mode. The Alignment tab also provides the following read-only fields. Current Status This field indicates either SM is in Alignment Mode or SM is in Operating Mode. This syntax is used in an SM and in a BHS. RSSI This field displays the Radio Signal Strength Indicator units and, in parentheses, the current power level, of the signal received from the AP or BHM. Jitter This field displays the jitter level of the signal received from the AP or BHM. Number Registered Users This field displays how many slave devices are currently registered to the master device whose beacon is being received during the aiming period. In addition, the Alignment tab includes the following Detailed Beacon Information where it is available. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 430 Release 8 Operations Guide Average measured RSSI This field displays the Radio Signal Strength Indicator units and, in parentheses, the power level as an average of the measurements that were collected throughout the aiming period. Try for the highest power level that you can achieve at the least amount of jitter. For example, if you achieve a power level of −75 dBm with a jitter level of 5, and further refine the alignment to achieve a power level of −78 dBm with a jitter level of 2 or 3, the link is better because of the further refinement. Average measured Jitter This field displays Jitter as an average of the measurements that were collected throughout the aiming period. In 1X operation, jitter values of 0 to 4 are acceptable. In 2X operation, jitter values 0 to 9 are acceptable. In either mode, 0 to 15 is the range of possible values that the Jitter field reports. Within the acceptable range, incremental improvements in the jitter level achieved can significantly improve link quality where power level is not significantly diminished by re-aiming. Users This is a count of the number of SMs registered to the AP you are aligning to. Frequency This field displays the frequency in MHz of the signal that was being received during the aiming period. ESN This field displays the MAC address of the AP or BHM you are aligning to. Color Code This field displays the color code of the AP or BHM you are aligning to. Backhaul This field displays a 1 if the device you are aligning to is a BHM, and a 0 if the device you are aligning to is an AP. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 431 Release 8 Operations Guide 27.3 USING THE LINK CAPACITY TEST TOOL (ALL) An example of the Link Capacity Test tab is displayed in Figure 158. Figure 158: Link Capacity Test tab with 1522-byte packet length, example The Link Capacity Test page allows you to measure the throughput and efficiency of the RF link between two Canopy modules. Many factors, including packet length, affect throughput. The Link Capacity Test tab contains the settable parameter Packet Length with a range of 64 to 1522 bytes. This allows you to compare throughput levels that result from various packet sizes. For example, the same link was measured in the same time frame at a packet length of 64 bytes. The results are shown in Figure 159. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 432 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 159: Link Capacity Test tab with 64-byte packet length, example To test a link, perform the following steps. Procedure 40: Performing a Link Capacity Test 1. Access the Link Capacity Test tab in the Tools web page of the module. 2. If you are running this test from an AP a. and you want to see Maximum Information Rate (MIR) data for the SM whose link you will be testing, then perform the following steps: (1) For Link Test with MIR, select Enabled. (2) Click the Save Changes button. (3) Click the Reboot button. b. use the drop-down list to select the SM whose link you want to test. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 433 Release 8 Operations Guide 3. Type into the Duration field how long (in seconds) the RF link should be tested. 4. Type into the Packet Length field the packet length at which you want the test conducted. 5. Type into the Number of Packets field either ◦ the number of packets (1 to 64) for the test. ◦ 0 to flood the link for as long as the test is in progress. 6. Click the Start Test button. 7. In the Current Results Status block of this tab, view the results of the test. 8. Optionally a. change the packet length. b. repeat Steps 5 and 6. c. compare the results to those of other tests. =========================== end of procedure =========================== The key fields in the test results are ◦ Downlink RATE and Uplink RATE, expressed in bits per second ◦ Downlink Efficiency and Uplink Efficiency, expressed as a percentage A Canopy system link is acceptable only if the efficiencies of the link test are greater than 90% in both the uplink and downlink direction, except during 2X operation. See Using Link Efficiency to Check Received Signal Quality on Page 135. Whenever you install a new link, execute a link test to ensure that the efficiencies are within recommended guidelines. The AP downlink data percentage, slot settings, other traffic in the sector, and the quality of the RF environment all affect throughput. However, a Maximum Information Rate (MIR) throttle or cap on the SM does not affect throughput. 27.4 USING THE AP EVALUATION OR BHM EVALUATION TOOL (SM, BHS) The AP Evaluation tab in the Tools web page of the SM provides information about the AP that the SM sees. Similarly, the BHM Evaluation tab of the BHS provides information about the BHM. An example of the AP Evaluation tab is shown in Figure 160. NOTE: The data for this page can be suppressed by the SM Display of AP Evaluation Data selection in the Security tab of the Configuration page in the AP. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 434 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 160: AP Evaluation tab of SM, example The AP Evaluation tab provides the following fields that can be useful to manage and troubleshoot a Canopy system: Index This field displays the index value that the Canopy system assigns (for only this page) to the AP where this SM is registered (or to the BHM to which this BHS is registered). Frequency This field displays the frequency that the AP or BHM transmits. ESN This field displays the MAC address (electronic serial number) of the AP or BHM. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 435 Release 8 Operations Guide Jitter, RSSI, and Power Level The AP Evaluation tab shows the received Power Level in dBm and Jitter. Proper alignment maximizes Power Level and minimizes Jitter. As you refine alignment, you should favor lower jitter over higher dBm. For example, if coarse alignment gives an SM a power level of −75 dBm and a jitter measurement of 5, and further refining the alignment drops the power level to −78 dBm and the jitter to 2 or 3, use the refined alignment, with the following caveats: ◦ When the receiving link is operating at 1X, the Jitter scale is 0 to 15 with desired jitter between 0 and 4. ◦ When the receiving link is operating at 2X, the Jitter scale is 0 to 15 with desired jitter between 0 and 9. For historical relevance, the AP Evaluation tab also shows the RSSI, the unitless measure of power. Use Power Level and ignore RSSI. RSSI implies more accuracy and precision than is inherent in its measurement. NOTE: Unless the page is set to auto-refresh, the values displayed are from the instant the General Status tab was selected. To keep a current view of the values, refresh the browser screen or set to auto-refresh. Beacon Count A count of the beacons seen in a given time period. BRcvW DFS FEC Type Multipoint indicates an AP, not a BHM. Age Lockout This field displays how many times the SM or BHS has been temporarily locked out of making registration attempts. RegFail This field displays how many registration attempts by this SM or BHS failed. Range This field displays the distance in feet for this link. To derive the distance in meters, multiply the value of this parameter by 0.3048. TxBER A 1 in this field indicates the AP or BHM is sending Radio BER. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 436 Release 8 Operations Guide EBcast A 1 in this field indicates the AP or BHM is encrypting broadcasst packets. A 0 indicates it is not. Session Count This field displays how many sessions the SM (or BHS) has had with the AP (or BHM). Typically, this is the sum of Reg Count and Re-Reg Count. However, the result of internal calculation may display here as a value that slightly differs from the sum. In the case of a multipoint link, if the number of sessions is significantly greater than the number for other SMs, then this may indicate a link problem or an interference problem. NoLUIDs OutOfRange AuthFail This field displays how many times authentication attempts from this SM have failed in the AP. EncryptFail This field displays how many times an encryption mismatch has occurred between the SM and the AP. Rescan Req FrameNumber Sector ID This field displays the value of the Sector ID field that is provisioned for the AP or BHM. Color Code This field displays the value of the Color Code field that is provisioned for the AP or BHM. BeaconVersion Sector User Count This field displays how many SMs are registered on the AP. Frequency This field displays the frequency of the received signal, expressed in MHz. NumULHalfSlots This is the number of uplink half slots in this AP or BHM’s frame. To get slots, just divide by 2. NumDLHalfSlots This is the number of downlink half slots in this AP or BHM’s frame. To get slots, just divide by 2. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 437 Release 8 Operations Guide NumULContSlots This field displays how many control slots are being used in the uplink portion of the frame. The AP Evaluation tab also provides the following buttons. Rescan APs You can click this button to force the SM or BHS to rescan the frequencies that are selected in the Radio tab of the Configuration page. (See Custom Radio Frequency Scan Selection List on Page 273.) This module will then register to the AP or BHM that provides the best results for power level, jitter, and—in an SM—the number of registered SMs. Update Display You can click this button to gather updated data without causing the SM or BHS to rescan and re-register. 27.5 USING THE FRAME CALCULATOR TOOL (ALL) Canopy avoids self-interference by syncing collocated APs (so they begin each transmission cycle at the same time) and requiring that collocated APs have the same transmit/receive ratio (so they stop transmitting and start receiving at the same time). This ensures that, at any instant, they are either all receiving or all transmitting. This avoids, for example, the problem of one AP attempting to receive from a distant SM, while a nearby AP is transmitting and overpowering the signal from the distant SM. Parameters that affect transmit/receive ratio include range, slots, downlink data percentage, and high priority uplink percentage. All collocated APs must have the same transmit/receive ratio. Additional engineering is needed for setting the parameters in a mixed cluster – one with APs on hardware scheduler and APs on software scheduler. A frame calculator helps to do this. The operator inputs various AP settings into the calculator, and the calculator outputs many details on the frame including the Uplink Rcv SQ Start. This calculation should be done for each AP that has different settings. Then the operator varies the Downlink Data percentage in each calculation until the calculated Uplink Rcv SQ Start for all collocated APs is within 300 time bits. The frame calculator is accessed by clicking on Expanded Stats in the navigation column, then clicking on Frame Calculator (at the bottom of the expanded navigation column). The calculator does not use data on the module or populate new data. It is merely a convenience application running on the module. For this reason, you can use any module to do the calculations for any AP. Running the calculator on the AP in question is not necessary. IMPORTANT! APs with slightly mismatched transmit/receive ratios and low levels of data traffic may see little effect on throughput. As the data traffic increases, the impact of mismatched transmit/receive ratios will increase. This means that a system that was not tuned for collocation may work fine at low traffic levels, but encounter problems at higher traffic level. The conservative practice is to tune for collocation from the beginning, and prevent future problems as sectors are built out and traffic increases. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 438 Release 8 Operations Guide An example of the Frame Calculator tab is shown in Figure 161. Figure 161: Frame Calculator tab, example In the Frame Calculator tab, you may set the following parameters. Software Version Transmitter From the drop-down menu, select the Canopy software release that runs on the AP(s). Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 439 Release 8 Operations Guide Software Version Receiver From the drop-down menu, select the Canopy software release that runs on the SM(s). Transmit Sync Input If the APs in the cluster ◦ receive sync from a CMMmicro, select Sync to Received Signal (Power Port). ◦ receive sync from a CMM2, select Sync to Received Signal (Timing Port). ◦ are self timed, select Generate Sync Signal. Link Mode For AP to SM frame calculations, select Multipoint Link. Max Range Set to the same value as the Max Range parameter is set in the AP(s). Air Delay Leave this parameter set to the default value of 0 bits. Scheduling Initially select Software. Mobility Leave the default value of Off selected. Wireless/Wired Leave the default value of Wireless Link selected. Platform Type Transmitter Use the drop-down list to select the hardware series (board type) of the AP. Platform Type Receiver Use the drop-down list to select the hardware series (board type) of the SM. Frequency Band Use the drop-down list to select the radio frequency band of the AP and SM. External Bus Frequency Transmitter Leave this parameter set to the default value of 40. External Bus Frequency Receiver Leave this parameter set to the default value of 40. Downlink Data Initially set this parameter to the same value that the AP has for its Downlink Data parameter (percentage). Then, as you use the Frame Calculator tool in Procedure 41, you will vary the value in this parameter to find the proper value to write into the Downlink Data parameter of all APs in the cluster. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 440 Release 8 Operations Guide High Priority Uplink Percentage If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the High Priority Uplink Percentage parameter in the AP. Total Number UACK Slots If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the Total NumUAckSlots parameter in the AP. Number High If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the Num High parameter associated with Total NumUAckSlots in the AP. Number DACK Slots If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the NumDAckSlots parameter in the AP. Number High If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the Num High parameter associated with NumDAckSlots in the AP. Number Control Slots Set this parameter to the current value of the Control Slots (for Release 8) or NumCtlSlots (for earlier releases) parameter in the AP. In Release 8, the Control Slots parameter is present in the Radio tab of the Configuration web page. Number High If the AP is running Canopy software earlier than Release 8, set this parameter to the current value of the Num High parameter associated with NumCtlSlots in the AP. To use the Frame Calculator, perform the following steps. Procedure 41: Using the Frame Calculator 1. Populate the Frame Calculator parameters with appropriate values as described above. 2. Click the Apply Settings button. 3. Click the Calculate button. 4. Scroll down the tab to the Calculated Frame Results section. NOTE: An example of the Calculated Frame Results section is displayed in Figure 162. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 441 Release 8 Operations Guide Figure 162: Calculated Frame Results section of Frame Calculator tab, example 5. Record the value of the Uplink Rcv SQ Start field. 6. Scroll up to the Scheduling parameter. 7. Select Hardware. 8. Click the Apply Settings button. RESULT: The values in the Calculated Frame Results section are updated for hardware scheduling. 9. In the Number Control Slots parameter, type in the number needed. 10. Click the Apply Settings button. 11. Click the Calculate button. 12. Scroll down the tab to the Calculated Frame Results section. If “Invalid Configuration” is displayed, check and change values and settings, with special attention to the Platform Type parameters (P7, P8, and so on). 13. Record the value of the Uplink Rcv SQ Start field. 14. If the recorded values of the Uplink Rcv SQ Start field are within 150 time bits of each other, skip the next step. 15. Repeat this procedure, changing the value of the Downlink Data parameter until the values that this tool calculates for the Uplink Rcv SQ Start field are within 150 time bits of each other regardless of the selection in the Scheduling parameter. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 442 Release 8 Operations Guide 16. When they are within 150 time bits, access the Radio tab in the Configuration web page of each AP in the cluster and change its Downlink Data parameter (percentage) to the last value that you used in the Frame Calculator. See Figure 77: Radio tab of AP (900 MHz), example on Page 241. =========================== end of procedure =========================== 27.6 USING THE SM CONFIGURATION TOOL (AP, BHM) The SM Configuration tab in the Tools page of the AP or BHM displays ◦ the current values whose control may be subject to the setting in the Configuration Source parameter. ◦ an indicator of the source for each value. An example of the SM Configuration tab is displayed in Figure 163. Figure 163: SM Configuration tab of AP, example Indicators for configuration source are explained under Session Status Tab of the AP on Page 193. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 443 Release 8 Operations Guide 27.7 USING THE BER RESULTS TOOL (SM, BHS) Radio BER is now supported on hardware scheduling. When looking at Radio BER data it is important to note that it represents bit errors at the RF link level. Due to CRC checks on fragments and packets and ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest), the BER of customer data is essentially zero. Radio BER gives one indication of link quality, along with received power level, jitter, and link tests. BER is only instrumented on the downlink, and can be read on each SM’s Tools>BER Results page. Each time the tab is clicked, the current results are read, and counters are reset to zero. An example of the BER Results tab is displayed in Figure 164. Figure 164: BER Results tab of SM, example The BER Results tab can be helpful in troubleshooting poor link performance. The value in the Measured Total Bit Error Rate field represents the bit error rate (BER) in the RF link since the last time the BER Results tab was clicked. −4 The link is acceptable if the value of this field is less than 10 . If the BER is greater than −4 10 , re-evaluate the installation of both modules in the link. The BER test signal is only broadcast by the AP (and compared to the expected test signal by the SM) when capacity in the sector allows it – it is the lowest priority for AP transmissions.

The interface screens on each module display the Canopy or Canopy Advantage logo. These logos can be replaced with other logos using Procedure 42. The logo is a hyperlink and clicking on it takes the user to the Canopy web site. A different site (perhaps the operator’s support site) can be made the destination using Procedure 43. To return a module to regular logos and hyperlinks, use Procedure 44. The logo at the top of each page is a key indicator to the user whether a module is Canopy or Canopy Advantage. If you choose to replace the Canopy logos, use two noticeably different logos so that users can continue to easily distinguish between a Canopy module and a Canopy Advantage module. To replace logos and hyperlinks efficiently throughout your network, read the following two procedures, write a script, and execute your script through the Canopy Network Updater Tool (CNUT). To replace them individually, use one of the following two procedures. Procedure 42: Replacing the Canopy logo on the GUI with another logo 1. If the current logo is the Canopy logo, name your custom logo file on your computer canopy.jpg and put it in your home directory. If the current logo is the Canopy Advantage logo, name your custom logo file on your computer advantaged.jpg and put it in your home directory. 2.

However, the examples in this section are based on free-of-charge Ethereal software, which is available at http://ethereal.com/. The equipment required to set up a protocol analyzer includes: ◦ 1 hub ◦ 1 laptop computer with protocol analyzer software installed ◦ 2 straight-through Ethernet cables ◦ 1 Canopy power converter (ACPS110) 31.1 ANALYZING TRAFFIC AT AN SM The IP address of the protocol analyzer laptop computer must match the IP addressing scheme of the SM. If the SM has DHCP enabled, then configure the laptop computer to automatically obtain an address. If DHCP is not enabled, then ensure that the laptop computer is configured with a static IP address in the same subnet as the SM. The configuration for analyzing traffic at an SM is shown in Figure 168.

If the router is configured to be a DHCP server, then configure the laptop computer to automatically obtain an address. If DHCP is not enabled, then ensure that the laptop computer is configured with a static IP address in the same subnet as the AP/BH. The configuration for analyzing traffic at an AP or BH that is not connected to a CMM is shown in Figure 169.

The Ethereal network protocol analyzer has changed its name to Wireshark™, but functionality and use remains much the same. This example is based on the following assumptions: ◦ All required physical cabling has been completed. ◦ The hub, protocol analyzer laptop computer, and subscriber PC are successfully connected. ◦ The SM is connected ◦ − as shown in Figure 169 on Page 454. − to the subscriber PC and the AP. Ethereal software is operational on the laptop computer.

Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 461 Release 8 Operations Guide 32 TROUBLESHOOTING 32.1 GENERAL PLANNING FOR TROUBLESHOOTING Effective troubleshooting depends in part on measures that you take before you experience trouble in your network. Canopy recommends the following measures for each site: 1. Identify troubleshooting tools that are available at your site (such as a protocol analyzer). 2. Identify commands and other sources that can capture baseline data for the site. These may include ◦ ping ◦ tracert or traceroute ◦ Link Capacity Test results ◦ throughput data ◦ Configuration tab captures ◦ Status tab captures ◦ session logs 3. Start a log for the site. 4. Include the following information in the log: ◦ operating procedures ◦ site-specific configuration records ◦ network topology ◦ software releases, boot versions, and FPGA firmware versions ◦ types of hardware deployed ◦ site-specific troubleshooting processes ◦ escalation procedures 5. Capture baseline data into the log from the sources listed in Step 2. 32.2 GENERAL FAULT ISOLATION PROCESS Effective troubleshooting also requires an effective fault isolation methodology that includes ◦ ◦ attempting to isolate the problem to the level of a system, subsystem, or link, such as − AP to SM − AP to CMM − AP to GPS − CMM to GPS − BHM to BHS − BHM to CMM − power researching Event Logs of the involved equipment. (See Interpreting Messages in the Event Log on Page 410.) Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 463 Release 8 Operations Guide ◦ answering the questions listed in the following section. ◦ reversing the last previous corrective attempt before proceeding to the next. ◦ performing only one corrective attempt at a time. 32.3 QUESTIONS TO HELP ISOLATE THE PROBLEM When a problem occurs, attempt to answer the following questions: 1. What is the history of the problem? ◦ Have we changed something recently? ◦ Have we seen other symptoms before this? 2. How wide-spread is the symptom? ◦ Is the problem on only a single SM? (If so, focus on that SM.) ◦ Is the problem on multiple SMs? If so − is the problem on one AP in the cluster? (If so, focus on that AP) − is the problem on multiple, but not all, APs in the cluster? (If so, focus on those APs) − is the problem on all APs in the cluster? (If so, focus on the CMM and the GPS signal.) 3. Based on data in the Event Log (described in Interpreting Messages in the Event Log on Page 410) ◦ does the problem correlate to External Hard Resets with no WatchDog timers? (If so, this indicates a loss of power. Correct your power problem.) ◦ is intermittent connectivity indicated? (If so, verify your configuration, power level, jitter, cables and connections, and the speed duplex of both ends of the link). ◦ does the problem correlate to loss-of-sync events? 4. Are connections made via shielded cables? 5. Does the GPS antenna have an unobstructed view of the entire horizon? 32.4 SECONDARY STEPS After preliminary fault isolation through the above steps 1. check the Canopy knowledge base (http://motorola.canopywireless.com/support/knowledge) to find whether other network operators have encountered a similar problem. 2. proceed to any appropriate set of diagnostic steps.

See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1157.html. skey Software key that correlates to the random number that the Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server generates and sends in a challenge through the AP to the SM. The network operator can create and, at some security risk, send this key over the air to the SM. The SQL database in the BAM server correlates this key to QoS information about the SM. The format of this key is 32 hexadecimal characters of 0 to 9 and a to f. This key must be unique to the individual SM. Also known as authentication key. Slave Designation that defines the role of a component relative to the role of another. This designation both applies to a Backhaul slave that receives synchronization over the air from another Backhaul module (a Backhaul timing master) and applies to a redundant Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server whose SQL database is automatically overwritten by a copy from the primary BAM server (BAM master). In each case, the slave is not a product. Rather, the slave is the role that results from deliberate configuration steps. SM Customer premises equipment (CPE) device that extends network or Internet services by communication with an Access Point Module or an Access Point cluster. SM MIB Management Information Base file that defines objects that are specific to the Subscriber Module or Backhaul timing slave. See also Management Information Base. SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol, defined in RFC 1157. A standard that is used for communications between a program (agent) in the network and a network management station (monitor). See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1157.html. SNMP Trap Capture of information that informs the network monitor through Simple Network Management Protocol of a monitored occurrence in the module. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 518 Release 8 Glossary SOAP Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). The protocol that the Northbound Interface in Prizm uses to support integration of Prizm with an operations support systems (OSS) such as a customer relationship management (CRM), billing, or provisioning system SSE Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) interface to the SQL server. Unique sets of commands are available on this interface to manage the BAM SQL database and user access. Distinguished from Engine. See also Engine. Standard Operating Margin See Fade Margin. Static IP Address Assignment Assignment of Internet Protocol address that can be changed only manually. Thus static IP address assignment requires more configuration time and consumes more of the available IP addresses than DHCP address assignment does. RFC 2050 provides guidelines for the static allocation of IP addresses. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2050.html. See also DHCP. su - A command that opens a Linux operating system session for the user root. Subnet Mask 32-bit binary number that filters an IP address to reveal what part identifies the network and what part identifies the host. The number of subnet mask bits that are set to 1 indicates how many leading bits of the IP address identify the network. The number of subnet mask bits that are set 0 indicate how many trailing bits of the IP address identify the host. Subscriber Module Customer premises equipment (CPE) device that extends network or Internet services by communication with an Access Point Module or an Access Point cluster. Sustained Data Rate Preset rate limit of data transfer. Switch Network element that uses the port that is associated with the physical address of another to pass data to only the intended recipient. Compare to Bridge and Router. SYN/1 Second-from-right LED in the module. In the Access Point Module or Backhaul timing master, as in a registered Subscriber Module or Backhaul timing slave, this LED is continuously lit to indicate the presence of sync. In the operating mode for a Subscriber Module or Backhaul timing slave, this LED flashes on and to indicate that the module is not registered. In the aiming mode for a Subscriber Module or a Backhaul timing slave, this LED is part of a bar graph that indicates the quality of the RF link. Sync GPS (Global Positioning System) absolute time, which is passed from one module to another. Sync enables timing that prevents modules from transmitting or receiving interference. Sync also provides correlative time stamps for troubleshooting efforts. Issue 2, November 2007 ® Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 519 Release 8 Glossary TCP Alternatively known as Transmission Control Protocol or Transport Control Protocol. The Transport Layer in the TCP/IP protocol stack. This protocol is applied to assure that data packets arrive at the target network element and to control the flow of data through the Internet. Defined in RFC 793. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc793.html. tcp Transport Control type of port. The Canopy system uses Port 3306:tcp ® for MySQL database communications, Port 9080:tcp for SSE telnet communications, and Port 9090:tcp for Engine telnet communications. TDD Time Division Duplexing. TDMA Time Division Multiple Access. telnet Utility that allows a client computer to update a server. A firewall can prevent the use of the telnet utility to breach the security of the server. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc818.html, http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc854.html and http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc855.html. Textual Conventions MIB Management Information Base file that defines Canopy systemspecific textual conventions. See also Management Information Base. Time of Last Transaction A field in the data that the cmd show esn command generates from data in the SQL database in the Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server. This field identifies the time of day of the most recent authentication attempt by the SM. Expressed in the database output as TLT. TLT Time of last transaction. A field in the data that the cmd show esn command generates from data in the SQL database in the Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server. This field identifies the time of day of the most recent authentication attempt by the SM. TNAF Total number of authentication requests failed. A field in the data that the cmd show esn command generates from the SQL database in the Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server. This field indicates how many times the SM (identified by ESN in the related data) attempted to authenticate but was denied by BAM. TNAR Total number of authentication requests. A field in the data that the cmd show esn command generates from the SQL database in the Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server. This field indicates how many times the SM (identified by ESN in the related data) attempted to authenticate, regardless of whether the attempt succeeded. Tokens Theoretical amounts of data. See also Buckets. TOS 8-bit field in that prioritizes data in a IP transmission. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1349.html. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 520 Release 8 Glossary TxUnderrun Field This field displays how many transmission-underrun errors occurred on the Ethernet controller. UDP User Datagram Protocol. A set of Network, Transport, and Session Layer protocols that RFC 768 defines. These protocols include checksum and address information but does not retransmit data or process any errors. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc768.html. udp User-defined type of port. U-NII Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure radio frequency band, in the 5.1-GHz through 5.8-GHz ranges. VID VLAN identifier. See VLAN. VLAN Virtual local area network. An association of devices through software that contains broadcast traffic, as routers would, but in the switch-level protocol. VPN Virtual private network for communication over a public network. One typical use is to connect remote employees, who are at home or in a different city, to their corporate network over the Internet. Any of several VPN implementation schemes is possible. With the Network Address Translation feature (NAT) enabled, SMs on Canopy System Release 4.2 or later support L2TP over IPSec (Level 2 Tunneling Protocol over IP Security) VPNs, but do not support PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol) VPNs. With NAT disabled, SMs support all types of VPNs. Issue 2, November 2007 Draft 5 for Regulatory Review 521
