Given below is the table which explains Protocol Filter parameters and the method to configure the configurable
parameter(s):
After configuring the required parameters, click OK and then COMMIT.
5.10.1.1 Protocol Filter Table
The Protocol Filter table displays a list of default protocols supported by the device and the protocols created by the user. By
default, the system generates 19 protocols entries. Each of the Protocol contains the following information:
Parameter Description
Filtering Control This parameter is used to apply filters on the device’s interface. The filtering can be applied
on any of the following interfaces:
Ethernet: Packets are examined at the Ethernet interface.
Wireless: Packets are examined at the Wireless interface.
All Interfaces: Packets are examined at both Ethernet and Wireless interface.
By default, the Filtering Control is set to Disable, meaning which Protocol Filters are
disabled on all the interfaces.
: In addition to enabling Filtering Control, the Global Filter Flag should also be
enabled to apply filters.
Filtering Type This parameter specifies the action to be performed on the data packets whose protocol
type is not defined in the protocol filter table (this table contains a list of default protocols
supported by the device and the protocols defined by the user), or whose Entry Status is in
Disable state. The available filtering types are:
Block: The protocols with entry status Disable or the protocols which do not exist in
the protocol filtering table are blocked.
Passthru: The protocols with entry status Disable or the protocols which do not exist
in the protocol filtering table are allowed through the configured interface.
Parameter Description
Protocol Name Represents the Protocol name. The system throws an error when you try to edit the name
of a default protocol.
Protocol Number Represents the Protocol number. The value is of 4 digit hexadecimal format. The system
throws an error when you try to edit the Protocol number of a default protocol.
Filter Status The supported filter status are,
Passthru: When the filter status is set to Passthru and entry status is Enable, all
packets whose protocol matches with the given protocol number are forwarded on
the configured interface.
Block: When the filter status is set to Block and entry status is Enable, all packets
whose protocol matches with the given protocol number are dropped on the
configured interface.
By default, the status is set to Block.

Enter details for all the required parameters and click Add.
: The maximum number of Protocol Filters that can be added to the table are 64, out of which 19 are default entries.
5.10.2 Static MAC Address Filter
The Static MAC Address filter optimizes the performance of a wireless (and wired) network. With this feature configured, the
device can block traffic between wired devices and wireless devices based on the MAC address.
Each MAC Address or Mask is comprised of 12 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F) that correspond to a 48-bit identifier. (Each
hexadecimal digit represents 4 bits (0 or 1)).
Taken together, a MAC Address/Mask pair specifies an address or a range of MAC addresses that the device will look for
when examining packets. The device uses Boolean logic to perform an “AND” operation between the MAC Address and the
Mask at the bit level. A Mask of 00:00:00:00:00:00 corresponds to all MAC addresses, and a Mask of FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF applies
only to the specified MAC Address.
For example, if the MAC Address is 00:20:A6:12:54:C3 and the Mask is FF:FF:FF:00:00:00, the device will examine the source
and destination addresses of each packet looking for any MAC address starting with 00:20:A6. If the Mask is FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF,
the device will only look for the specific MAC address (in this case, 00:20:A6:12:54:C3).
You can configure the Static MAC Address Filter parameters depending on the following scenarios:
To prevent all traffic from a specific wired MAC address from being forwarded to the wireless network, configure only
the Wired MAC Address and Wired Mask (leave the Wireless MAC Address and Wireless Mask set to all zeros).
Entry Status Set the entry status as either Enable, Disable or Delete.
Enable: Enables filter status on a protocol.
Disable: Disables filter status on a protocol.
Delete: Deletes a protocol entry from the Protocol Filter Table.
: System-defined default protocols cannot be deleted.
Advanced Configuration
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 173
To prevent all traffic from a specific wireless MAC address from being forwarded to the wired network, configure only
the Wireless MAC address and Wireless Mask (leave the Wired MAC Address and Wired Mask set to all zeros).
To prevent traffic between a specific wired MAC address and a specific wireless MAC address, configure all four
parameters. Configure the wired and wireless MAC address and set the wired and wireless mask to all Fs.
To prevent all traffic from a specific wired Group MAC address from being forwarded to the wireless network,
configure only the Wired MAC Address and Wired Mask (leave the Wireless MAC Address and Wireless Mask set to all
zeros).
To prevent all traffic from a specific wireless Group MAC address from being forwarded to the wired network,
configure only the Wireless MAC address and Wireless Mask (leave the Wired MAC Address and Wired Mask set to all
zeros).
To prevent traffic between a specific wired Group MAC address and a specific wireless Group MAC address, configure
all four parameters. Configure the wired and wireless MAC address and set the wired and wireless mask to all Fs.
Static MAC Filter Examples
Consider a network that contains a wired PC and three wireless PCs. The MAC addresses for each PCs are as follows:
MAC Address of the wired PC: 00:40:F4:1C:DB:6A
MAC Address of the wireless PC1: 00:02:2D:51:94:E4
MAC Address of the wireless PC2: 00:02:2D:51:32:12
MAC Address of the wireless PC3: 00:20:A6:12:4E:38
5.10.2.0.1 Prevent two specific PCs from communicating
Configure the following settings to prevent the wired PC and wireless PC1 from communicating:
Wired MAC Address: 00:40:F4:1C:DB:6A
Wired Mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Wireless MAC Address: 00:02:2D:51:94:E4
Wireless Mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Result: Traffic between the wired PC and wireless PC1 is blocked. wireless PC2 and PC3 can still communicate with the wired
PC.
5.10.2.0.2 Prevent multiple Wireless PCs from communicating with a single wired PC
Configure the following settings to prevent wireless PC1 and PC2 from communicating with the wired PC:
Wired MAC Address: 00:40:F4:1C:DB:6A
Wired Mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Wireless MAC Address: 00:02:2D:51:94:E4
Wireless Mask: FF:FF:FF:00:00:00
Result: When a logical “AND” is performed on the Wireless MAC Address and Wireless Mask, the result corresponds to any
MAC address beginning with the 00:20:2D prefix. Since wireless PC1 and wireless PC2 share the same prefix (00:02:2D),
traffic between the wired Server and wireless PC1 and PC2 is blocked. Wireless PC3 can still communicate with the wired PC
since it has a different prefix (00:20:A6).
5.10.2.0.3 Prevent all wireless PCs from communicating with a single wired PC
Configure the following settings to prevent wired PC from communicating with all three wireless PCs:
Wired MAC Address: 00:40:F4:1C:DB:6A
Wired Mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Wireless MAC Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00
Wireless Mask: 00:00:00:00:00:00
Advanced Configuration
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 174
Result: The device blocks all traffic between the wired PC and all wireless PCs.
5.10.2.0.4 Prevent a wireless PC from communicating with the wired network

5.10.6 WORP Intra Cell Blocking
The WORP Intra Cell Blocking feature restricts traffic between SUs which are registered to the same BSU. The two potential
reasons to isolate traffic among the SUs are:
To provide better security by isolating the traffic from one SU to another in a public space.
To block unwanted traffic between SUs to prevent this traffic from using bandwidth.
Parameter Description
Interface Allows to configure the type of interface on which filtering has to be applied. The Storm
Threshold filter can be used to filter the traffic on two types of interfaces: Ethernet or
Wireless. By default, Storm Threshold filtering is disabled on both Ethernet and Wireless
interfaces.
Multicast Threshold Allows to configure the threshold value of the multicast packets to be processed for the
Ethernet or Wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold
value for multicast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled. The default Multicast
Threshold value is 0 per second.
Broadcast Threshold Allows to configure the threshold value of the broadcast packets to be processed for the
Ethernet or Wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold
value for broadcast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled. The default Broadcast
Threshold value is 0 per second.
: Intra Cell Blocking is applicable only to a BSU in Bridge Mode only.
Advanced Configuration
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 181
The user can form groups of SUs at the BSU which define the filtering criteria. All data to/from SUs belonging to the same
group are bridged. If an SU does not belong to any group, the BSU discards the data.
The user can also configure a Security Gateway to block traffic between SUs connected to different BSUs. All packets destined
for SUs not connected to the same BSU are forwarded to the Security Gateway MAC address (configured under Security
Gateway).
The following rules apply to Intra Cell Blocking Groups:
an SU can be assigned to more than one group.
an SU that has not been assigned to any group cannot communicate to any other SU connected to the same or
different BSU.
5.10.6.0.1 Example of Intra-Cell Blocking Groups
Assume that four Intra Cell Blocking Groups have been configured on a BSU. SUs 1 through 10 are registered to the BSU.
In this example, SU1 belongs to two groups, Group 1 and Group 3. Therefore, packets from SU1 destined to SU4, SU5, SU6
and SU7 are not blocked. However, SU9 belongs to group 4 only and packets from SU9 are blocked unless sent to SU8 or SU
10.

5.12 IGMP Snooping
Proxim’s Tsunami® devices support Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping feature. With IGMP Snooping
enabled on the device, multicast traffic is only forwarded to ports that are members of the specific multicast group. By
forwarding the traffic only to the destined ports, reduces unnecessary load on devices to process packets.
Explained below is the IGMP Snooping process with the help of a diagram:
Figure 5-113 IGMP Snooping Process
The router forwards the IP multicast data to the BSU/End Point A.
Lets say, with IGMP Snooping not enabled on the BSU/End Point A, the multicast data is transmitted over the wireless medium
irrespective of whether the multicast group address is a member of the multicast group table maintained in each BSU/End
Point A. With IGMP Snooping enabled, the BSU/End Point A transmits the data only when the multicast group address is a
member of the multicast group table, else drops the packet. The SU/End Point B will receive the multicast data.
: IGMP Snooping is applicable only in Bridge Mode.
Advanced Configuration
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 191
Similarly, with IGMP Snooping not enabled on the SU/End Point B, the multicast data is transmitted irrespective of whether
the multicast group address is a member of the multicast group table maintained in each SU/End Point B. With IGMP
Snooping enabled, the SU/End Point B transmits the data to the host only when the multicast group address is a member of
the multicast group table, else drops the packet.
IGMP Snooping is of 2 kinds:
Active: Active IGMP Snooping listens to IGMP traffic and filters IGMP packets to reduce load on the multicast router.
Passive: Passive IGMP Snooping simply listens to IGMP traffic and does not filter or interfere with IGMP.
:
Tsunami® devices supports only passive IGMP Snooping.
IGMP versions v1,v2 and v3 are supported.
The device can add a maximum of 64 Multicast groups in the Snooping table.
To configure IGMP Snooping parameters, navigate to ADVANCED CONFIGURATION > IGMP Snooping. The following
IGMP Snooping screen appears:

6.2.1 TFTP Server
A Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server lets you transfer files across a network. By using TFTP, you can retrieve files from
the device for backup or copying, and you can upgrade the firmware or the configuration files onto the device. You can
download the SolarWinds TFTP server application from . You can also download the latest TFTP
software from SolarWinds Web site at .
While using TFTP server, ensure the following:
The upload or download directory is correctly set (the default directory is C:\TFTP-Root).
The required firmware file is present in the directory.
The TFTP server is running during file upload and download. You can check the connectivity between the device and
the TFTP server by pinging the device from the Personal Computer that hosts the TFTP server. The ping program
should show replies from the device.
The TFTP server should be configured to transmit and receive files (on the Security tab under File > Configure), with
no automatic shutdown or time-out (on the Auto-Close tab).
: The instructions listed above are based on the assumption that you are using the SolarWinds TFTP server; otherwise
the configuration may vary.
6.2.2 Text Based Configuration (TBC) File Management
Text Based Configuration (TBC) file is a simple text file that holds device template configurations. The device supports the TBC
file in XML format which can be edited in any XML or text editors.
You can generate the TBC file from the CLI Session and manually edit the configurations and then load the edited TBC file to
the device so that the edited configurations are applied onto the device. It differs mainly from the binary configuration file in
terms of manual edition of configurations. The generated TBC file is a template which has only the default and modified
configurations on the live CLI session.
6.2.2.1 Generating TBC File
The TBC file is generated through CLI by executing generate command.
While generating the TBC file from CLI, there is an option to generate it with or without all Management and Security
Passwords. The management passwords include CLI/WEB/SNMP passwords. The security passwords include
Network-Secret/Encryption-Key(s)/RADIUS-Shared-Secret. If included, these passwords become a part of the generated TBC
file and are in a readable form. If excluded, all these passwords are not part of the generated TBC file.
The commands used for the generation of TBC file are:
The generated TBC file contains,
Default configurations
Any user-added or edited configurations on current live CLI session
The generated Text Based Template Configuration file appears as shown below:
Management
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 197
Figure 6-4 TBC File in xml Format
6.2.2.2 Editing the TBC File
The TBC file can easily be opened and edited in any standard Text-Editors like Wordpad, MS-Word, Notepad++, Standard
XML Editors. Proxim recommends XML Notepad 7 editor for editing the TBC file.
You can modify any value between the double quotes(““) in the TBC file. It is recommended not to change the text
outside the double quotes (“”) or XML tags in the TBC file.
Remove unchanged configurations from the TBC file before loading onto the device.
Management
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 198
6.2.2.3 Loading the TBC file
The TBC file can be loaded onto the device by using either SNMP, Web Interface or CLI. You can either use TFTP or HTTP to
load the TBC file.
By using Web Interface, you can load the TBC file by navigating to MANAGEMENT > File Management > Upgrade
Configuration. To load the TBC file, it should be generated or downloaded onto the device. While loading the TBC file onto
the device, any file name is accepted. Once loaded, the TBC file name is renamed to PXM-TBC.xml.
If the TBC file does not contain correct XML syntax, the file will be discarded with DOM error and no configurations will be
loaded. All duplicate values entered are considered as errors while loading and syslogs will be generated accordingly.
Therefore, it is recommended to delete all unchanged parameters from the TBC file during its edition. Commit is required to
retain the configurations across reboots after loading the TBC file.
: Both Commit and Reboot are required to accept the modifications done in the TBC File. Only reboot is required to
reject the modifications.
Loading the TBC file is allowed only once in an active device session (that is, if TBC file is loaded, reboot is required to apply all
configurations or to load another TBC file). All configurations in the TBC file are loaded to the device irrespective of their
default or modified or added configurations. Loading the TBC file takes approximately 10-20 seconds depending on the
number of configurations added.
:
Remove any unmodified parameters from the TBC file, before loading it.
If you get any timeout errors while loading TBC file from SNMP interface, increase the time-out value to more than
30 seconds in the MIB Browser.

The SNTP Client when enabled on the device(s), sends an NTP (Network Time Protocol) request to the configured time servers.
Upon receiving the NTP response, it decodes the response and sets the received date and time on the device after adjusting
the time zone and day light saving.
In case, the time servers are not available, then users also have the option to manually set the date and time on the device.
To synchronize device’s time with time servers or manually set the time, navigate to MANAGEMENT > SNTP. The SNTP

– Configure the low temperature threshold ranging from -40ºC to 60ºC. By default, it is set to -40ºC.
– When the current internal temperature of the device reaches or exceeds this threshold range, then a trap and event
message is generated for every one hour (as long as it stays in the same state). If the temperature of the device
further changes, then the device will immediately generates another trap and an event message.
– For example, lets say the configured threshold range is -30(low) to 40 (high). If the device temperature reaches 50
then a trap and event message is generated for every one hour till it remains at 50. So, when the temperature
increases to 51 then it will immediately generate another trap and an event message.

7.11.3 sFlow®
Proxim’s point-to-multipoint and point-to-point devices support sFlow® technology, developed by InMon Corporation. The
sFlow® technology provides the ability to measure network traffic on all interfaces simultaneously by collecting, storing, and
analyzing traffic data.
Depicted below is the sFlow architecture that consists of a sFlow Agent and a sFlow Receiver.
Monitor
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 257
Figure 7-41 sFlow Architecture - An Example with a BSU and SUs
The sFlow Agent, which is running on devices, captures traffic information received on all the Ethernet interfaces, and sends
sampled packets to the sFlow Receiver for analysis.
The sampling mechanism used to sample data are as follows:
Packet Flow Sampling: In this sampling, the data packets received on the Ethernet interface of the device are
sampled based on a counter. With each packet received, the counter is decremented. When the counter reaches zero,
the packet is packaged and sent to the sFlow Receiver for analysis. These packets are referred to as Packet Flow
Samples.
Counter Polling Sampling: In this sampling, the sFlow Agent sends counters periodically to the sFlow Receiver based
on the set polling interval. If polling interval is set to 5 seconds then the sFlow Agent sends counters to sFlow Receiver
every 5 seconds. These packets are referred to as Counter Polling Samples.
The Packet Flow Samples and Counter Polling Samples are collectively sent to the sFlow Receiver as sFlow Datagrams. It is
possible to enable either or both types of sampling.
sFlow Sampling effects the system performance and hence care must be taken in configuring the sFlow parameters.
To configure sFlow, navigate to MONITOR > Tools > sFlow. The following sFlow® screen appears:
Monitor

This screen displays the following information about the sFlow Agent:
Version: The version displayed is 1.3;Proxim Wireless Corp.; v6.4. The version comprises the following information:
1. sFlow MIB Version: Indicates the agent’s MIB version. The MIB specifies how the agent extracts and bundles
sampled data, and the sFlow receiver must support the agent’s MIB. The sFlow MIB version is 1.3. so the sFlow
Receiver’s version must also be at least 1.3.
2. Organization: Specifies the organization implementing sFlow Agent functionality on the device, that is, Proxim
Wireless Corp.
3. Revision: Specifies the sFlow Agent version, that is, v6.4.
Address Type: Specifies the protocol version for IP addresses.
Agent Address: Specifies the sFlow Agent’s IP address.
7.11.3.1 sFlow Receiver Configuration

2. From the Receiver Index drop-down box, select the receiver index number associated with the sFlow Receiver to
which the sFlow Agent should send the sFlow Datagrams.
: If device has two Ethernet interfaces, then configure different Receiver indexes for each of the interface.
3. Type a value in the Packet Sampling Rate box. This value determines the number of packets the sFlow Agent
samples from the total number of packets passing through the Ethernet interface of the device.
4. Type a value in the Maximum Header Size box, to set the amount of data (in bytes) to be included in the sFlow
datagram. The sFlow Agent samples the specified number of bytes. For example, if you set the Maximum Header Size
to 100, the sFlow Agent places the first 100 bytes of every sampled frame in the datagram. The value should match
the size of the frame and packet header so that the entire header is forwarded. The default size is 128 bytes. The
header size can range from 20 to 256 bytes.
5. Next, click Apply to start packet flow sampling. Once it starts, the Time Out parameter (see
) keeps decrementing till it reaches a zero value. On reaching zero, the corresponding Receiver and
Sampling values are set to default values.
:
Enabling sFlow packet sampling effects the system performance, and hence care must be taken when choosing the
right value for Packet Sampling Rate and Maximum Header Size.
Receiver Index for packet Sampling table and Counter Polling table should be same for each Ethernet interface.

2. From the Receiver Index drop-down box, choose the receiver index number associated with the sFlow Receiver to
which the sFlow Agent sends the counters.
: If Packet Flow Sampling is already configured and running, then you should configure the Receiver index same
as configured in the Packet Flow Sampling for each Ethernet interface.
3. Set the polling interval by typing a value in the Interval box. Lets say, the polling interval is set to 30 seconds. So for
every 30 seconds, the counters are collected and send to the sFlow Receiver. The valid range for polling interval is 0 to
231 - 1 seconds.
4. Next, click Apply to start Counter Polling Sampling. Once it starts, the Time Out parameter (see
) keeps decrementing till it reaches a zero value. On reaching zero, the corresponding Receiver and
Counter Polling values are set to default values.
Enabling sFlow counter sampling effects the system performance, and hence care must be taken when choosing the
right value sampling interval.
Receiver Index for packet Sampling table and Counter Polling table should be same for each Ethernet interface.
If a sampling starts and there is already another sampling running then we consider the time out value of the
current/already running sampling.

:
Spectrum Analyzer scan cannot be performed when is enabled.
The total duration of scan depends on the number of channels available, channel scan time and scan iterations.
To reduce scan duration, configure the appropriate frequency filter lower and upper edges.
While scanning, Spectrum Analyzer does not consider channel offset.
The frequencies are scanned by 5MHz slice starting from the lower edge of the frequency filter, and displays the
results captured at that particular instance.
Spectrum Analyzer detects only 802.11 modulated signals.

When working in a high interference network, ensure to run the spectrum analyzer with multiple iterations
(increase the Scan Time) to get accurate results.

:
A minor variation in Spectrum Analyzer results can be expected due to the following reasons:
Satellite Density Configuration
A variation in the radio properties between various device models.
Figure 7-46 An Example - Scanned Results
:
• When the Spectrum Analyzer starts, the wireless link, if established, is terminated and re-established
after the scan is completed.
• As the wireless link is down during spectrum analysis, the remote device cannot be accessed. Hence, if
Spectrum Analyzer is started on a remote device, the results will not be available until spectrum scan is
completed and wireless link gets re-established.

Graph Results Interpretation
Consider a network with a device operating on channel 122 with 20 MHz channel bandwidth. In the same vicinity, when we
run the Spectrum Analyzer on a Tsunami radio it will display the results as shown in . From the results, we see
interfering signals on channels 115 to 129. It also shows strong interfering signal on channels 120 to124 indicating the
presence of a device operating on channel 122, and moderate interfering signals on channels 115-119 and 125-129 (which
are side band signals from the same interference source).
We recommend to avoid using these channels while installing Tsunami products, otherwise radio will report huge PHY and
CRC errors. However, to make these channels usable and to ignore the low interference signals, we recommend configuring
on the devices.
By default, for each channel, the graph represents the following statistics:
Please note that the Current Iteration parameter helps to learn the current scan iteration. For example, if Scan Iteration is
configured as 2, and currently only one scan cycle is complete then Current Iteration parameter displays 1.
To view the statistics of a particular channel, point the cursor to that channel on the graph. The statistics is displayed as shown
below:

7.11.6 Radio Link Test Tool
In general, whenever the network has some performance issue, it is required to identify whether the issue is due to the
wireless link or due to other network parameters. The Radio Link Test (RLT) tool helps to measure and diagnose any
performance issues in the wireless link. At MAC level, this tool internally generates the traffic between the two radios,
monitors the traffic, and generates a test report.The test report will help in analyzing the wireless link performance and other
related issues such as interference, lower throughput, and wireless errors. Especially for the static link establishment, this is
very helpful to check the link between the two radios when installing for the first time or if any performance issues are
noticed after the installation. If the link between the radios is of expected quality, then there is no issue with the wireless link.
In case, if there is any issue due to wireless parameters, the link may need some tuning in configuration such as channel, Data
Rate, Tx power or distance between radios. In spite of all the testing and tuning, if the performance still fails to improve, then
it may be due to installation related issues such as antenna alignment or the physical path. In the worst case, it may be a
hardware related issue.
This is not a replacement for other wireless performance measuring tools and should be used in conjunction with
other tools like Iperf or any other commercial tools.
It is recommended to use this tool with caution on live networks as it will be generating internal traffic which may
impact the network performance.
Radio Link test is an experimental feature and will be improved in future releases.
It is applicable only to 82x devices.
This tool can be accessed through web interface, console commands, and CLI.
Both ends of a link cannot simultaneously run this test.

Try a different port on the same PoE Injector hub (remember to move the input port
accordingly) – if it works then there is a problem in the previous RJ45 port or a bad
RJ45 port connection.
Try to connect the device to a different PoE Injector hub.
Try using a different Ethernet cable – if it works, there is probably a fault in the cable
or its connection.
Check the power plug and hub.
If the Ethernet link goes down, check the cable, cable type, switch and hub.
There is No Data Link Verify that the indicator on the device port is “ON.”
Verify that the Ethernet cable from PoE Injector hub to the Ethernet port of the
device is properly connected.

The length of the cable from the Ethernet port of the device to the PoE should be
less than 100 meters (approximately 325 feet).
Try to connect a different device to the same port on the PoE Injector hub – if it
works and a link is established then there is probably a fault in the data link of the
device.
Try to re-connect the cable to a different output port (remember to move the input
port accordingly) – if it works then there is a fault probably in the output or input
port of the PoE Injector hub or a bad RJ45 connection.
Overload Indications Connect the device to a PoE Injector.
Ensure that there is no short over on any of the connected cables.

8.3 Surge or Lightning Issues (For Connectorized devices)
8.4 Setup and Configuration Issues
Problem Solution
Surge or Lighting
Problem
In case of any lightning or surge occurrence, check for the conditions specified below:
Check the RF signals by referring to RSSI statistics and if the signal strength has been
lowered considerably, replace the Surge Arrestor.
Unscrew the N-Type connector at the top and visually inspect the Surge Arrestor for
electrical burns. If any, replace it.
Problem Solution
Device Reboots
Continuously
One of the reason for the device to reboot continuously is that the radio card is not
properly placed in the mini-PCI slot. When you power on the device and you do not see
the “WIRELESS NETWORK1 PASSED” in the POST message in the Serial Console,
please contact Proxim’s support site at .
Lost Telnet or SNMP
Password
Perform procedure. This procedure resets system and network
parameters, but does not affect the image of the device. The default HTTP, Telnet, and
SNMP username is admin and password is public.
Device Responds
Slowly
If the device takes a long time to respond, it could mean that:
No DHCP server is available.
The IP address of the device is already in use. Verify that the IP address is assigned
only to the device you are using. Do this by switching off the device and then
pinging the IP address. If there is a response to the ping, another device in the
network is using the same IP address. If the device uses a static IP address, switching
to DHCP mode could solve this problem.
The network traffic is more.
Incorrect Device IP
Address
The default IP address assignment mode is Static and the default IP address of the
device is 169.254.128.132.
If the IP address assignment mode is set to Dynamic, then the DHCP Server will
assign an IP address automatically to the device. If the DHCP server is not available
on your network, then the fall back IP address (169.254.128.132) of the device is
used.
Use ScanTool, to find the current IP address of the device. Once you have the current
IP address, use Web Interface or CLI Interface to change the device IP settings, if
necessary.
If you are using static IP address assignment, and cannot access the device over
Ethernet, refer to .
Perform procedure. This will reset the device to static mode.

Problem Solution
RADIUS
Authentication Server
Services unavailable
If RADIUS Authentication is enabled on the device, then make sure that your network’s
RADIUS servers are operational. Otherwise, clients will not be able to log on to the device.
There are several reasons for the authentication server‘s services to be unavailable. To
make it available,
Make sure you have the proper RADIUS authentication server information setup
configured on the device. Check the RADIUS Authentication Server’s Shared Secret
and Destination Port number (default is 1812; for RADIUS Accounting, the default is
1813).
Make sure the RADIUS authentication server RAS setup matches the device.
TFTP Server If a TFTP server is not configured and running, you will not be able to download and
upload images and configuration files to or from the device. Remember that the TFTP
server need not be local, as long as you have a valid TFTP IP address. Note that you do not
need a TFTP server running unless you want to transfer files to or from the device.
After the TFTP server is installed:
Check to see that TFTP is configured to point to the directory containing the
device Image.
Make sure you have the proper TFTP server IP Address, the proper device image
file name, and that the TFTP server is connected.
Make sure the TFTP server is configured to both Transmit and Receive files (on
the TFTP server’s Security tab), with no automatic shutdown or time-out (on
the Auto Close tab).

With multiple link
profiles, the wireless
network performance
is getting affected.
The overall performance of the wireless network gets affected when using multiple link
profiles and atleast one of the subscriber is operating with a lower data rate.
For example, consider a wireless network with a BSU and 5 SU profiles. Each SU is
transmitting data at a data rate as tabulated below. As SU1 is operating at a lower data
rate (6.5 Mbps), the entire performance of the network gets affected.
In order to optimize the network performance, apply QoS.
Given below is an example on how the network performance can be improved by applying
QoS. QoS is applied for SU1 with the following configuration:
PIR based on the ToS value 96
SFC with MIR/CIR= 1Mbps; Priority = 3; Latency/Jitter=10ms
Subscribers SU2...SU5 use the default QoS configuration.
: Given above is just an example and values might vary from case-to-case.
Reason(s) Observation

8.7 Wired (Ethernet) Interface Validation
Interference issues
due to wider beam
width of the antenna
MP-825-CPE-50, MP-825-SUR-50+, QB-825-EPR/LNK-50, and
QB-825-EPR/LNK-50+ uses a wider beam width antenna (up to 38 o) with a
gain of 15dBi. Due to its wider beam width, it may pick up more interfering
signals and may report large number of errors compared to other Tsunami
products. Wireless interference may also lead to:
– SNR value fluctuations between the Antenna (A1/A2) ports
– DDRS operation at lower data rates
– Higher number of PHY errors which may result in false RADAR detection in
DFS bands
To overcome these issues, use a spectrum analyzer and switch to a noise-free
channel.
Problem Solution
Wired (Ethernet)
Interface Validation
Run iperf commands
Use iperf commands with –w option as 202k. The throughput is expected to be
equal in both directions and should be comparable from laptop to laptop or desktop
to desktop performance
If the above throughput value is not in the expected range,
Check speed and duplex settings between the device and Personal Computer or
switch or router connected
Make sure the connection established is of same speed and full duplex is as expected
(10 or 100 or 1000)
With auto negotiation, if you notice this issue, then try manually setting the speed
and duplex
Update the Ethernet driver in the Personal Computer to the latest one

8.8 Wireless Interface Validation
Problem Solution
Wireless Interface
Validation
Run iperf commands (You can run Embedded iperf commands only through Telnet.)
iperf –s –w 202k (command for iperf server)
Iperf –c ipaddress –w 202k –t time Period –I <intermediateResultInterval> –P <4 or
6> (command to run iperf client)
– Ipaddress -> of the SU/End Point B or BSU/End Point A device where the iperf
server is running
– P -> No of pairs (Streams)
Use –d option to run bidirectional throughput
Use –r option to run unidirectional throughput one after another without changing
the server and SU ends
If the expected throughput is not achieved, then check the following:
Antenna Alignment
– Note whether the antenna ports are balanced – SNR/RSSI provided for Local
and Remote in the BSU/SU Link Statistics page or by using “aad” command
– Signal difference of <=5 dBm is considered as balanced and recommended
– If the chains are not balanced, then look at the alignment and connectors of
RF cables, used between antenna and device
– If in RMA (Returned from Customer), check the RF cable to radio port
connectivity
– Avoid nearby metal surfaces, if you are using Omni antenna
Data Streams
– Select “Single” stream instead of “Dual” stream mode
– DDRS - with single stream data rate or with Auto mode
Dual stream data rates can be used only when the signal in both antenna ports is
balanced.
Antenna Port Selection
– For devices with 3x3 MIMO radio, make sure you are either enabling all
antenna ports for 3x3 MIMO or using A1 and A3 antenna ports for 2x2
MIMO mode
– For devices with 2x2 MIMO radio, use A1 and A2 antenna ports
– For using single stream, it is mandatory to select antenna port A1
– Enabling all antenna port will not cause any issue even if it is not in use.
Bad Channel
– Check for CRC errors, PHY errors, WORP Retries and WORP Failures in
Monitor Interface Statistics page. If this count increments steadily (Refreshing
the web page is required) then
Either change the channel and check for a better channel
Use Wi-Spy or similar tool and check the environment for better channel

8.9 Recovery Procedures
Recovery Procedure is used to restore the device to its factory default operating state. Depending on the device state, the
recovery procedures can be classified under two modes:
1. Operational Mode: Device is up and in running state.
2. Bootloader Mode: Device operating image is deleted.
Problem Solution
Wireless Interface
Validation
Data Rate Issues
– Ensure same data rates are selected if you are using fixed data rate between
BSU/SU and End Point A/End Point B to have predictable throughput and link
– Alternatively, use DDRS with Auto mode enabled
Performance and Stability Issues
– Check the distance between two co-locating devices. The distance between
two co-locating devices should be minimum 3 meters, in order to achieve
good throughput and maintain link stability. The operating adjacent channel
should maintain 5MHz spacing if managed by a single administrator.
– When DDRS is disabled, check the Minimum Required SNR for the current
data rate by navigating to MONITOR --> WORP Statistics --> Interface 1
--> Link Statistics Page --> Click here for Local SNR-Table. If the current
SNR is not meeting the minimum required SNR criteria for the current data
rate, then accordingly reduce the data rate.
– If SNR is more than the maximum optimal SNR limit (MONITOR --> WORP
Statistics --> Interface 1 --> Link Statistics Page --> Click here for Local
SNR-Table) then it causes radio receiver saturation thus impacting the
performance of the link. To overcome this situation, set the TPC appropriately
or enable ATPC to adjust the signal level automatically. Also, enabling DDRS
can help in choosing right data rate automatically.
– To measure and diagnose any performance issues in the wireless link, use the
Radio Link Test Tool. To use this tool, navigate to MONITOR --> WORP
Statistics --> Interface 1 --> Link Statistics Page --> Details -->Click

injector (use a pin or the end of a paper clip) for 15 seconds. By doing so,
the operating image will get deleted.
Use a 4-pair (Gigabit) cross over Ethernet cable between the PoE and the
device. By doing so, the reload functionality gets activated and forcibly
deletes the operating image.
If you are having serial access to the device during POST, press SHIFT+u to
enter into forced user mode of the bootloader. From the Bootloader
prompt, enter the command firmware_delete.
After deleting the operating image, refer and
sections to load the firmware onto the device.

for reasons such as user has
forgotten the web interface
login password,
Management VLAN Id is
changed, and wrong VLAN
configuration.
And, you do not have a
reload capable PoE but Serial
access is possible
If you are having serial access to the device during POST, press SHIFT+u to enter
into forced user mode of the bootloader. From the Bootloader prompt, enter the
command config_delete.
Next, issue the command reboot.
The device now reboots and comes with: IP Address: 169.254.128.132;

: A new image cannot be downloaded using Bootloader CLI onto MP-825-CPE-50, MP-8160-CPE-A100 and
QB-825-EPR-50 as it does not provide a serial interface.
8.9.3.1 Using the ScanTool
To download the firmware image to the device, you will need an Ethernet connection to the computer on which the TFTP
server resides and to a computer that is running ScanTool (this is either two separate computers connected to the same
network or a single computer running both programs).
ScanTool automatically detects the device that does not have a valid software image. The TFTP Server and Image File Name
parameters are enabled in the ScanTool’s screen so that you can download a new image to the device. (These fields
are disabled, if ScanTool detects a software image on the device). See .
Preparing to Download the Device Image
Before starting the download process, you need to know the device IP Address, Subnet Mask, the TFTP Server IP Address, and
the Image file name. Make sure the TFTP server is running and properly configured to point to the folder containing the
image to be downloaded.
Download Procedure
Follow these steps to download a software image to the device by using ScanTool:
1. Download the latest software from , and copy it to the default directory of the TFTP server.
2. Launch Proxim’s ScanTool.
3. Highlight the entry for the device that you want to update and click Change.
4. Set IP Address Type to Static.
: You need to assign static IP information temporarily to the device since its DHCP client functionality is not
available when no image is installed on the device.
5. Now enter the IP address, Subnet mask, Default-gateway, Server - IP address and the image filename.
6. Click OK. The device will reboot and the download starts automatically.
7. Click OK when prompted to return to the Scan List screen after the device has been updated successfully.
8. Click Cancel to close the ScanTool.
After the download process is completed, the device will reboot and initialize. After successful initialization, the device is
ready to be configured.
8.9.3.2 Using the Bootloader CLI
To download the new device image, you will need an Ethernet connection to the computer on which the TFTP server resides.
This can be any computer on the LAN or connected to the device with an Ethernet cable.
You must also connect the device to a computer with a standard serial cable and use a terminal client. From the terminal,
enter the CLI commands to set the IP address of the device and to download the device image.
Preparing to Download the device image
Before starting, you need to know the device IP Address, Subnet Mask, the TFTP Server IP Address, and the device image file
name. Make sure the TFTP server is running and configured to point to the default directory containing the image to be
downloaded.
Troubleshooting
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 287
Download Procedure
1. Download the latest software from , and copy it to the default directory of the TFTP server.
2. Connect the device serial port to your computer’s serial port.
3. Open your terminal emulator program and set the following connection properties:
Com Port: COM1, COM2 and so on, depending on your computer
Baud Rate: 115200
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Flow Control: None
Parity: None
4. Under File > Properties > Settings > ASCII Setup, enable the Send line ends with line feeds option.
Terminal Emulator program sends a line return at the end of each line of code.
The terminal display shows Power On Self Tests (POST) activity. After approximately 30 seconds, a message indicates:
Starting ScanTool interface, press any key to enter CLI 5”. After this message appears, press any key. Now the
bootloader prompt appears as below:
5. Enter the following commands:
The device will reboot and then download the image file. When the download process is complete, configure the
device.
8.9.4 Setting IP Address using Serial Port
If the ScanTool fails to scan the device and users knows the login credentials then you can set the IP address for the device
using serial port.
8.9.4.1 Hardware and Software Requirements
Standard serial (RS-232) cable
ASCII Terminal software
Troubleshooting
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 288
8.9.4.2 Attach the Serial Port Cable
1. Connect one end of the serial cable to the device and the other end to a serial port on your computer.
2. Power on the computer and the device.
8.9.4.3 Initializing the IP Address using CLI
After connecting the cable to the serial port, you can use the CLI to communicate with the device. CLI supports the
most-generic terminal emulation programs. In addition, many web sites offer shareware or commercial terminal programs
that you can download. Once the IP address has been assigned, you can use the HTTP interface or the Telnet to complete the
configuration.
Follow these steps to assign an IP address to the device:
1. Open your terminal emulation program and set the following connection properties:
Com Port: COM1, COM2, and so on depending on your computer
Baud Rate: 115200
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Flow Control: None
Parity: None
The terminal display shows Power On Self Tests (POST) activity, and then displays the software version. It prompts you
to enter the CLI username and password. The commands to enter the username and password are as follows:
This process may take up to 90 seconds.
2. Enter the CLI Username and password. By default username is admin and password is public. The terminal displays a
welcome message and then the CLI Prompt. Enter ‘show ip’ as shown below:
3. Change the IP address and other network values using the following CLI commands (use your own IP address and
Subnet mask).
Troubleshooting
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 289
4. After the device reboots, verify the new IP address by reconnecting to the CLI. Alternatively, you can ping the device
from a network computer to confirm that the new IP address has taken effect.
When a proper IP address is set, use HTTP interface or Telnet to configure the rest of the operating parameters of the
device.
8.10 Spectrum Analyzer
The ultimate way to discover whether there is a source of interference is to use a Spectrum Analyzer. Usually, the antenna is
connected to the analyzer when measuring. By turning the antenna 360°, one can check the direction of the interference.
The analyzer will also display the frequencies and the level of signal is detected. Proxim recommends performing the test at
various locations to find the most ideal location for the equipment.
8.10.1 Avoiding Interference
When a source of interference is identified and when the level and frequencies are known, the next step is to avoid the
interference. Some of the following actions can be tried:
Change the channel to a frequency that has no or least interference.
Try changing the antenna polarization.
A small beam antenna looks only in one particular direction. Because of the higher gain of such an antenna, lowering
the output power or adding extra attenuation might be required to stay legal. This solution cannot help when the
source of interference is right behind the remote site.
Adjusting the antenna angle/height can help to reduce the interference.
Move the antennas to a different location on the premises. This causes the devices to look from a different angle, causing a
different pattern in the reception of the signals. Use obstructions such as buildings, when possible, to shield from the
interference.
8.10.2 Conclusion
A spectrum analyzer can be a great help to identify whether interference might be causing link problems on the device.
Before checking for interference, the link should be verified by testing in an isolated environment, to make sure that the
hardware works and your configurations are correct. The path analysis, cabling and antennas should be checked as well.
Base Announces should increase continuously.
Registration Requests and Authentication Requests should be divisible by 3. WORP is designed in a way that each
registration sequence starts with 3 identical requests. It is not a problem if, once in a while, one of those requests is
missing. Missing requests frequently is to be avoided.
Troubleshooting
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 290
Monitor / Per Station (Information per connected remote partner): Check that the received signal level (RSL) is the
same on both sides. This should be the case if output power is the same. Two different RSLs indicate a broken
transmitter or receiver. A significant difference between Local Noise and Remote Noise could indicate a source of
interference near the site with the highest noise. Normally, noise is about –80 dBm at 36 Mbps. This number can vary
from situation to situation, of course, also in a healthy environment.

LACP - Device Management
Tsunami Quickbridge® devices that are part of the LACP link cannot be managed through the switches, so it is
recommended to use the second Ethernet port for management.
:
When using second Ethernet port for management, ensure to disable Auto Shutdown for Ethernet2. See
).
STP/LACP Frames should be set to passthru. See
In this chapter, we have chosen the following two examples to explain the device management in the LACP link, by using the
second Ethernet port.
Example1
Figure D-1 Device Management with No VLAN
: The second Ethernet port is POE out; it should be connected via a passive POE (Without the AC power
plugged-in) or Gigabit 48 VDC Injector (GIG-POE-INJ-48VDC-T) (without 48 VDC power plugged-in).
Directly connecting the Ethernet port2 of the device to the PC Ethernet NIC may damage the PC NIC port
or Ethernet port on the switch.
LACP - Device Management
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 312
In this example, we have considered a network with two QuickBridge links each supporting LACP mode. In this setup, VLAN
is not configured on both LACP switches and devices.
The Ethernet1 of all the devices is connected to the LACP port and is used for data transfer.
To manage the devices, use a dedicated management Personal Computer per QuickBridge link. Use Ethernet2 port of the
device to connect the Personal Computer.
: In Fail Over Mode (if one of the link goes down), the remote device of a particular link cannot be managed.
Example2
Figure D-2 Device Management with VLAN
In this example, we have considered a network with two QuickBridge links each supporting LACP mode. In this setup,
Ethernet 1 of all the devices is connected to the LACP port, with no VLAN. The Ethernet 2 of all the devices is connected to
the tagged VLAN management port with Spanning Tree enabled.
To manage all the devices in the QuickBridge network, use one dedicated management Personal Computer connected to the
untagged VLAN port of the switch.
To manage the devices, configure same management VLAN Id on all the devices. The Ethernet 1 should be configured in
transparent VLAN mode to allow data transfer. The Ethernet2 can be configured either in transparent mode or trunk mode to
allow management traffic to the devices.
With Spanning Tree enabled on the LACP Switches, you will be able to manage all the QuickBridge devices, even if one of the
wireless link goes down.
For VLAN configuration, refer .
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 313
QinQ
The Subscribers and End Point devices support QinQ VLAN feature that enables service providers to use a single VLAN ID to
support multiple customer VLANs by encapsulating the 802.1Q VLAN tag within another 802.1Q frame. The benefits with
QinQ are as follows:
Increases the VLAN space in a provider network or enterprise backbone
Reduce the number of VLANs that a provider needs to support within the provider network for the same number of
customers
Enables customers to plan their own VLAN IDs, without running into conflicts with service provider VLAN IDs
Provides a simple Layer 2 VPN solution for small-sized MAN (Metropolitan Area Networks) or Intranet
Provides customer traffic isolation at Layer 2 within a service provider network
Consider a BSU and SU network, with QinQ (Double VLAN (Q in Q) Status) enabled on the SU.
Subscriber:
– Based on the Ethernet VLAN configuration on the Subscriber, the data packets are tagged as follows:
Access Mode: SU double tags the packet with Access VLAN ID as inner tag and Service VLAN ID as outer tag.
: When Double VLAN is enabled on the device, the Access VLAN ID should not be set to -1.
Trunk Mode: SU expects a tagged packet (inner tag) and tags the packet with Service VLAN ID as outer tag.
: When Double VLAN is enabled on the device, the Port VLAN ID should not be set to -1.
Transparent Mode: When QinQ is enabled, SU cannot be configured in the Transparent mode.
– In case of downlink traffic, SU always expects double tagged packet from the wireless side. If the outer VLAN tag
matches with Service VLAN ID then SU will untag the packet and forward to Ethernet. Based on Ethernet VLAN
configuration, the data packets are handled accordingly. When the outer VLAN tag does not match the Service
VLAN ID, the packet is dropped.
– Different outer VLAN IDs can be configured for different SUs, but those VLAN IDs should also be configured on the
BSU Ethernet.
Base Station:
– BSU always considers the first VLAN tag available in the packet; in case of double tagged packet it is the outer
VLAN ID.
Trunk Mode: The outer tag of the packet arriving at the Ethernet side should match with the VLAN ID
configured in the trunk table.
Transparent Mode: When configured in transparent mode, ensure the data packet is double tagged.
QinQ
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 314
Device Management
– From the BSU Ethernet side, the BSU/SU can be managed with a single VLAN tagged packet that matches the
Management VLAN ID.
– From the SU Ethernet side, only SU can be managed with a single VLAN tagged packet that matches the
Management VLAN ID; BSU cannot be managed from the SU Ethernet side.
:
In a QuickBridge link, Q-in-Q should be enabled either on an End Point A or an End Point B.
The user configurable TPID is only used in the Service Provider VLAN tag. The Inner or customer VLAN tag should
always have TPID as 0x8100.
An Example:
The following diagram is the pictorial representation of how traffic flows in a QinQ enabled network.
The Computer behind SU can be used to manage the SU.
To manage BSU, connect another Computer to BSU Ethernet port through a VLAN switch with PVID as 100.
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 315
BSU Redundancy
The BSU Redundancy feature can help in reducing the network outage in case of the Primary BSU failure. This feature
enables the SU to keep track of the Primary and the Secondary BSU availability through a proprietary protocol. This allows
the SU to switch between the Primary and the Secondary BSU depending on the link status. If both the Primary and the
Secondary BSU are not available, the SU attempts to find any other BSU within its network.
Configuration Guidelines
This feature is activated only on a SU. By default, it is disabled.
Use a non-empty string to enable this feature and an empty string to disable this feature.
When this feature is enabled, it is mandatory to configure both the Primary and the Secondary BSU name on the SU.
The Primary and the Secondary BSU names should be unique.
It is expected that the Primary and the Secondary BSUs are connected to the same L2 Broadcast domain and are
configured with the same “Network Name” as the SU.

Bootloader CLI and ScanTool
Bootloader CLI
The Bootloader CLI is a minimal subset of the normal CLI that is used to perform initial configuration of the device. The
Bootloader CLI is available when the device embedded software is not running.
This interface is only accessible through the serial interface, if:
The device does not contain a software image
An existing image is corrupted
An automatic (default) download of image over TFTP has failed
The Bootloader CLI provides the ability to configure the initial setup parameters; and depending on this configuration, a
software file is downloaded to the device during startup.
The Bootloader CLI supports the following commands:
: Restore the factory settings
: Print Online Help
: Reboot the device
: Set the parameters
: Show the parameters
The Bootloader CLI supports the following parameters (for viewing and modifying):
: IP Address
: System Name
: Gateway IP Address
: Server IP Address
: IP Address Type
: Net Mask
: Image file name (including the file extension)
If the Bootloader fails to load the firmware from flash, it tries to get the firmware from the network. While trying to get
firmware from the network, the device should be powered on using Ethernet 1 interface of the device. The default
configuration of the Bootloader parameters are as follows:
Parameter Value
ipaddr 169.254.128.132
netmask 255.255.255.0
gatewayip 169.254.128.132
systemname systemname
serverip 169.254.128.133
filename imagename
ipaddrtype dynamic
Bootloader CLI and ScanTool
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 319
To Load the Firmware from the Network
Use the command to view the parameters and their values, and use the command to set the parameter
value.
To Load the Firmware by using Dynamic IP Parameters
1. Set the ipaddrtype to dynamic
2. Run the BOOTP and TFTP Servers followed by device reboot
When the device reboots, the device gets the IP Address and Boot filename from the BOOTP server. You need not change any
of the default Bootloader parameters. After BOOTP succeeds, the device initiates a TFTP request with the filename it gets
from BOOTP.
To Load the Firmware by using Static IP Parameters
1. Use the command to set the IP parameters like ‘ipaddr’, ‘serverip’, ‘filename’ and also set the parameter
‘ipaddrtype’ to static.
2. Run the TFTP Server followed by device reboot.
When the device reboots, the TFTP request is initiated with the value taken from the parameter “filename”. This request is
sent to the IP address set as “serverip”. In this case, the TFTP Server should be reachable to the device.
ScanTool
If you want to access the device with ScanTool, then the host running the ScanTool should also be in the same network as the
device. The ScanTool broadcast requests are discarded by the routers if the device and the host running the ScanTool are in
different network. This means that the ScanTool cannot discover the device.
A device in Bootloader can be recognized by looking at the system description. If the system description does not contain any
build number in braces, conclude that the device is in Bootloader mode.
For example:
MP-8100-BSU-WD - Description of the device

Configuration File Cross-loading across the
Products
Proxim portfolio comprises different product lines and SKUs which differ in features and capabilities depending on the
hardware platform and the country setting or licensing used in them. This document describes the process to successfully
apply the configuration file on a device(s) and the software checks run while applying the configuration file on a device(s).
The user can apply a configuration file retrieved from a (Source) device to another compatible (Target) device. In order to
successfully apply the configuration file, the following criteria should be met.
1. The Hardware Inventory Component ID should be same for both the source device and the target device.
The configuration file can be applied only to the devices of the same family.
The configuration file retrieved from an 8xx series device cannot be applied to a device from 81xx series.
The configuration file of a MP-8160-BSU/MP-8160-SUA device cannot be applied to an 8100/8200 series device
and vice versa even though they share the same component ID.
The configuration file of a MP-8150-CPE device cannot be applied to a MP-8160-CPE device and vice versa even
though they share the same component ID.
2. The Regulatory Domain should be same in both the source device and the target device.The available Regulatory
Domains are listed below:
WD SKU is compatible only with the EU SKU. For example, if the configuration file retrieved from a WD SKU
device is loaded on a US or JP SKU target device then the upgrade fails.
If the above criteria are met, the configuration file can be successfully applied on the target device else an error message is
thrown. Once the configuration file is loaded and the device is rebooted, the software tries to apply the new configuration
file during the system boot-up process.

Configuration File Cross-loading across the Products
Tsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 329
Sometimes, a device from a particular product series may have different a license information compared to other devices of
the same series. Therefore, the start-up process validates the configuration file against the license file of the device before
applying the configuration file. The configuration file is valid, if the following conditions are met:
1. The input bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the input bandwidth limit in the
license file.
2. The output bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the output bandwidth limit in the
license file.
3. The sum of the input and output bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the
cumulative bandwidth limit in the license file.
4. The frequency band (2.4, 4.9, and 5 G Hz) in the configuration file should match with any one of the supported
frequency bands in the license file.
5. The radio operation mode (BSU/SU/AP) in the configuration file should match with any one of supported radio
operating modes in the license file.
6. The number of satellites in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the number of satellites in the license
file.
7. The product family (TMP/TQB/AP) value in the configuration file should match the product family value in the license
file.
8. Tx/Rx antenna chain mask in the configuration file should match the Tx/Rx antenna chain mask in the license file.
If any one of the above conditions is not met, the configuration file will be removed by the flash control module
during initialization and the device will boot-up with the last known good configuration. Before deleting the
configuration file, an eventlog is generated about the violation of the license parameters. In some cases, if the
last known good configuration does not exist internally, the device can reset the configuration to factory
defaults and boot up.

Lightning Protection
Lightning protection is used to maximize the reliability of the communications equipment by safely re-directing current from
a lightning strike or a power surge traveling along the Cat 5/Cat5e/Cat 6 Ethernet cabling to the ground using the shortest
path possible. Designing a proper grounding system prior to installing any communications equipment is critical to minimize
the possibility of equipment damage, void warranties, and cause serious injury.
The surge arrestor (sometimes referred to as a lightning protector) can protect your sensitive electronic equipment from
high-voltage surges caused by discharges and transients at the PoE.
Proxim Wireless offers superior lightning and surge protection for Tsunami® series products. Contact your reseller or
distributor for more information.
