Overview
AN-80i
User Manual
The AN-80i can operate as a VLAN-aware wireless switch, as a standard wireless bridge
(pass-through mode), or a combination of both. The following figure illustrates a simple
pass-though configuration. This configuration does not use VLAN tagging or filter the
Ethernet traffic.
Figure 20: PMP - Basic Pass-through Group Configuration
The following diagram illustrates a network implementation using two VLAN groups.
The packets tagged with VID=107 are classified as data traffic, while the packets tagged
with VID=108 are classified as voice traffic.

User Manual
Minimum Setup Requirements
A minimum set of parameters must be configured to enable data and management traffic
on any PMP deployment:
1. Create one or more Links to identify each subscriber in the sector, and set the wireless
link operating characteristics, including the maximum uplink and downlink
modulation.
2. Create one or more Groups (VLAN or pass-through) and set the operating
characteristics of this group.
3. Create one or more Connections (to Groups) for each subscriber, to assign membership
to at least one Group.
The following table provides a summary of the configuration shown in the pass-through
configuration diagram above. The actual Group ID and Link ID values are not available
until these items have been created during configuration of the system. This configuration
passes all data traffic as a standard PMP configuration.

Packet Classification
The AN-80i PMP deployment can be configured for use with VLAN tagged traffic,
untagged traffic, or a combination these two types. Ingress packets received on the
Ethernet port are classified into tagged or pass-through groups according to the criteria in
the following table. The Group settings apply to packets processed at the sector controller,
while Connection settings apply to packets processed at the subscriber.

Description
Packet has a VLAN tag and there is a Group/Connection configured for this VID.
Sector Controller: Packets are forwarded over the wireless link to all subscribers
with Connections to this VLAN Group.
Subscribers:
Packets are forwarded to the sector controller. The sector
controller forwards the packets to the local Ethernet port and
subscribers with Connections to this VLAN Group.
The packet does not have a VLAN tag, or no Group/Connection exists for this VID.
If a pass-through Group has not been defined, unclassified packets are discarded.
If a pass-through Group has been defined, classified packets are forwarded based
on the rules for tagged traffic. The packet VLAN information is not modified.

systems. For complete installation and operational procedures. refer to the AN-80i System
User Manual, the AN-80i Quick Install Guide, and the Installation Guidelines provided
on CD-ROM.
The VLAN tagging feature allows the user to configure and operate an AN-80i
deployment as a VLAN-aware wireless switch. A 'group' is created at the sector
controller for each VLAN to be transported, and 'connections' are added to enable data
flow with any subscriber station participating in that VLAN. If VLAN is not required, a
default group and set of connections must be setup to define the traffic characteristics.
Prior to completing this setup, no Ethernet data traffic can be transmitted over the
wireless interface.

adaptmod: Enable or disable the adaptive modulation function.
off - Disable
on - Enable
When enabled, the AN-80i will automatically change the modulation to the
highest setting that can sustain a packet error rate lower than 1x10e-6. If the
packet error rate exceeds 1x10e-6, the system automatically steps down
modulation/code rate (i.e., from 16 QAM 3/4 to 16 QAM 1/2 ) to maintain the
wireless link quality.
antgain: Enter value for antenna gain (dBi).
When DFS is enabled, it is important that the Antenna Gain setting matches the
true antenna gain. If the antenna gain is set higher incorrectly, the AN-80i is
less sensitive to detecting interference, and is not operating in compliance with
the UK/ETSI standard.
atpc: Enable or disable the ATPC function. Both AN-80i units monitor Rx signal
and automatically adjust the Tx level of the transmitting system to optimize
system performance. The ATPC feature must be enabled on both ends of the
link.
off - Disable
on - Enable
This mode can be changed only if allowed by the options key. If the options key
does not allow changes: 1) value is specified by the options key, 2) executing a
set command for this field will generate an error message.
autoscan: Enable or disable the Autoscan function.
off - Disable
on - Enable
When enabled, the PTP Subscriber (system mode) AN-80i automatically scans
available channels to locate the current operating frequency of the PTP Sector
Controller system. Executing a set command this field on a PTP Sector
Controller will generate an error message.
bsporten: Sector controller Ethernet port enable.

- [id number]

- 
buzzer: Enable or disable the audible alignment buzzer.
off - Disable
on - Enable
When enabled, the rate of the tone is proportional to the receive signal strength
(faster = stronger signal).
chwidth: Enter the channel bandwidth in MHz. Valid entries are 10, 20, and 40.

AN-80i
User Manual
Procedure to Reset AN-80i IP Address
The AN-80i features a method to gain access to the CLI command prompt for a unit
where the IP address, username, and/or password is unknown. This method requires local
access to the AN-80i PoE power adapter, the capability to power-cycle the AN-80i, a PC
with a telnet client, and an Ethernet cable.
Figure 36: CLI - Recovering Lost IP Address
Use the following steps to gain access to the CLI command prompt:
1. Power-off the AN-80i PoE power adapter. Remove the local network Ethernet cable
and connect your computer directly to the PoE power adapter 'INPUT' Ethernet port
(requires Cat 5e cross-over cable).
2. Open a command prompt window on the PC and enter the command:
telnet 192.168.25.2 
3. Power-on the AN-80i PoE power adapter for over 30 seconds.
4. Power-off the AN-80i PoE power adapter for 7 seconds.
5. Power-on the AN-80i PoE power adapter, wait 15 seconds, and then press the Enter
key on the PC (to start the Telnet session). The Telnet session must connect to the
AN-80i within 10 to 30 seconds from when the AN-80i starts the second time.
6. When prompted, login using 'admin' as the user name and 'admin' as password.
7. Use the following commands to save a new IP address:
ipaddr  
save config 
If required, use the 'user' command to enter new username and password information
or the 'save' command to reset all parameters to factory default settings.
8. Power-off the AN-80i, restore the network Connections, and restore power.

Testing and Saving System Parameters
The AN-80i is a highly configurable communications device. All configurable options
are saved in non-volatile RAM. The system configuration and snmp settings are saved
separately.
6.3.1
CLI Interface
Use the 'test' command to have the AN-80i load the edited settings. The AN-80i will
operate with these settings for a period of five minutes. During the test period, you may
click the Save button at any time to save this configuration permanently. Otherwise, after
five minutes, the AN-80i will reboot and load the previously saved settings.
Note: Factory defaults can only be restored using the CLI commands.

6.3.2
Web Interface
The Test button is located on the System Configuration page. Click this button to have
the AN-80i load the current settings displayed in the configuration screen. The AN-80i
will operate with these settings for a period of five minutes. During the test period you
may click the Save button at any time to save this configuration permanently (also
terminating the five minute timer). After five minutes, if the Save function button has not
been applied, the AN-80i will reboot and load the previously saved settings.

The following table lists some common troubleshooting tips for the web interface.
Table 31: Diag. - Web Interface Diagnostics
Symptom
General
Information
screen is not
displayed
Possible Problem
Incorrect IP
address and/or
Subnet Mask.
Problems with host
computer, or AN80i.
Host PC ARP table
is incorrectly
configured
Solution
Perform a ping test from the host computer command
line.
If the ping test is unsuccessful, then the problem is
with the IP address. Perform a long reset to apply the
default address (192.168.25.2) and Subnet Mask
(255.255.255.0)
If the ping is successful, reset the AN-80i, and/or reset
the host computer.
Run 'arp -d' whenever the AN-80i is swapped. Check
that the subnet mask for the host PC matches the
subnet mask of the AN-80i. Check that the host PC's
address is 192.168.25.n, where 'n' is not equal to 0,2,
or 255.
Attempt to login to the AN-80i using a Web browser. Microsoft Internet Explorer is
recommended. If the AN-80i does not respond by displaying the login dialog box, check
that the correct IP address is being used. The value 192.168.25.2 is the factory default
value and may have been changed during installation.
Test is to verify the IP address is reachable from the computer. Use the ping command to
test the Connection between the AN-80i and host computer.
>ping 192.168.25.2
If the ping test is successful, the host computer was able to send and receive packets
to/from the AN-80i. The problem may be with the Internet browser or related settings on
the host computer. Reboot the host computer to try to resolve the problem.
If the ping is unsuccessful, there may be problems using that IP address; the IP address
may be incorrect, or there may be a duplicate address. For correct operation the host
computer and the AN-80i must be on the same subnet. For example, if the AN-80i is
using the factory default settings, the host computer could be set for an IP of
192.168.25.3 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
If the correct IP address of the AN-80i cannot be determined, it is recommended to
perform the IP recovery procedure. See 6.2: Procedure to Reset AN-80i IP Address on
page 75.

Definition
The measure of antenna performance relative to a theoretical antenna called an
isotropic antenna.
Automatic Repeat Request. This is the protocol used over the air for error
correction.
Automatic Transmission Power Control. The sector controller-end system
automatically adjusts the RF transmit level of both systems to optimize
performance of the link (match a target RSSI value).
The angle of signal coverage provided by an antenna.
Broadband Fixed Wireless
Bits Per Second
A unit of measurement for the rate at which data is transmitted.
Binary Phase Shift Keying.
A communications path wide enough to permit a single RF transmission.
A ratio expressed in decibels.
A ratio, measured in decibels, of the effective gain of an antenna compared to
an isotropic antenna.
Decibels above a milliwatt
Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) can detect interference from other devices
using the same frequency (especially radar) and automatically take a preselected action such as disable transmission or relocate transmission to
alternative frequency.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A DHCP server automatically issues IP
addresses within a specified range to devices on a network.
An antenna that concentrates transmission power into one direction.
For the purposes of privacy, the transformation of data into an unreadable
format until reformatted with a decryption key.
A LAN architecture using a bus or star topology
Full Duplex. Refers to the transmission of data in two directions simultaneously
(i.e. a telephone)
Fixed Wireless Access
The ratio of the output amplitude of a signal to the input amplitude of a signal.
Typically expressed in decibels (dB).
A network point that acts as an entrance to another network.
Gigahertz. 1,000,000,000 Hz, or 1,000 MHz
