RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP AN-80i User Manual Chapter PMP Operation 4.1 Introduction This section describes only the additional parameters required for configuring PMP support, and an overview about defining and using VLAN and pass-through groups. The AN-80i PMP software provides the following main features: - IEEE 802.1Q standard compliance - VLAN Groups span subscribers - Multiple VLAN Connections per subscriber - Multiple TLS transport based on VLAN ID classification - QoS provisioning with individual CIR setting per connection - VLAN trunking with tag insert/delete/re-map - VLAN tagged management traffic Notices: 1. DFS is not supported for PMP operation. 2. PMP operation is supported for the 5.8 GHz radio, and the 5.4 GHz radio where DFS is not required by regional regulations. 4.2 PMP Menu The following menu items are available for configuring and monitoring the PMP functions. See Table 5: Web - Default System Users on page 30 for the factory default usernames and passwords. Figure 19: PMP - Main Menu 70-00072-01-04-DRAFT Proprietary Redline Communications © 2007 Page 38 of 91 May 7, 2007 RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP 4.3 Functional Description 4.3.1 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. Figure 21: PMP - VLAN Tagged Traffic Example 70-00072-01-04-DRAFT Proprietary Redline Communications © 2007 Page 39 of 91 May 7, 2007 RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP 4.3.2 AN-80i 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. Table 7: PMP - Basic Pass-Through Group Settings Group Configuration (Sector Controller) Group Name SC-1 Port Tagging Pass Through Group VID Connection Name NA SS-1 SS-2 Notes: 4.3.3 Connection Configuration (Subscriber) Port Link Group Tagging ID ID Pass [L-1] [SC-1] Through Pass [L-2] [SC-1] Through Connection VID NA NA 1. The Group ID, Conn ID, and Link ID values are assigned automatically and must be read from the screen after items are created. 2. The QoS settings must be determined using the PMP Configuration Tool. 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. Table 8: PMP - Packet Classification Type Tagged Traffic PassThrough Traffic 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. 70-00072-01-04-DRAFT Proprietary Redline Communications © 2007 Page 40 of 91 May 7, 2007 RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP 4.4 AN-80i User Manual PMP Screens This section describes the configuration screens used to setup a PMP deployment. 4.4.1 Configuration Screen Click Configure System in the menu to view and adjust configuration settings for general system identification, Ethernet, and the wireless interface (partial screen shown below).

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. 70-00072-01-04-DRAFT Proprietary Redline Communications © 2007 Page 75 of 91 May 7, 2007 RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP 6.3 AN-80i User Manual 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. Figure 37: Diag - Saving Parameters in NVRAM 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. 70-00072-01-04-DRAFT Proprietary Redline Communications © 2007 Page 76 of 91 May 7, 2007 RedCONNEX TM PTP & PMP AN-80i User Manual 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.
