It is important to note that this account can change all aspects of the management system; therefore the admin password should be changed immediately to avoid a security breach. The BTS-2558-B-4A/M has the capability to be configured as either a network bridge or router. The following (2) sections provide some background of the configuration options and capabilities of the system. 3.1.1 Network Role Each network mode is listed and described in Table 2 below. Network Mode Description Router IP packets are routed (Layer 3) between wired and wireless interfaces. Lower layer broadcast packets are dropped at each interface. Multicast packets can be configured to forward across. Bridged Configures the unit as a transparent Layer 2 Ethernet bridge. All packets (unicast, multicast, and broadcast) are forwarded between the wireless and wired interfaces (subject to ACL and firewall rules). Table 2 - Network Modes There is an option to disable specific interfaces. Please use this with extreme caution. Once disabled, no traffic will be accepted or passed from the interface (LAN/WAN). 3.1.2 Bridge Role As mentioned in the previous section, bridge mode configures the unit as a transparent Layer 2 Ethernet bridge. All packets (unicast, multicast, and broadcast) are forwarded between the wireless and wired interfaces (subject to ACL and firewall rules). The bridged mode management interface is either configured via static IP settings or via a DHCP server. Unless, reserved IP address lease tables are used, DHCP is not recommended, as the provisioned IP address is not guaranteed. The settings and descriptions are listed in Table 3 below. Network Settings (Static) Description IP Address IP address used for device management. 192.168.0.20 is the default IP loaded at the factory. Netmask Dotted decimal representation of 4 binary octets that determine

For example, 255.255.255.0 is the most common mask used. Gateway IP Represents the address to send non-local data to. The local network means any network that is configured on the device (i.e. bridge IP network). In bridge mode, this IP address must be in the same space as the bridge IP network. Table 3 - Network Settings (Static) In bridge network role, the gateway IP address also shows up in the static route table (covered in a later section). 3.1.2.1 Common Network Settings In addition to addressing, there are several network settings that are commonly configured in bridge network role. These include spanning tree protocol and IP aliasing. A list and description of each is in Table 4. Network Settings (Common) Description Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) IEEE 802.1d protocol that works on bridged interfaces to find the shortest path between to stations. Also, detects and blocks loops by preventing the same hardware/MAC address from being accepted from a port that it has transmitted the same address from. Table 4 - Network Settings (Common) 3.1.3 Router Role IP packets are routed (Layer 3) between wired and wireless interfaces. Lower layer broadcast packets are dropped at each interface. Below (Table 5) is a list of settings and descriptions that are specific to the wireless LAN (WLAN) interface when the device is configured in a router role. Network Settings Description IP Address IP address used for device management. It is accessible from the wireless LAN (WLAN) interface. Netmask Dotted decimal representation of 4 binary octets that determine which part of address is the network and that of the host (the mask). For example, 255.255.255.0 is the most common mask used.

In bridging mode, there should only be one gateway IP address to point to networks outside of the management IP network space. As a router, the gateway IP address points to the location that services the destination network. 3.1.5 Embedded CLI The command line interface is a structured (hierarchical XML configuration) customer user interface. It is equipped with features that are typically found on carrier-class systems. This includes help, command completion, and option range/bounds checking. Similarly, the interface is serviced by a secure sockets shell server and is fully integrated with the Linux authentication subsystem. Additionally, the CLI is equipped to support look up tables to allow the CLI to be customized to make commands easier to read- while maintaining the underlying software interface. Figure 7 shows some of the available root level commands. Figure 7 - Embedded CLI

Basic level connectivity utilities are included such as support for IPerf and ping. The user can initiate help by pressing the ‘TAB’ key or by typing a ‘?’ at any level of the command, including options. 3.1.5.1 Set The ‘set’ command (from the top level) is the primary configuration command. It can be used to configure system, network, and radio parameters. Changes to the configuration are automatically saved to the flash. This has the potential to cause certain parameters to be out of sync as they only take effect at boot time. These parameters have a warning message displayed, as the information is committed. Alternatively, a transaction-based configuration system is available in the software package. Figure 8 - Embedded CLI Set Command Options Concurrency to flash objects is handled through flash page locks. Most of the radio parameters require a reset after setting. This keeps the overall flash write rate very low. 3.1.5.2 Show Each of the configuration options that are available in the ‘set’ command is also available as ‘show’ commands as shown in the figure below.
