MeshTray Icon Figure 20. Active Ad-Hoc Peer-to-Peer Icon
MEA WMC6300 Pocket PC User’s Guide 15 Starting MeshTray MeshTray will automatically start whenever a WMC6300 is inserted into the Pocket PC device. If MeshTray has been stopped and needs to be restarted, double-click on the MeshTray icon on the desktop. Also, if MeshTray has been minimized, clicking on the MeshTray icon in the system tray restores the application to a property sheet interface as shown in Figure 21. MeshTray Status Tab When the utility is launched, MeshTray displays useful system information such as a description of the device, the MAC and IP address of the node, and the type of device (i.e., Subscriber Device). The Firmware version and build date are also displayed. When in infrastructure mode, the status tab also displays the associated IAP MAC address and the link quality to that IAP. . Figure 21. MeshTray Status Tab
MeshNetworks 16 MeshTray Configuration Tab The Configuration Tab has a drop down selection that allows the user to select it’s mode of operation; Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc Peer-to-Peer. Infrastructure mode allows the user to use equipment deployed by the network operator to access the Internet. Peer-to-Peer mode allows users to communicate among themselves without accessing a wired network. If Geo-Position has been enabled on the WMC6300, the Geo-Position option will be selectable and the user may configure the reporting interval as shown in Figure 22. Otherwise, the Geo-Position box will be grayed out as shown in Figure 25. Likewise, if Enhanced Geo has been enabled on the WMC6300, an additional checkbox will appear to allow the user to select that mode. Refer to the section on the Geo Position Tab for additional information. Figure 22. MeshTray Configuration Tab (1)
MEA WMC6300 Pocket PC User’s Guide 17 Priority The User Priority service can be provisioned on a per node basis for use with tiered service and emergency access systems. This priority feature is unique to the MEA network and only exists between endpoints within the MEA network or between a MEA network node and the ingress/egress node on the mea network. Nodes outside of the MEA Core LAN cannot request a particular priority for transmitted or received traffic. Any traffic into the mea network needing prioritization must be prioritized at the ingress access point or router. Any traffic out of the MEA network will lose its priority assignment at the egress. MEA wireless traffic will carry priorities attached to each packet. The MeshAPI can be used to tune the default priority of the local node. There is also an optional Emergency mode for use by special applications. The priority for use in emergency mode is separately provisioned and must be explicitly enabled per node by the network operator. Figure 23. Priority Setting Drop-Down Menu
MeshNetworks 18 Addressing Scheme for Unified Modes of Operation With MEARelease 3.0, the concept of modes has been replaced by a Unified Modes of operation addressing scheme. The concept of unified modes of operation centers on the current state of network communication: Associated State and Unassociated State. There are three addressing schemes which allow the IT manager increased flexibility in deployment. Figure 24. Network Addressing Scheme Drop-Down Menu
MEA WMC6300 Pocket PC User’s Guide 19 Network DHCP Scheme Operation under the Network DHCP scheme is similar to that of Release 2 in Infrastructure Mode. The primary difference is users are now allowed to temporarily wander outside of the network infrastructure without losing connectivity. Network DCHP requires that the user's host device be configured to request an address from a DHCP server and the inclusion of a DHCP server in the core network configuration to answer these requests. With Network DHCP selected, the network device will forward any DHCP requests to the core network once it becomes associated and establishes communications with the infrastructure. The server may be configured by the operator to hand out temporary or static leases. The user must associate and acquire an address from the network before establishing communications. Once a lease has been granted, the address may be dragged out of network coverage for the remainder of the lease or, if a static lease was granted, until the next power cycle. If the lease expires or the user cycles power while outside of network coverage, the user will again lose the ability to communicate. This scheme is best for a larger, closely managed network of subscribers who don't need to communicate or communicate only briefly outside of network coverage. Statically Provisioned Scheme Operation under the Statically Provisioned scheme is similar to that of Release 2 in Peer-to-Peer Mode. The primary difference is that addresses are configured by the network operator rather than hashed from the MAC address. This serves to eliminate the 10.x.x.x limitation on the network range. When operating under the Statically Provisioned scheme, the network device will accept DHCP requests from the user's host and internally generate responses to grant the host an IP address and assign any other provisioned options. This scheme requires that the host be configured to request an address from a DHCP server but does not require a DHCP server on the core network. It should be noted that a DHCP server can still exist on the network to hand out addresses to other nodes using the Network DHCP Scheme as long as the server's address range does not conflict with addresses assigned to devices using the Statically Provisioned or User Supplied Schemes. The granted IP addresses granted by the server and options are configurable per-device using MeshManager. The internally generated DHCP messages will assign the host a static lease to the provisioned address, which may be freely used to communicate while associated or unassociated. The operator must ensure that the provisioned addresses are routable and do not conflict with any other addresses in use. The operator is free to provision any option ordinarily provisioned by a DHCP server (subnet mask, DNS, etc.) through programming of the appropriate fields in each device using MeshManager. This scheme is ideal for a managed network of users who regularly need to communicate inside and outside of network coverage or for a network lacking a DHCP server. User Supplied Scheme Operating under the User Supplied scheme, the user's host device is configured to use a fixed
MeshNetworks 20 IP address and subnet mask. The user is responsible for configuring options that would otherwise be configured by a DHCP server. Furthermore, it is up to the user to ensure that the assigned address is routable on the core network (if core network access is needed) and that it does not conflict with other addresses in use. This is analogous to and carries the same caveats as plugging an Ethernet card into a LAN and manually assigning it an address. The user is free to communicate while associated or unassociated. This scheme is ideal for small, unmanaged networks lacking a DHCP server. All of these schemes may be assigned per device, either by the user or by the network manager. The network manager can also limit the user-selectable schemes or force a specific scheme. Devices in each of these schemes can interoperate and communicate with each other, so long as the assigned addresses do not conflict and are mutually routable. Figure 25. MeshTray Configuration Tab (2)
MEA WMC6300 Pocket PC User’s Guide 21 MeshTray Geo-Position Tab (Optional) If your WMC6300 has been licensed for Geo-Location, an optional tab will be displayed in MeshTray as shown in Figure 26.
