Lets the BSU and SU be used in a VLAN-aware network. Processes IEEE 802.1Q VLAN-tagged packets. Network resources behind the BSU and SU can be assigned to logical groups. Overview VLAN Modes Transparent Mode Transparent mode is available on both the SU and the BSU. This mode is equivalent to NO VLAN support and is the default mode. It is used when the devices behind the SU and BSU are both VLAN aware and unaware. The SU/BSU transfers both tagged and untagged frames received on the Ethernet or WORP interface. Both tagged and untagged management frames can access the device. Trunk Mode Trunk mode VLAN is available on both the SU and the BSU. It is used when all devices behind the SU and BSU are VLAN aware. The SU and BSU transfer only tagged frames received on the Ethernet or WORP interface. Both tagged and untagged management frames can access the device. Access Mode Access mode is available only on the SU. It is used when the devices behind the SU are VLAN unaware. Frames to and from the Ethernet interface behind the SU map into only one VLAN segment. Frames received on the Ethernet interface are tagged with the configured Access VLAN ID before forwarding them to the WORP interface. Both tagged and untagged management frames can access the device from the WORP interface. However, only untagged management frames can access the device from the Ethernet Interface. VLAN Forwarding The VLAN Trunk mode provides a means to configure a list of VLAN IDs in a Trunk VLAN Table. The SU and BSU only forward frames (between Ethernet and WORP interface) tagged with the VLAN IDs configured in the Trunk VLAN Table. Up to 256 VLAN IDs can be configured for the BSU and up to 16 VLAN IDs can be configured for the SU (depending upon the capabilities of your switching equipment). VLAN Relaying The VLAN Trunk mode for BSU operation provides an option to enable and disable a VLAN relaying flag; when enabled, the BSU shall relay frames between SUs on the same BSU having the same VLAN ID. Management VLAN The BSU and SU allow the configuration of a separate VLAN ID and priority for SNMP, ICMP, Telnet, and TFTP management frames for device access. The management VLAN ID and management VLAN priority may be applied in any mode. The management stations tag the management frames they send to the BSU or SU with the management VLAN ID configured in the device. The BSU and SU tag all the management frames from the device with the configured management VLAN and priority. 100 Configuration VLAN Parameters BSU and SU in Transparent Mode MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management When the BSU is in Transparent mode, all associated SUs must be in Transparent mode. How the BSU and SUs function in Transparent mode is described in the following table. BSU Function Transparent Mode BSU forwards both tagged and untagged SU Function Transparent Mode SU forwards both tagged and untagged frames received from the Ethernet interface or from any of the associated SUs. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, BSU allows only management frames tagged with the configured management VLAN ID to access it. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, BSU tags all management frames generated by the BSU with the configured management VLAN ID and priority. If the management VLAN ID is configured as -
1 (untagged), BSU allows only untagged management frames to access it. frames received from the Ethernet interface or from the BSU. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU allows only management frames tagged with the configured management VLAN ID to access it. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU tags all management frames generated by the SU with the configured management VLAN ID and priority. If the management VLAN ID is configured as -
1 (untagged), SU allows only untagged management frames to access them. BSU in Trunk Mode and SU in Trunk/Access Mode When the BSU is in Trunk mode, the associated SUs must be in either Trunk mode or Access mode. When an SU associates to a BSU that is in Trunk mode, it gets the VLAN mode from the BSU. How the BSU and SU function in Trunk mode, and the SU in Access mode, is described in the following table. 101 Configuration VLAN Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management BSU Function Trunk Mode SU Function Trunk Mode SU Function Access Mode Up to 256 VLAN IDs can be configured on a BSU. Up to 16 VLAN IDs can be configured on an SU. BSU discards all untagged SU discards all untagged frames frames received from the Ethernet interface or from any of the associated SUs
(unexpected). If a valid VLAN ID is configured, BSU forwards only VLAN-tagged frames received from the Ethernet interface or from any of the associated SUs that are tagged with the configured VLAN IDs; it discards all other tagged frames. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, BSU allows only management frames tagged with the configured management VLAN ID to access it. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, BSU tags all management frames generated by the BSU with the configured management VLAN ID and priority. If the management VLAN ID is configured as -1 (untagged), BSU allows only untagged management frames to access it. received from the Ethernet interface or from the BSU
(unexpected). If a valid VLAN ID is configured, SU forwards only VLAN-tagged frames received from the Ethernet interface or from the BSU that are tagged with the configured VLAN IDs; it discards all other tagged frames. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU allows only management frames tagged with the configured management VLAN ID to access it. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU tags all management frames generated by the SU with the configured management VLAN ID and priority. If the management VLAN ID is configured as -1 (untagged), SU allows only untagged management frames to access it. SU discards all tagged frames received from the Ethernet interface and all untagged frames received from the BSU (unexpected). SU tags all untagged frames received from the Ethernet interface with the configured Access VLAN ID and forwards them to the BSU. SU untags all tagged frames received from the BSU that are tagged with the configured Access VLAN ID and forwards them to the Ethernet interface; it discards all other tagged frames from the BSU. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU allows only management frames tagged with the configured management VLAN ID to access it from the BSU. If a valid management VLAN ID is configured, SU tags all management frames generated by the SU with the configured management VLAN ID and priority and forwards them to the BSU. If the management VLAN ID is configured as -1 (untagged), SU allows only untagged management frames to access it from the BSU. SU allows only untagged management frames to access it from the Ethernet interface, regardless of the value of the management VLAN ID. BSU VLAN Configuration The HTTP Interface to configure BSU VLAN parameters is shown in the following figure. 102 Configuration VLAN Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The following parameters are configurable:
BSU VLAN Mode: The BSU VLAN mode can be either Transparent or Trunk. By default, the BSU is in Transparent mode. Management VLAN ID: The Management VLAN ID is configurable in any mode. The management VLAN ID has a default value of untagged and may be configured with a value in the range of 1 to 4095. Management VLAN Priority: The Management VLAN priority values range from 0 to 7 and the default priority is 0
(zero). Relaying Flag: When this flag is enabled, the BSU relays frames between SUs on the same BSU. BSU VLAN Table: The BSU VLAN Table is configurable in both Transparent and Trunk mode, but applies only when the BSU is in Trunk mode. The VLAN ID values for the BSU VLAN Table range from 1 to 4095. The maximum number of VLAN IDs that can be configured in the BSU VLAN Table is 256. An SU in Trunk mode is assigned VLAN IDs from this table. Add BSU VLAN Table Entries To add entries to the BSU VLAN table, click the Add Table Entries button. Enter a VLAN ID and select a Status, then click Add to add your entry to the table. Edit or Delete BSU VLAN Table Entries To edit or delete entries in the BSU VLAN Table, click the Edit/Delete Table Entries button, make your changes, then click OK for your changes to take effect. 103 Configuration VLAN Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management Restricting Unit Management Management access to the unit can be easily secured by making management stations or hosts and the unit itself members of a common VLAN. Simply configure a non-zero management VLAN ID: management of the unit will be restricted to members of the same VLAN. CAUTION: If a non-zero management VLAN ID is configured, management access to the unit is restricted to hosts that are members of the same VLAN. Ensure your management platform or host is a member of the same VLAN before attempting to manage the unit or you will lose access to the unit. Providing Access to Hosts in the Same VLAN The VLAN feature lets hosts manage the unit. If the Management VLAN ID matches a VLAN User ID, those hosts who are members of that VLAN will have management access to the unit. CAUTION: Once a VLAN Management ID is configured and is equivalent to one of the VLAN User IDs, all members of that VLAN will have management access to the unit. Be careful to restrict VLAN membership to those with legitimate access to the unit. SU VLAN Configuration The HTTP Interface to configure SU VLAN parameters is shown in the following figure. Add SU Table Entries To add entries to the SU VLAN Table, click the Add Table Entries button. Enter the desired parameters in the corresponding fields, then click Add to add and save the entry. 104 Configuration VLAN Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The following parameters are configurable:
MAC: Enter the MAC address of the SU to be configured. SU VLAN Mode: The SU VLAN mode can be either Transparent, Trunk, or Access (by default, the BSU is in Transparent mode). When the BSU is in Transparent mode, the SU must be in Transparent mode. When the BSU is in Trunk mode, the SU must be in either Access mode or Trunk mode. When the BSU is changed from Transparent mode to Trunk mode, all the configured SUs are changed to Trunk mode by default. Access VLAN ID: The Access VLAN ID is configurable in any mode, but applies only when the SU is in Access mode. The Access VLAN ID values range from 1 to 4095; the default value is 1. Access VLAN Priority: The Access VLAN Priority is configurable in any mode, but applies only when the SU is in Access mode. The Access VLAN priority values range from 0 to 7; the default priority is 0. For voice frames, the priority field is set to the VoIP configured value (5 according to latest IETF draft, or 6 according to IEEE 802.1D) regardless of the priority value configured. Management VLAN ID: The management VLAN ID is configurable in any mode. The management VLAN ID has a default value of untagged (-1) and may be configured with a value in the range of 1 to 4095. Management Priority: The Management VLAN priority values range from 0 to 7 and the default priority is 0 (zero). VLAN 1-16: The VLAN IDs are configurable in any mode, but apply only when the SU is in Trunk mode. The VLAN ID values range from 1 to 4095; the default value is untagged (-1). The maximum number of VLAN IDs that can be configured in the SU VLAN Table is 16 for each SU. The SU VLAN IDs must be in the BSU VLAN Table that corresponds to the BSU. Edit SU Table Entries To edit SU table entries, click the Edit/Delete Table Entries button; make your changes on the window displayed, then click OK to save your changes. 105 Configuration VLAN Parameters Typical User VLAN Configurations MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management VLANs segment network traffic into groups, which lets you limit broadcast and multicast traffic. These groups enable hosts from different VLANs to access different resources using the same network infrastructure. Hosts using the same physical network are limited to those resources available to their workgroup. The unit can segment users into a maximum of 16 different VLANs per unit, based upon a VLAN ID. The primary scenarios for using VLAN workgroups are as follows:
VLAN disabled: Your network does not use VLANs. VLAN enabled: Each VLAN workgroup uses a different VLAN ID Tag. A mixture of Tagged and Untagged workgroups may be supported. 106 Configuration QoS (Quality of Service) Parameters QoS (Quality of Service) Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The Quality of Service (QoS) feature is based on 802.16 standard and defines the classes, service flows (SFCs), and packet identification rules (PIRs) for specific types of traffic. The main priority of QoS is to guarantee a reliable and adequate transmission quality for all traffic types under conditions of high congestion and bandwidth over-subscription
(for a complete discussion on QoS see Quality of Service (QoS). There are already several pre-defined QoS classes, SFCs and PIRs available that you may choose from which cover the most common types of traffic. If you want to configure something else, you start building the hierarchy of a QoS class by defining PIRs; then you associate some of those PIRs to specific Service Flow classes (SFCs); you assign priorities to each PIR within each SFC; and finally you define the QoS class by associating relevant SFCs to each QoS class. QoS PIR Configuration Click Configure > QoS > QoS PIR Table. The 17 predefined PIRs are shown. To view/edit the parameters of each PIR click on its Details button. You may enable, disable or delete any PIR entry by clicking on the Status drop-down box and then clicking OK. 107 Configuration QoS (Quality of Service) Parameters MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management To add entries to the PIR Table, click the Add Table Entries button.

To delete an entry, click the Status drop-down box and select Delete, then click OK. 115 Configuration SU Access to the Public Network (NAT) SU Access to the Public Network (NAT) MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The NAT (Network Address Translation) feature lets hosts on the Ethernet side of the SU transparently access the public network through the BSU. All hosts in the private network can have simultaneous access to the public network. NOTE: The NAT tab is available for SUs in Routing mode only. The SU supports NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) where all private IP addresses are mapped to a single public IP address, and does not support Basic NAT (where private IP addresses are mapped to a pool of public IP addresses). Both dynamic mapping (allowing private hosts to access hosts in the public network) and static mapping (allowing public hosts to access hosts in the private network) are supported:
In dynamic mapping, the SU maps the private IP addresses and its transport identifiers to transport identifiers of a single Public IP address as they originate sessions to the public network. This is used only for outbound access. Static mapping is used to provide inbound access. The SU maps a private IP address and its local port to a fixed public port of the global IP address. This is used to provide inbound access to a local server for hosts in the public network. Static port mapping allows only one server of a particular type. Up to 1000 ports (500 UDP and 500 TCP) are supported. The following parameters are configurable:
NOTE: Changes to NAT parameters, including the NAT Static Port Mapping Table, require a reboot to take effect. NOTE: When NAT is enabled, the DHCP Relay Agent feature is not supported (DHCP Relay Agent must be disabled before NAT is enabled) and RIP updates are not sent or received. You can configure a DHCP server to allocate IP addresses to hosts on the Ethernet side of the SU/ BSU (see Enable and Configure the DHCP Server). NAT Status: Enables or disables the NAT feature. NAT can be enabled only for SUs in Routing mode. The default is disabled. NAT Static Bind Status: Enables or disables the NAT Static Bind status (static mapping) allowing public hosts to access hosts in a private network. The default is disabled. Public IP Address: The NAT Public IP address is the wireless interface IP address. NAT Static Port Mapping Table Adding entries to the NAT Static Mapping Table lets configured hosts in a private address realm on the Ethernet side of the SU access hosts in the public network using Network Address Port Translation (NAPT). Up to 1000 entries can be configured (500 UDP ports and 500 TCP ports). Adding Entries To add an entry:
116 Configuration SU Access to the Public Network (NAT) MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 1. Click the Add Table Entries button. 2. Enter the Local IP Address of the host on the Ethernet side of the SU. 3. Select the Port Type: TCP, UDP, or Both. 4. Enter the Start Port and End Port. 5. Click Add. Editing Entries To make changes to an entry:
1. Click the Edit/Delete Table Entries button. 2. Enter your changes. To delete an entry, click the Status drop-down box and select Delete 3. Click OK. Supported Session Protocols The NAT feature supports the following session protocols for both inbound and outbound access with the required support, applications, and limitations given in the following table. Certain Internet applications require an Application Level Gateway (ALG) to provide the required transparency for an application running on a host in a private network to connect to its counterpart running on a host in the public network. An ALG may interact with NAT to set up state information, use NAT state information, modify application specific payload and perform the tasks necessary to get the application running across address realms. No more than one server of a particular type is supported within the private network behind the SU. These VPN protocols are supported with their corresponding ALGs: IPsec, PPTP, L2TP.

Each host using ICQ needs to be mapped for different ports. Each host using IRC needs to be mapped for different ports. Only one user is allowed for net meeting. When a Quake server is configured within the private network behind a SU, the SU cannot provide information about that server on the public network. Also, certain Quake servers do not let multiple users log in using the same IP address, in which case only one Quake user is allowed. 118 Monitoring MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 7 ICMP This chapter describes using the Web interface to obtain detailed information about the settings and performance of the unit. Click the Monitor button to access this information. The following tabs appear in the Monitor section:

MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management NOTE: A BSU shows how many WORP SUs it can support; the SU shows how many Ethernet hosts it supports on its Ethernet port as the Max Users on Satellite parameter. 123 Monitoring Link Test Link Test MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management Click Monitor > Link Test to find out which wireless stations are in range and to check their link quality. NOTE: Link Test requires Internet Explorer version 6.0 or later. Earlier versions do not support Link Test. Link Test for the unit reports the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) value in dB; the higher this number, the better the signal quality. Furthermore, it reports the signal level and noise level in dBm. The latter two are approximations of the level at which the unit receives the signal of the peer unit and the background noise. Clicking Explore from a BSU displays all its registered SUs. Clicking Explore from an SU displays only the BSU with which it is registered. All stations displayed after Explore come up Disabled. Select a station by changing Disabled to Start and click the Link Test button. You can change multiple stations to Start, but only the last station in the list is displayed as the remote partner when you click the Link Test button. The Link Test provides SNR, Signal, and Noise information for both, the local and the remote units levels. Link Test stops when you close the Link Test page. 124 Monitoring Interfaces Interfaces MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management Click Monitor > Interfaces to view detailed information about the IP-layer performance of the units interfaces.

This tab is available only on the BSU. 131 Monitoring Temperature Temperature MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The feature for reporting and logging internal unit temperature observes and reports the internal temperature of the unit. Temperature is logged and an SNMP trap sent when the internal temperature crosses the limit of 0C to 55C (at 5 degrees before the limit, the unit issues a warning trap). You can select a recording interval from one to sixty minutes, in 5-minute increments on the Configure: System tab. A log file holds the recorded data. The log can hold at least 576 entries (two days with the refresh time of 5 minutes). For further analysis, the log can be exported to a text file with a new line feed as a line separator. The Temperature Log contains two sub-tabs:
The Current Temperature tab indicates the units current temperature. The current temperature value is refreshed every 4 seconds. The Log tab keeps track of the temperature recorded at the end of each configured logging interval. You can reset or refresh the log using the Reset and Refresh buttons. 132 Commands MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 8 This chapter describes the commands that you can issue with the Web Interface.

TFTP Server Setup: Prepares the TFTP server for transferring files to and from the unit. This procedure is used by the other procedures that transfer files. Web Interface Image File Download: Upgrades the embedded software. Configuration Backup: Saves the configuration of the unit. Configuration Restore: Restores a previous configuration through configuration file download. Soft Reset to Factory Default: Resets the unit to the factory default settings through the Web or Command Line Interface. Hard Reset to Factory Default: In some cases, it may be necessary to revert to the factory default settings (for example, if you cannot access the unit or you lost the password for the Web Interface). Forced Reload: Completely resets the unit and erases the embedded software. Use this procedure only as a last resort if the unit does not boot and the Hard Reset to Factory Default procedure did not help. If you perform a Forced Reload, you must download a new image file as described in Image File Download with the Bootloader. Image File Download with the Bootloader: If the unit does not contain embedded software, or the embedded software is corrupt, you can use this procedure to download a new image file. 139 Procedures TFTP Server Setup TFTP Server Setup MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management A Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server lets you transfer files across a network. You can upload files from the unit for backup or copying, and you can download the files for configuration and image upgrades. The SolarWinds TFTP server software is located on the product installation CD, or can be downloaded from http://support.proxim.com. You can also download the latest TFTP software from SolarWinds Web site at http://www.solarwinds.net. The instructions that follow assume that you are using the SolarWinds TFTP server software; other TFTP servers may require different configurations. NOTE: If a TFTP server is not available in the network, you can perform similar file transfer operations using the HTTP interface. To download or upload a file, you must connect to the computer with the TFTP server through the units Ethernet port. This can be any computer in the network or a computer connected to the unit with a cross-over Ethernet cable. For information about installing the TFTP server, see Step 13: Install Documentation and Software. Ensure that:
1. The upload or download directory is correctly set (the default directory is C:\TFTP-Root). 2. The required image file is present in the directory. 3. The TFTP server is running. The TFTP server must be running only during file upload and download. You can check the connectivity between the unit and the TFTP server by pinging the unit from the computer that hosts the TFTP server. The ping program should show replies from the unit. 4. The TFTP server is configured to both Transmit and Receive files (on the Security tab under File > Configure), with no automatic shutdown or time-out (on the Auto-Close tab). 140 Procedures Web Interface Image File Download Web Interface Image File Download MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management In some cases, it may be necessary to upgrade the embedded software of the unit by downloading an image file.

File Type Config File Operation Download 5. Click OK to start the file transfer. The unit downloads the configuration file. The TFTP server program should show download activity after a few seconds. When the download is complete and the system rebooted, the configuration is restored. 143 Procedures Soft Reset to Factory Default Soft Reset to Factory Default MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management If necessary, you can reset the unit to the factory default settings. Resetting to default settings means that you must configure the unit anew. To reset to factory default settings using the Web Interface:
1. Click Commands > Reset. 2. Click the Reset to Factory Default button. The device configuration parameter values are reset to their factory default values. If you do not have access to the unit, you can use the procedure described in Hard Reset to Factory Default below as an alternative. 144 Procedures Hard Reset to Factory Default Hard Reset to Factory Default MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management If you cannot access the unit or you have lost its password, you can reset the unit to the factory default settings. Resetting to default settings means you must configure the unit anew. To reset to factory default settings, press and hold the RELOAD button on the side of the units power supply for a minimum of 5 seconds but no more than 10 seconds. The configuration is deleted from the unit and the unit reboots, writing and using a default configuration. CAUTION: It you hold the RELOAD button for longer than 20 seconds, you may go into Forced Reload mode, which erases the units embedded software. This software image must be reloaded through an Ethernet connection with a TFTP server. The image filename to be downloaded can be configured with either ScanTool through the Ethernet interface or with the Boot Loader CLI through the serial port to make the unit functional again. 145 Procedures Forced Reload Forced Reload MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management With Forced Reload, you erase the embedded software. Use this procedure only as a last resort if the unit does not boot and the Reset to Factory Defaults procedure did not help. If you perform a Forced Reload, you must download a new image file with the Bootloader (see Image File Download with the Bootloader below). CAUTION: The following procedure erases the embedded software of the unit. This software image must be reloaded through an Ethernet connection with a TFTP server. The image filename to be downloaded can be configured with ScanTool through the Ethernet interface to make the unit functional again. To do a forced reload:
1. Disconnect and reconnect power to the unit; the unit resets and the LEDs flash. 2. Immediately press and hold the RELOAD button on the side of the units power supply for about 20 seconds. The software image and configuration are deleted from the unit. 3. Follow the Image File Download with the Bootloader procedure to download an image file. 146 Procedures Image File Download with the Bootloader Image File Download with the Bootloader MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The following procedures download an image file to the unit after the embedded software has been erased with Forced Reload or when the embedded software cannot be started by the Bootloader. A new image file can be downloaded to the unit with ScanTool, or the Command Line Interface through the units serial port. In both cases, the file is transferred through Ethernet with TFTP. Because the CLI serial port option requires a serial RS-232C cable, Proxim recommends the ScanTool option. Download with ScanTool To download an image file with the ScanTool:
1. Set up the TFTP server as described in TFTP Server Setup. 2. Run ScanTool on a computer that is connected to the same LAN subnet as the unit. ScanTool scans the subnet for units and displays the found units in the main window. If in Forced Reload, ScanTool does not find the device until the unit Bootloader times out from its default operation to download an image. Click Rescan to re-scan the subnet and update the display until the unit shows up in Bootloader mode. 3. Select the unit to which you want to download an image file and click Change. 4. Ensure that IP Address Type Static is selected and fill in the following details:
Password IP Address and Subnet Mask of the unit. TFTP Server IP Address and, if necessary, the Gateway IP Address of the TFTP server. Image File Name of the file with the new image. 5. Click OK to start the file transfer. The unit downloads the image file. The TFTP server program should show download activity after a few seconds. When the download is complete, the LED pattern should return to reboot state. The unit is ready to start the embedded software. After a Forced Reload procedure, the unit returns to factory default settings and must be reconfigured. ScanTool can be used to set the system name and IP address. To access the unit, see Logging in to the Web Interface. Download with CLI To use the CLI through the serial port of the unit, you need a connector cable with a male RJ11 and a female DB9 connector (included with the unit) and an ASCII terminal program such as HyperTerminal. Proxim recommends you switch off the unit and the computer before connecting or disconnecting the serial RS-232C cable. To download an image file:
1. Set up the TFTP server as described in TFTP Server Setup. 2. Start the terminal program (such as HyperTerminal), set the following connection properties, and then connect:
Bits per second: 9600 COM port: for example, COM1 or COM2 to which the unit serial port is connected) Data bits: 8 Stop bits: 1 Flow control: None Parity: None 3. Disconnect and reconnect power to reset the unit; the terminal program displays Power On Self Test (POST) messages. 147 Procedures Image File Download with the Bootloader MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 4. When the Sending Traps to SNMP manager periodically message is displayed (after about 30 seconds), press the ENTER key. 5. The command prompt is displayed; enter the following commands:
set ipaddr <IP address nit>
set ipsubmask <subnet mask>
set ipaddrtype static set tftpipaddr <IP address TFTP server>
set tftpfilename <image file name>
set ipgw <gateway IP address>
reboot For example:
set ipaddr 10.0.0.12 set ipsubmask 255.255.255.0 set ipaddrtype static set tftpipaddr 10.0.0.20 set tftpfilename image.bin set ipgw 10.0.0.30 reboot The unit reboots and downloads the image file. The TFTP server program should show download activity after a few seconds. When the download is complete, the unit is ready for configuration. To access the unit, see Logging in to the Web Interface. Note that the IP configuration in normal operation differs from the IP configuration of the Boot Loader. 148 Troubleshooting MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 10 This chapter helps you to isolate and solve problems with your unit. In the event this chapter does not provide a solution, or the solution does not solve your problem, check our support website at http://support.proxim.com. Before you start troubleshooting, it is important that you have checked the details in the product documentation. For details about RADIUS, TFTP, terminal and telnet programs, and Web browsers, refer to their appropriate documentation. In some cases, rebooting the unit clears the problem. If nothing else helps, consider a Soft Reset to Factory Default or a Forced Reload. The Forced Reload option requires you to download a new image file to the unit. See the following:
Connectivity Issues Communication Issues Setup and Configuration Issues VLAN Operation Issues Link Problems Connectivity Issues The issues described in this section relate to the connections of the unit. Unit Does Not Boot The unit shows no activity (the power LED is off). 1. Ensure that the power supply is properly working and correctly connected. 2. Ensure that all cables are correctly connected. 3. Check the power source. 4. If you are using an Active Ethernet splitter, ensure that the voltage is correct. Serial Link Does Not Work The unit cannot be reached through the serial port. 1. Check the cable connection between the unit and the computer. 2. Ensure that the correct COM port is used. 3. Start the terminal program; set the following connection properties (also see HyperTerminal Connection Properties Bits per second: 9600 in the Tsunami MP.11 Reference Manual), and then connect. COM port: for example, COM1 or COM2 to which the unit serial port is connected) Data bits 8 Stop bits: 1 Flow control: None Parity: None 4. Ensure that the unit and the computer use the same serial port configuration parameters. 149 Troubleshooting Connectivity Issues MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management 5. Disconnect and reconnect power to reset the unit. The terminal program displays Power On Self Tests (POST) messages and displays the following after approximately 90 seconds: Please enter password:
HyperTerminal Connection Problems The serial connection properties can be found in HyperTerminal as follows:
1. Start HyperTerminal and select Properties from the File menu. 2. Select Direct to Com 1 in the Connect using: drop-down list (depending upon the COM port you use); then click Configure. 3. Enter or edit the information as follows, and click OK. Bits per second: 9600 Data bits: 8 Parity: None Stop bits: 1 Flow control: None 4. Click the Settings tab and then click ASCII Setup. 5. Ensure that Send line ends with line feeds is selected and click OK twice. HyperTerminal is now correctly configured. Ethernet Link Does Not Work 1. First check the Ethernet LED:
Solid Green: Power is on, the radio is up, and the Ethernet link is also up. Blinking Green: Power is on, the radio is coming up and the Ethernet is down. 2. Verify pass-through versus cross-over cable. Cannot Use the Web Interface 1. Open a command prompt window and enter ping <ip address unit> (for example ping 10.0.0.1). If the unit does not respond, make sure that you have the correct IP address. If the unit responds, the Ethernet connection is working properly, continue with this procedure. 2. Ensure that you are using one of the following Web browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or later (Version 6.0 or later recommended) Netscape version 6.0 or later. 3. Ensure that you are not using a proxy server for the connection with your Web browser. 4. Ensure that you have not exceeded the maximum number of Web Interface or CLI sessions. 5. Double-check the physical network connections. Use a well-known unit to ensure the network connection is properly functioning. 6. Perform network infrastructure troubleshooting (check switches, routers, and so on). 150 Troubleshooting Communication Issues Communication Issues Two Units Are Unable to Communicate Wirelessly MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management If a wireless link is possible after testing two units within close distance of each other, then there are two possible reasons why wireless connectivity is not possible while the MP.11 units are at their desired locations:
1. There may be a problem in the RF path, for example, a bad connector attachment (this is the most common problem in installations) or a bad cable (water ingress). NOTE: The cables can be swapped with known good ones as a temporary solution to verify cable quality. 2. Another reason may be related to an interference problem caused by a high signal level from another radio. This can be checked by changing the frequency and then verifying whether another channel works better or by changing the polarization as a way of avoiding the interfering signal. To know in advance how much interference is present in a given environment, a Spectrum Analyzer can be attached to a (temporary) antenna for measuring the signal levels on all available Channels. NOTE: The antennas are usually not the problem, unless mounted upside down causing the drain hole to be quickly filled with radome. If a wireless link is not possible after testing two units within close distance of each other, then the problem is either hardware or configuration related, such as a wrong Network name, Encryption key, Network Secret or Base Station Name. To eliminate these issues from being a factor, resetting the both units to factory defaults is the recommended solution. If a wireless link is not possible after resetting the units and verifying that one unit is a BSU with WORP Base interface configured and the other is a Satellite, then the problem is not configuration related and the only remaining reason is a possible hardware problem. Acquiring a third unit and then testing it amongst the existing units will help pinpoint the broken unit. 151 Troubleshooting Setup and Configuration Issues Setup and Configuration Issues The following issues relate to setup and configuration problems. Lost Password MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management If you lost your password, you must reset the unit to the default settings. See Hard Reset to Factory Default. The default password is public. If you record your password, keep it in a safe place. The Unit Responds Slowly If the unit takes a long time to become available, it could mean that:
No DHCP server is available. The IP address of the unit is already in use. Verify that the IP address is assigned only to the unit. Do this by switching off the unit 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 unit uses a static IP address, switching to DHCP mode could remedy this problem. Also see Setting the IP Address with ScanTool. There is too much network traffic. Web Interface Does Not Work If you cannot connect to the unit Web server through the network:
1. Connect a computer to the serial port of the unit and check the HTTP status. The HTTP status can restrict HTTP access at different interfaces. For more information, see Serial Port in the Tsunami MP.11 Reference Manual. 2. Open a command prompt window and enter: ping <ip address unit> (for example ping 10.0.0.1) If the unit does not respond, ensure that you have the correct IP address. If the unit responds, the Ethernet connection is working properly; continue with this procedure. 3. Ensure that you are using one of the following Web browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or later (Version 6.0 or later recommended) Netscape version 6.0 or later 4. Ensure that you are not using a proxy server for the connection with your Web browser. 5. Ensure that you have not exceeded the maximum number of Web Interface sessions. Command Line Interface Does Not Work If you cannot connect to the unit through the network:
1. Connect a computer to the serial port of the unit and check the SNMP table. The SNMP table can restrict telnet or 2. Open a command prompt window and enter: ping <ip address unit> (for example ping 10.0.0.1). HTTP access. For more information, see Serial Port in the Tsunami MP.11 Reference Manual. If the unit does not respond, ensure that you have the correct IP address. If the unit responds, the Ethernet connection is working properly; continue with this procedure. 3. Ensure that you have not exceeded the maximum number of CLI sessions. TFTP Server Does Not Work With TFTP, you can transfer files to and from the unit. Also see TFTP Server Setup. If a TFTP server is not properly configured and running, you cannot upload and download files. The TFTP server:
Can be situated either local or remote 152 Troubleshooting Setup and Configuration Issues MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management Must have a valid IP address Must be set for send and receive without time-out Must be running only during file upload and download If the TFTP server does not upload or download files, it could mean:
The TFTP server is not running The IP address of the TFTP server is invalid The upload or download directory is not correctly set The file name is not correct Online Help Is Not Available Online help is not available:
1. Make sure that the Help files are installed on your computer or server. Also see Step 13: Install Documentation and Software. 2. Verify whether the path of the help files in the Web Interface refers to the correct directory. See Set the Help Link Location. Changes Do Not Take Effect Changes made in the Web Interface do not take effect:
1. Restart your Web browser. 2. Log into the radio unit again and make changes. 3. Reboot the radio unit when prompted to do so. Wait until the reboot is completed before accessing the unit again. 153 Troubleshooting VLAN Operation Issues VLAN Operation Issues MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management The correct VLAN configuration can be verified by pinging wired hosts from both sides of the device and the network switch. Traffic can be sniffed on the wired (Ethernet) network. Packets generated by hosts and viewed on one of the backbones should contain IEEE 802.1Q compliant VLAN headers when in Transparent mode. The VLAN ID in the headers should correspond to one of the VLAN Management IDs configured for the unit in Trunk mode. The correct VLAN assignment can be verified by pinging:
The unit to ensure connectivity The switch to ensure VLAN properties Hosts past the switch to confirm the switch is functional Ultimately, traffic can be sniffed on the Ethernet interface using third-party packages. Most problems can be avoided by ensuring that 802.1Q compliant VLAN tags containing the proper VLAN ID have been inserted in the bridged frames. The VLAN ID in the header should correspond to the assigned VLAN. What if network traffic is being directed to a nonexistent host?
All sessions are disconnected, traffic is lost, and a manual override is necessary. Workaround: You can configure the switch to mimic the nonexistent host. 154 Troubleshooting Link Problems Link Problems MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management While wireless networking emerges more and more, the number of wireless connections to networks grows every day. The Tsunami MP.11 unit is one of the successful product families used by customers today who enjoy the day after day high-speed, cost-effective connections. To successfully use the connections, technicians must be able to troubleshoot the system effectively. This section gives hints on how a unit network could be analyzed in the case of no link, a situation in which the customer thinks that the link is down because there is no traffic being passed. The four general reasons that a wireless link may not work are related to:
Hardware Configuration Path issues (such as distance, cable loss, obstacles) Environment (anything that is outside the equipment and not part of the path itself) You have tested the equipment in the office and have verified that the hardware and configurations are sound. The path calculation has been reviewed, and the path has been double-checked for obstacles and canceling reflections. Still, the user reports that the link does not work. Most likely, the problem reported is caused by the environment or by improper tests to verify the connection. This article assumes that the test method, cabling, antennas, and antenna alignment have been checked. Always do this before checking the environment. General Check Two general checks are recommended before taking any action:
Check whether the software version at both sides is the most current Check for any reported alarm messages in the Event Log Statistics Check Interference and other negative environment factors always have an impact on the number of correctly received frames. The Tsunami MP.11 models give detailed information about transmission errors in the Web interface, under Monitor. The windows that are important for validating the health of the link are:
Monitor / Wireless / General (Lowest level of the wireless network): Check FCS errors: Rising FCS errors indicate interference or low fade margin. So does Failed count. If only one of those is high, this indicates that a source of interference is significant near one end of the link. Monitor / Interfaces / Wireless (One level higher than Wireless / General): The information is given after the wireless Ethernet frame is converted into a normal Ethernet frame. The parameters shown are part of the MIB-II. Both operational and admin status should be up. An admin status of down indicates that the interface is configured to be down. In Discards and Out Discards indicate overload of the buffers, likely caused by network traffic, which is too heavy. In Errors and Out Errors should never happen; however, it might happen if a frames FCS was correct while the content was still invalid. Monitor / Wireless / WORP (Statistics on WORP): WORP runs on top of normal Ethernet, which means that the WORP frame is in fact the data field of the Ethernet frame. Send Failure or Send Retries must be low in comparison to Send Success. Low is about 1%. The same applies for Receive Success versus Receive Retries and Receive Failures. Note that the Receive Failures and Retries can be inaccurate. A frame from the remote site might have been transmitted without even being received; therefore, the count of that frame might not have been added to the statistics and the receiver simply could not know that there was a frame. 155 Troubleshooting Link Problems MP.11 4954-R Installation and Management Remote Partners indicates how many SUs are connected (in case of a BSU) or whether a Base is connected (in case of a Subscriber). 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. 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. Monitor / Link Test (Information used by Administrators for on-the-spot checking): Check the received signal level (RSL) and noise level. Compare the RSL with the values from path analysis. If the figures differ significantly from the values recorded at the Per Station window, check for environment conditions that change over time. Analyzing the Spectrum 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 degrees, one can check from which direction the interference is coming. 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. 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:
Changing the channel to a frequency away from the interference is the first step in avoiding interference. For countries that require DFS, it might be not possible to manually select a different frequency. Each antenna has a polarization; try to change to a polarization different from the interferer. 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. Lowering the antennas can help avoid seeing interference from far away. 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. Conclusion A spectrum analyzer can be a great help to identify whether interference might be causing link problems on Tsunami MP.11 systems. Before checking for interference, the link should be verified by testing in an isolated environment, to make sure that hardware works and your configurations are correct. The path analysis, cabling and antennas should be checked as well.

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 MP.11 and Tsunami QuickBridge.11 products.
