Overview 1.2 Wireless Network Topology 1.2.1 Point-to-Multipoint (PTMP) Point-to-multipoint is a wireless network that has a central communication device such as a Base Station Unit (BSU), providing connectivity to multiple devices such as Subscribers (SUs) or clients. Any transmission of data that originates from the BSU is received by all SUs; whereas, the data originating from any of the SU is received only by the BSU.
Overview · · Last Mile Access: Competitive broadband service access alternative to Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) or cable for residences and T1 or Ethernet for businesses. Security and Surveillance: High definition IP-surveillance cameras for monitoring city streets, airports, bridges, seaports, transportation hubs, offices and warehouses.
Overview · · Metropolitan Area Network: Secure and reliable connectivity between city buildings. Enterprise Campus Connectivity: Extend the main network to remote offices, warehouses or other buildings without leased lines.
Overview · · Wireless Intelligent Transport System (ITS): Increases the traffic efficiency and reduces the commuting time in cities and metropolitan areas. Roaming: A mobile device (SU) provides seamless network services.
Overview · Offshore Communications: Establishes connectivity between seashore and the ships that are nearing the port locations, or connectivity between off-shore oil rigs and sea shore and so on. 1.2.2 Point-to-Point Link A point-to-point link is a dedicated wireless link that connects only two stations.
Overview Given below are the deployment scenarios, where Proxim's point-to-point devices are recommended. The proxim devices used in the deployment images are commonly referred to as End Point A and End Point B.
Overview · · · Repeater: Extends distance or overcomes path blockage by adding point-to-point hops. High-bandwidth Last Mile Access: Delivers Transparent LAN Services (TLS) to corporate parks. High Availability and Link Aggregation: Achieves high availability and link aggregation in wireless medium by using two parallel links and additional Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) capable switches.
Overview · · Leased Line Redundancy: Eliminates recurring DS-3 leased line charges with one time installation charge of a QuickBridge link. Inter-POP Redundancy: Avoids downtimes caused by a wireline backhaul failure by adding a QuickBridge link as an inter-POP redundancy. 1.
Overview · · · Quality of Service: WORP ensures that the most important data arrives with priority by differentiating between priorities of traffic as defined in the profiles for QoS (Quality of Service), similar to the 802.16 WiMAX QoS standard definition. Bandwidth Control: WORP allows service providers to control network bandwidth by throttling outgoing traffic in both base station and subscriber devices, thus protecting the network from excessive bandwidth use by any one station.

Advanced Configuration Parameter Antenna Gain Descriptions When using external antenna, the professional installer should ensure to configure proper antenna gain so that the radio does not exceed the EIRP allowed per regulatory domain. Calculate the antenna gain as follows: Antenna Gain to be configured = Antenna Gain of the antenna used - Cable Loss Example: Consider an example where the device is operating in United States 5.3 GHz with the EIRP 30 dBm.
Advanced Configuration Parameter Descriptions Improper configuration of Antenna Gain will affect the sensitivity of the radio card. As the radar detection threshold is fixed by ETSI, the FCC and IC, any change in sensitivity of the radio card will result in false radar detections or actual radar signal not being detected. If the configured antenna gain is higher than the actual antenna gain, Radar signals may go undetected.

Advanced Configuration 5.6 Quality of Service (QoS) The Quality of Service (QoS) feature is based on the 802.16 standard and defines the classes, service flows, and packet identification rules for specific types of traffic. QoS guarantees a reliable and adequate transmission quality for all types of traffic under conditions of high congestion and bandwidth over-subscription.
Advanced Configuration A good example is provided by the 18 predefined PIRs. Note that these rules help identify specific traffic types: 1. All – No classification fields, all traffic matches 2.

Advanced Configuration : Two different VoIP rule names have been defined for each direction of traffic, Uplink (UL) and Downlink (DL), (index numbers 4 to 7). This has been done to distinguish the proprietary nature of the Cisco VoIP implementation as opposed to the more standard Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) signaling found, for example, in the Vonage-type VoIP service. 5.6.1.

Advanced Configuration It is important to note that for each SFC with CIR > 0, there are effectively two absolute traffic priorities alloted (total 16 priorities for the 8 SFC entries). The higher priority is used as long as the throughput of the traffic being sent through SFC is below or equal to the CIR, and the lower priority is used for the rest of the traffic, taking MIR configuration as the second priority.
Advanced Configuration e. Minimum Reserved Traffic Rate = 2 Mbps f. Maximum Latency = 20 milliseconds g. Traffic Priority = 1 Note that two different VoIP Service Flow classes for each direction of traffic have been defined (index numbers 4 to 7) which follow the ITU-T standard nomenclatures: G.711 refers to a type of audio companding and encoding that produces a 64 Kbps bitstream, suitable for all types of audio signals.

The untagged data frames received at the Ethernet interface are tagged with this port VLAN Id and then forwarded to the destination interface. By default, the Port VLAN Id is set to -1 which indicates no tag is added to the data frame. To set Port VLAN tag to the data frame, enter a value ranging from 1 to 4094. : · · · Port VLAN Priority Applicable only on an SU, End Point A and End Point B.
Advanced Configuration : You can configure a maximum of 256 trunk VLAN Ids in a BSU and End Point A device, and 16 trunk VLAN Ids in an SU and End Point B device. 5.9 RADIUS Based SU VLAN Configuration RADIUS based VLAN configuration enables you to configure VLAN parameters on an SU through RADIUS Server.

Advanced Configuration An MP.11 SU should locally configure VLAN parameters when connected to a MP 82x/8000 BSU in legacy mode as the BSU will not assign any VLAN parameters based on RADIUS authentication. · An MP 82x/8000 SU should locally configure VLAN in legacy mode when connected to a MP.11 BSU, should locally configure VLAN parameters as the BSU shall not assign VLAN parameters based on RADIUS authentication. · 5.
Advanced Configuration Parameter STP/LACP Frames Description This parameter allows you to either Block or Passthru STP/LACP frames on the network. · · Passthru: By allowing the STP/LACP frames, any loops that occurs within a network can be avoided. If configured to Passthru, the STP/LACP frames in the system are bridged. Block: When blocked, the STP/LACP frames encountered on a network are terminated at bridge. By default, STP/LACP frames are allowed on the network.
