Fig. 6: Intro - Indoor Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) Module - AC Model Warning to Service Personnel: 48 VDC Customer equipment including personal computers, routers, etc., must be connected only to the INPUT (DATA) port on the PoE unit.
RDL-3000 User Manual Chapter 3 Chapter 3 3 Functional Overview Operation in PMP mode is controlled by the options keys. When a PMP-only options key is activated, the RDL-3000 operation is restricted to the number of purchased subscriber connections. This mode is not equivalent to operating the RDL-3000 in PTP mode with multiple remote units. Enter PMP-only options keys before deploying and configuring the RDL-3000 units. The GUI and Telnet functions are identical for PMP and PTP operation.
RDL-3000 3.2 User Manual PMP Mode The RDL-3000 can operate as a VLAN-aware wireless L2 switch, with traffic being classified and processed based on the packet VLAN ID. The RDL-3000 also provides a Pass through mode that can be used to process traffic that is not matched to a known VID, or simply to forward all traffic received on a port. The deployed RDL-3000 wireless network provides features of a standard wireless L2 bridge (pass-through mode) and a VLAN-aware wireless L2 switch (tagged mode).
RDL-3000 3.2.2 User Manual Services and Service Groups The RDL-3000 can operate as a VLAN-aware wireless L2 switch, with traffic being classified and processed based on the packet VLAN ID. The RDL-3000 also provides a Pass through mode that can be used to process traffic that is not matched to a known VID, or simply to forward all traffic received on a port. The following table lists the two methods to classify and process traffic received at the RDL-3000 Ethernet port.
RDL-3000 User Manual Services Services are used to classify and process ingress and egress packets on the subscriber Ethernet port, and to set wireless uplink and downlink rates for unicast traffic to/from the host subscriber. Service settings include VLAN ID (tag), default priority, parent Link, and parent Service Group. See 3.2.3: Setting Wireless Rates on page 30 for wireless rate settings. Fig.
RDL-3000 User Manual Service Groups Service Groups classify and process ingress and egress packets on the sector controller Ethernet port, and to set wireless broadcast and multicast rates for Service Group members (broadcast group). Service Group settings include VLAN ID (tag), default priority, and broadcast rates. See 3.2.3: Setting Wireless Rates on page 30 for wireless rate settings. Fig.
RDL-3000 3.2.3 User Manual Setting Wireless Rates The wireless bandwidth is shared between all subscribers in a sector. Use the following settings to control traffic rates over the wireless interface. Table 5: Web - Operation - Wireless Rates` Type Function Wireless Settings Link Select the Uncoded Burst Rate (UBR) for the link to this subscriber. The RDL-3000 sets the modulation and coding settings required to provide the selected rate.
RDL-3000 3.2.4 User Manual Pass through Mode Pass through mode is used to process traffic that is untagged or where the VLAN tag does not match the VID of any Service or Service Group. Ingress and egress packets processed by a Service Group or Service set to 'Pass through' mode are forwarded without modification. Pass through mode can be used to: Transparently forward all unclassified traffic between two ports (both ports are 'Pass though' mode).
RDL-3000 3.2.5 User Manual Subscriber-to-Subscriber Traffic SS to SS traffic is any packet received on a subscriber Ethernet port that is addressed to a host on another subscriber in the same sector. Unicast traffic is forwarded to the sector controller and then retransmitted (unmodified) over the wireless interface to the destination subscriber. Broadcast and multicast traffic is forwarded to the sector controller and processed by the parent Service Group of the originating Service. Fig.
RDL-3000 3.2.6 User Manual VLAN Tagged Management When Management VLAN Tagging is enabled, the management VID must be specified. When this feature is enabled, the RDL-3000 recognizes only management commands with this VID. For management using the local Ethernet port, it is not required to create a Service Group (sector controller) or Service (subscriber).
RDL-3000 3.2.7 User Manual PMP Configurations This section provides basic configuration scenarios that illustrate the flexibility inherent in the RDL-3000 design. VLAN Services Default Groups and Services Fig. 16 displays an example of VLAN usage where all traffic not classified to the Voice' Group is classified to the Data Group. The 'Voice' Group and Services are configured for tagged traffic, and the Data Group and Connections are configured for pass-through mode.
RDL-3000 User Manual VLAN Mapping Fig. 17 displays an example of the RDL-3000 VLAN mapping feature. Similar to Label Switch Router (LSR) in Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS), the RDL-3000 PMP system can map (change) the VLAN tag based on the ingress and egress port. The VLAN tagging can be specified separately for each Service Group (sector controller port) and Service (subscriber port).
RDL-3000 User Manual Strict VLAN Tagging Fig. 18 displays an example of VLAN usage where only tagged traffic is allowed to pass through the system. If a Subscriber port has no pass-through connection, or the Sector Controller port has no pass-through group, then that port does not accept untagged traffic or tags that are not explicitly configured. Fig.
RDL-3000 User Manual TLS (Transparent LAN Services) Extended TLS and Double Tagging Fig. 19 displays an extension of this configuration in which the TLS is extended via the Sector Controller and over the backbone to other locations. In order to keep the TLS traffic separate from the rest of the network, the Sector Controller port for the TLS Group is configured 'tagged' by a user-specified VID referred to in this example as TLS VID.
RDL-3000 User Manual Tagged Traffic Using a Designated Management Group Fig. 20 describes a system management scenario where management traffic is tagged at the Sector Controller as well as the Subscribers. The system will map (change) the VLAN tags depending on the ingress and egress ports. Fig.
RDL-3000 User Manual Port-by-Port Tagging Fig. 21 displays an example of port-based tagging in which all Subscriber ports are untagged and the Sector Controller port traffic is tagged based-on the source or destination subscriber. For every tag at the Sector Controller, a distinct group is defined and each group has exactly one connection on the required link (Subscriber port). Note that the tagged port is not necessarily the Sector Controller port, and may be one of the Subscriber ports.
RDL-3000 User Manual Tagging Groups of Ports Fig. 22 displays an extension of the previous port-by-port tagging example where a group can have more than one connection (i.e., the same tag extends over a number of Subscriber ports). Fig.
RDL-3000 3.3 User Manual PTP Mode Operation in PTP mode is controlled by the options keys. Enter PTP-only options keys before deploying and configuring the RDL-3000 units. When a PTP-only options key is activated, the RDL-3000 operation is restricted to a single point-to-point connection. A separate range of RF power settings are provided for PTP operation. The GUI and Telnet functions are identical for PTP and PMP operation.
