3.0 Getting Started with OBR3650HP
3.1 Before You Begin
The OBR3650HP provides the base station component of the Vecima VistaMAX system. To set up and configure the
base station, you require the following:
• One VistaMAX OBR3650HP base station with a stand-alone Power over Ethernet (PoE) or WES800 Ethernet
Switch
• One VistaMAX outdoor subscriber station or indoor subscriber station such as the OSR3500C or ISR3510.
• One of the following components to provide the DHCP and TFTP server:
– Vecima’s Network Management 8000
– A third-party DHCP and TFTP server as per the WiMAX standard. This setup is not covered in this manual.
Setting up the system using NMS8000
Using the NMS8000 as the provisioning tool for all OSR subscriber stations and hosts on the VistaMAX system is the
most common scenario. The platinum, gold, silver, or bronze VistaMAX starter kits available from Vecima Networks
includes an NMS8000.
NOTE
If you wish to connect Internet-accessible hosts to the VistaMAX system, you will need to provide a router with
a public IP address and a valid DNS server. When you are connecting to Internet-accessible host and using the
NMS8000, Vecima recommends connecting one of the NMS8000 Ethernet interfaces on a public routeable IP
address.
