Theunderlying technology of Proxim’s product radio(s) are based on a combination of MIMO and OFDM (Orthogonal FrequencyDivision Multiplexing). MIMO-OFDM combination radios solve interference, fading and multipath problems On the receiverside, having multiple receivers increases the amount of received power and also reduces multipath problems by combiningthe received signals for each frequency component separately. Hence, MIMO significantly improves the overall gain.MIMO also uses Spatial multiplexing transmission technique to transmit independent and separately encoded data signalsfrom each of the multiple transmit antennas while reusing or multiplexing in the space dimension. These independent datasignals are called Spatial streams. The transmitting antenna uses multiple radio Tx chains and signal paths to simultaneouslytransmit different data streams, whereas the receiver combines the Rx signals resulting in higher throughput.By increasing the number of receiving and transmitting antennas, the throughput of the channel increases linearly resulting inhigh spectral efficiency.1.4 Wireless Outdoor Router Protocol (WORP)WORP is a protocol, designed by Proxim to optimize the performance of outdoor wireless Point-to-Point (PtP) andPoint-to-Multipoint (PtMP) links using packet radio technology, including the use of cutting edgeMultiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology.WORP overcomes the performance degradation, which standards-based wireless technologies are susceptible to when usedfor outdoor long-range connectivity.Benefits:More Net Bandwidth: WORP increases the overall net bandwidth of the multipoint system. The net bandwidth byusing WORP is higher than any other protocol solution used in an outdoor environment. WORP is a more efficientprotocol that protects the system from packet collisions and transmits the data in an optimal way, which increases theoverall performance.More Concurrent Subscribers: An outdoor point-to-multipoint solution based on 802.11 may connect from 5 to 10remote nodes, but sometimes performance starts to suffer from collisions with as little as only 2 remote nodes. Asolution using WORP, on the other hand, can connect up to 100 remote nodes without adverse effects on usablebandwidth, allowing more concurrent Subscriber Units (SU) to be active in a wireless multipoint environment.Smart Scheduling: WORP uses smart scheduling for remote node polling to avoid wasting bandwidth on nodes thathave no traffic to be sent. The Base Station Unit (BSU) dynamically decides how frequently a remote node should bepolled based on the current traffic to and from each remote node and the priority settings for that traffic. Thescheduling is adapted dynamically to the actual traffic and further optimized by following the bandwidth limits asconfigured for each remote node.Dynamic Data Rate Selection (DDRS): DDRS enables WORP to dynamically adjust the data rate at which thewireless traffic is sent. This feature is especially important in point-to-multipoint networks, when different SUs cansustain different data rates because of the different distances from the BSU. With DDRS, WORP dynamically optimizesthe wireless data rate to each of the SUs independently, keeping the overall net throughput at the highest possiblelevel. This feature optimizes throughput even for links with different RF conditions on the BSU and SU, by optimizingdownlink.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-25.png)
![OverviewTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 26Quality of Service: WORP ensures that the most important data arrives with priority by differentiating betweenpriorities of traffic as defined in the profiles for QoS (Quality of Service), similar to the 802.16 WiMAX QoS standarddefinition.Bandwidth Control: WORP allows service providers to control network bandwidth by throttling outgoing traffic inboth base station and subscriber devices, thus protecting the network from excessive bandwidth use by any onestation. Additionally, it allows service providers to differentiate their service offerings.Asymmetric Bandwidth Controls: Asymmetric bandwidth gives network managers the ability to set differentmaximum bandwidth rates for a variety of customer groups. This allows service providers to further differentiate theirservice offerings and maximize revenues.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-26.png)

This feature is commonly used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to establish a Digital SubscriberLine (DSL) Internet service connection with clients. The Proxim’s SU devices support PPPoE only when they are configured in Routing Mode with NAT enabled. Also, the BSUshould always operate in Bridge Mode.Figure 5-16 PPPoE ArchitectureGiven below are the stages for a PPPoE client to establish link with the PPPoE server and then transfer PPP frames overEthernet:Discovery and Session Stage: In this stage, to initiate a PPPoE session, the PPPoE client discovers a PPPoE server (called Access Concentrator). Once discovered, a session ID is assigned and a session is established.Point-to-point Protocol (PPP) Stages: The PPP stage comprises the following sub-stages:1. Physical Link: For sending and receiving PPP frames, the PPP driver calls the services of PPP Channels (used in connection with serial links). A PPP channel encapsulates a mechanism for transporting PPP frames from one machine to another and then the frames are forwarded on the physical Ethernet link.2. Link Establishment: In this stage, Link Configuration Protocol (LCP) performs the basic setup of the link. As part of this setup, the configuration process is undertaken whereby the PPPoE client and the server negotiate and agree on the parameters on how data should be passed between them. Only when both the client and server come to an agreement, the link is considered to be open and will proceed to the Authentication stage.3. Authentication: In this stage, LCP invokes an authentication protocol (PAP/CHAP/MS CHAP v2/EAP-MD5) when PPP is configured to use authentication.4. Encryption: In this stage, both PPPoE client and server negotiate the encryption protocol configuration. Our device support MPPE as encryption protocol. MPPE is negotiated within option 18 in the PPP Compression Control Protocol (CCP).5. Network Layer Protocol: After successful authentication, the link proceeds to the Network-Layer Protocol stage. In this stage, the specific configuration of the appropriate network layer protocol is performed by invoking the appropriate Network Control Protocol (NCP) such as IPCP. We support only IPCP Protocol as a part of NCP.Given below are the features supported by PPPoE client:Preferred Server Configuration by using Access Concentrator Name/Service NamePAP/CHAP/MSCHAP v2/EAP-MD5 Authentication ProtocolsIP Configuration: Static IP/ PPPoE-IPCP](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-69.png)

![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 715. Given below is the table which explains PPPoE client parameters and the method to configure the configurableparameter(s):Parameter DescriptionAuthentication ProtocolPPPoE supports the following types of user authentication protocols that provide varying levels of security:None: Represents that no authentication is required for transferring PPP frames over Ethernet between PPPoE client and server. Password Authentication Protocol (PAP): PAP is an access control protocol used to authenticate client’s password on the server. The server requests a password from the client and sends the retrieved password to an authentication server for verification. As an authentication protocol, PAP is considered the least secure because the password is not encrypted in transmission.Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP): CHAP is similar to PAP with several unique characteristics. Instead of requesting a password, the server sends a challenge message to the client. The challenge message is a random value. The client encrypts the challenge message with user's password and sends the combination back to the server. The server forwards the challenge/password combination to the authentication server. The authentication server encrypts the challenge with the user's password stored in the authentication database. If the user's response is a match, the password is considered authentic. CHAP uses the model of a shared secret (the user password) to authenticate the user. The use of CHAP is considered a moderately secure method of authentication.Microsoft Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol version 2 (MSCHAP v2): MSCHAP V2 is a mutual authentication method that supports password-based user or computer authentication. During the MSCHAP v2 authentication process, both the client and the server prove that they have knowledge of the user's password for authentication to succeed. Mutual authentication is provided by including an authenticator packet returned to the client after a successful server authentication.This method is proprietary to the Microsoft mostly used in windows servers and client.EAP-MD5: EAP-MD5 enables a server to authenticate a connection request by verifying an MD5 hash of a user's password. The server sends the client a random challenge value, and the client proves its identity by hashing the challenge and its password with MD5.By default, the authentication protocol is set to CHAP. You can configure the authentication protocol to the desired one and click OK.LCP Echo Interval To check the link connection, periodically, the PPPoE client sends an LCP echo-request frame to the PPPoE server. If the PPPoE server respond to the echo-request by sending an echo-reply, then the connection is alive.To configure LCP Echo Interval, enter a time ranging from 5 to 300 seconds. By default, the echo interval is set to 30 seconds.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-71.png)
![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 72LCP Echo Failure This parameter indicates the maximum number of consecutive failures to receive the LCP echo-reply to consider the connection to be down.To configure LCP Echo Failure value, enter a a value ranging from 1 to 25. By default, the echo failure is set to 5. On a noisy wireless link, it is recommended to set this value to higher.Preferred Service NameSpecifies the service which the PPPoE server (Access Concentrators) provides to the PPPoE client. Leave this parameter blank, if PPPoE client accepts any service offered by the PPPoE server. To specify the desired service name, enter the service name ranging from 1 to 32 characters.Access Concentrator NameSpecifies Access Concentrator (PPPoE server) name. Leave this parameter blank, when PPPoE client can connect to any PPPoE server on the network. To connect to a desired PPPoE server, type the server name ranging from 1 to 32 characters.User Name and PasswordBefore establishing a link, the PPPoE server first authenticates the PPPoE client based on the User Name and Password as shared by the service provider.Type the user name and password in the User Name and Password box respectively.You can type user name ranging from 4 to 32 characters and password ranging from 6 to 32 characters.: User Name and Password parameters are not applicable when the Authentication Protocol is configured as “None”.Parameter Description](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-72.png)
![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 73MPPE Status : MPPE Status parameter is applicable only when the Authentication Protocol is configured as “MSCHAP v2”.Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) is a protocol for transferring encrypted data over point-to-point links. The PPPoE client negotiates on the encryption parameters based on the MPPE Status configured.The MPPE Status can be configured as following:Mandatory: When the MPPE status is configured as Mandatory, the PPPoE client negotiates the configured MPPE parameters with the PPPoE server. If the server does not agree to the parameters then the link will not be established.Optional: When the MPPE status is configured as Optional, the link is established with or without encryption depending on the PPPoE server configuration. If the PPPoE server supports MPPE encryption then the PPPoE client agrees with the PPPoE server’s MPPE parameters and link gets established with encryption. If the PPPoE server does not support MPPE encryption then link gets established without encryption. Disable: When the MPPE status is configured as Disable, then the PPPoE client does not agree to the MPPE parameters suggested by the PPPoE server.Configure the desired status and click OK.Stateless Encryption Mode : This parameter is applicable only when Authentication Protocol is configured as “MSCHAP v2” and MPPE Status is configured as “Mandatory”. When stateless encryption is negotiated, the session key changes for every packet transferred. In stateless mode, the sender must change its key before encrypting and transmitting each packet and the receiver must change its key after receiving, but before decrypting, each packet.When stateful encryption is negotiated, the PPPoE server and the client monitor the synchronization of MPP encryption engine on both the sides. When one of the peer detects that they are out of sync then the peer should transmit a packet with the coherency count set to 0xFF(a flag packet); the sender must change its key before encrypting and transmitting any packet and the receiver must change its key after receiving a flag packet, but before decrypting.To enable stateless encryption, select Enable. To enable stateful encryption, select Disable.: Enabling Stateless Encryption impacts throughput. It is useful to enable Stateless encryption when packet drops are more in the wireless link.Parameter Description](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-73.png)

Reboot the device, if you have changed thePPPoE Status configuration.5.2.6 IP over IP Tunneling : Applicable only in Routing Mode.Proxim’s point-to-multipoint and point-to-point devices support IP Tunneling, which serves as a communication channelbetween two disjoint IP networks that do not have a native routing path to communicate with each other.To enable communication between two disjoint networks using IP Tunneling, the following steps are involved:1. The tunnel entry point receives the IP packet (Sender Source IP + Recipient IP) sent by the original sender.2. The tunnel entry point encapsulates the IP packet (Sender Source IP + Recipient IP) with the IP addresses of the tunnelendpoints. The tunneled packet (Sender Source IP + Recipient IP + Tunnel Entry Point IP + Tunnel Exit Point IP) is thenforwarded to the tunnel exit point.3. On receiving the tunneled packet, the tunnel exit point removes the tunnel IP addresses and forwards the packet tothe recipient. The inner IP header Source Address and Destination Address identify the original sender and recipient ofthe packet, respectively. The outer IP header Source Address and Destination Address identify the endpoints of thetunnel. MPPE Key Length : This parameter is applicable only when Authentication Protocol is configured as “MSCHAP v2” and MPPE Status is configured as “Mandatory”. MPPE supports 40-bit, 56-bit and 128-bit encryption key length. To configure the desired key length, select a key length from the MPPE Key Length drop-down box. Link Status Indicates the status of the PPPoE link between the PPPoE client and server.The link can be in any of the following three stages:Disconnected: No connection is established between PPPoE client and server.Connecting: A connection attempt is in progress between PPPoE client and server.Connected: Connection is established between PPPoE client and server.The Link Status can be viewed in .IP PacketSender Source IP Recipient IPTunneled IP Packet(Inner IP Header) (Outer IP Header)Sender Source IP Recipient IP Tunnel Entry Point IP Tunnel Exit Point IPParameter Description](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-74.png)

Since there is no native routing path between these two computers, the communication can happen via thetunnel. The SU1device with wireless IP address: 20.0.0.132 and SU2 device with wireless IP address: 30.0.0.132 are the endpoints of the tunnel, respectively. With IP tunneling, the tunnel entry point (SU1) encapsulates the tunnel end points IP addresses (20.0.0.132 + 30.0.0.132)with the sender IP addresses (10.0.0.1 + 192.168.9.101) before sending the data through the tunnel. When the tunnel exitpoint (SU2) receives traffic, it removes the outer IP header before forwarding the packet to the recipient.: IP tunnel establishment does not involve any protocol message exchange. To setup an IP tunnel, the device has to be configured properly on both the ends.

It influences the receive sensitivity of the radio interface and improves operation in environments with high noise level. Reducing the sensitivity of the device enables unwanted “noise” to be filtered out (it disappears under the threshold). You can configure the Satellite Density to be Disable, Large, Medium, Small, Mini, or Micro. By default, Satellite Density is set to Large. The Medium, Small, Mini, and Micro settings are appropriate for higher noise environments; whereas, Large is appropriate for a lower noise environment. A long distance link can have difficulty in maintaining a connection with a small density setting because the wanted signal can disappear under the threshold. Consider both noise level and distance between the peers in a link when configuring this setting. The threshold should be chosen higher than the noise level, but sufficiently below the signal level. A safe value is 10dB below the present signal strength.If the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is not sufficient, you may need to set a lower data rate or use antennas with higher gain to increase the margin between wanted and unwanted signals. In a point-to-multipoint link, the BSU or End Point A should have a density setting suitable for an SU or End Point B, especially the ones with the lowest signal levels (longest links). Take care when configuring a remote interface; check the available signal level first.Defer Threshold (CCA Threshold) parameter enables the device (BSU or SU) to establish areliable link in high interference environments by increasing its value.This allows the deviceto defer the transmission as long as other interference signals in the wireless medium aregreater than the configured Defer Threshold value. Given below are the Sensitivity Threshold Values corresponding to various Satellite Density values:: When the remote interface is accidentally set to small and communication is lost, it cannot be reconfigured remotely and a local action is required to restore the communication link. Therefore, the best place to experiment with the level is at the device that can be managed without going through the link. If the link is lost, the setting can be adjusted to the correct level to bring the link back.Parameter DescriptionsInterference Signal Radio BehaviorGreater than or equal to Defer Threshold Defer the transmissionLess than Defer Threshold Continue the transmissionSatellite Density Receive Sensitivity ThresholdDefer ThresholdLarge -96 dB -62 dBMedium -86 dB -62 dBSmall -78 dB -52 dBMini -70 dB -42 dBMicro -62 dB -36 dB](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-99.png)

Again, during this time notransmission of data occurs. 6. If no RADAR is detected, it operates in that channel else repeats step 5.7. While operating in a channel, the device continuously monitors for potential interference from a RADAR source (this isreferred to as in-service monitoring). If RADAR is detected, then the device stops transmitting in that channel. Thechannel is added to the blacklisted channel list.8. A channel in the blacklisted list can be purged once the Non Occupancy Period (NOP) has elapsed for that channel.: When a channel is blacklisted, all its sub-channels that are part of the current channel bandwidth are also blacklisted.For Europe 5.8 GHz channel, once the device finds a RADAR free channel (after 60 seconds RADAR scan), it does not perform scan for the next 24 hours. This is not applicable when device is rebooted or a particular channel is blacklisted earlier.Even if the preferred channel is configured with a DFS channel manually, the SU will scan for the BSU/End PointA's channel and associates automatically.: DFS is not applicable to MP-8160-BSU, MP-8160-BS9, MP-8160-SUA, MP-8160-CPE devices.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-106.png)

When SU/End Point B has no WORP link, it scans continuously all the channels in the configured Frequency Domain for the presence of BSU/End Point A. If suitable BSU/End Point A is found in any scanned channel, the SU or End Point B tries to establish WORP link. 2. After selecting the suitable BSU/End Point A’s channel, If SU/End Point B DFS is disabled, then SU/End Point B tries to connect to BSU/End Point A.If SU/End Point B DFS is enabled, the SU/End Point B scans the selected channel for the presence of the RADAR fora duration of the configured Channel Wait Time (by default configured to 60 seconds). During this time, if theSU/End Point B detects radar, the channel is blacklisted and it starts scanning on non-blacklisted channels for aBSU/End Point A as given in step 1. If no radar is detected, a connection will be established. 3. While WORP link is present, the SU/End Point B continuously monitors the current active channel for potentialinterference from a RADAR source (this is referred to as in-service monitoring). If RADAR is detected, the SU/End Point B sends a message to the BSU or End Point A indicating the RADARdetection on the active channel and blacklists that channel for Non Occupancy Period (NOP). The default NOP is30 Minutes. On receiving the RADAR detection message from SU/End Point B, the BSU/ End Point A blacklists the activechannel and ACS starts scanning for an interference free channel. : The BSU will blacklist the channel only when the number of SUs reporting the RADAR equals or exceeds the configured SUs Reporting RADAR parameter.4. A blacklisted channel can be purged once the Non Occupancy Period (NOP) has elapsed.On the SU/End Point B, if the preferred channel is configured with a DFS channel then SU will scan all the channels even if ACS is disabled.When a channel is blacklisted, all its sub-channels that are part of that channel bandwidth are also blacklisted.For detailed information on DFS enabled countries, see . 5.4.4.2 Dynamic Channel Selection (DCS)Dynamic Channel Selection feature enables you to monitor the link quality (retransmissions due to interference) on theoperating channel.

The device computes percentage of retransmission for each link and compares with the configured threshold. If the retransmission percentage is greater than the user configured retransmission threshold, the link is considered as bad link. By default, the retransmission percentage is set to 50.Bad Link Threshold Applicable only to BSU.The BSU decides to blacklist the operating channel based on Bad Link Threshold parameter. If the number of Bad Links (Between BSU and SU) equals or exceeds the configured Bad Link Threshold parameter then the channel is blacklisted. Else, it continues to operate in the same channel.By default, Bad Link Threshold value is set to 1.Parameter DescriptionChannel Number Indicates the channel that is blacklisted.Reason Specifies the reason for blacklisting a channel. Following are the reasons for blacklisting a channel:1. Remote Radar: An SU/End Point B detects radar and informs BSU/End Point A respectively.2. Local Radar: The device detects the radar on its own.3. Interference: BSU detects interference based on the retransmission threshold.4. Unusable: For bandwidths more than 5 MHz, channels that are not usable because they fall in the frequency range of other radar/manual blacklisted channels. For example, if channel 110 is blacklisted, then channels 108, 109, 111, 112 will become unusable for 20 MHz bandwidth.5. Manual: A channel is manually blacklisted by the administrator.Time Elapsed The time elapsed since the channel was blacklisted due to radar and interference.

Roaming Channel List (RCL): A list of channels that are learnt from the associated BSU (known as Roaming Preferred Channels), and are not blacklisted locally on the SU. An SU uses this channel list to scan BSUs while roaming. Usable Channel List (UCL): A list of channels that are available to an SU for the configured frequency domain and are not blacklisted.: Manual Blacklisting can be used to reduce the number of channels in the UCL and there by reducing the scanning and roaming time.5.4.5.2 Roaming Types5.4.5.2.1 Slow RoamingWhen the calculated Rx SNR, for the current link, goes lower than or equal to the configured Slow Roam Rx SNR Threshold,then SU starts Slow Roaming.During Slow Roaming, the SU scans channels from the RCL, one at a time. After scanning a channel, it returns back to thechannel where the current BSU operates, resumes data transfer and then jumps to another channel in the RCL, and so forthuntil it scans all the channels. Once the scanning completes, the SU calculates the Rx SNR for each BSU and finds the BSUwith the highest Rx SNR value. If the BSU is better than the current BSU, then the SU roams to that BSU.5.4.5.2.2 Fast Roaming When the calculated Rx SNR, for the current link, goes lower than or equal to the configured Fast Roam Rx SNR Threshold,then SU starts Fast Roaming.During Fast Roaming, the SU starts scanning all the channels in the RCL until it finds a BSU with better Rx SNR than thecurrent BSU. Once it finds such BSU, the SU roams to that BSU and does not scan any more channels.If the SU does not find a BSU with better Rx SNR, in any of the channels in the RCL, it resumes operation with the currentBSU.If the quality of the link with the current BSU is still such that Fast Roaming procedure has to be started again, SU startsscanning channels from the UCL, instead of the RCL, until it find a BSU with better Rx SNR. Once the whole list is scanned,and no better BSU is found, SU resumes operation with the current BSU. SU repeats this procedure until either link qualityimproves, or a BSU with better Rx SNR is found.5.4.5.2.3 Emergency RoamingAn SU starts Emergency Roaming when the wireless link with the current associated BSU is lost for at least 1000 milliseconds.During Emergency Roaming, the SU scans all the channels in the RCL until it finds any BSU. If the whole RCL is scanned andno BSU is found, then SU starts scanning the channels from the beginning of the UCL, instead of the RCL. The SU keepsscanning the channels from the UCL until any BSU is found. When a BSU is found, SU roams to that BSU.: There is a possibility that the new BSU may not be better than the previous BSU.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-113.png)

QoS guarantees a reliable and adequate transmission quality for all types oftraffic under conditions of high congestion and bandwidth over-subscription. There are already several pre-defined QoS classes, SFCs and PIRs available that you may choose from which cover the mostcommon types of traffic. If you want to configure something else, you start building the hierarchy of a QoS classes by addingor using existing PIRs and SFCs; you define the QoS class by associating those PIRs to relevant SFCs with priorities to each PIRwithin each SFC. QoS can be applied on standard 802.3 frames and to Ethernet frames as well as to PPPoE encapsulatedframes.5.6.1 QoS Concepts and Definitions QoS feature is applicable on both BSU/End Point A and SU/End Point B, but is configurable only on BSU/End Point A. Whenconfigured on BSU/End Point A, the QoS parameters is populated to all the registered SUs/End Point Bs and allows them touse the QoS configuration, as soon as they are connected to the BSU/ End Point A.You can create, edit, and delete classes of service that are specified below in the following hierarchy of parameters:Packet Identification Rule (PIR) – up to 64 rules, including 18 predefined rulesService Flow class (SFC) – up to 32 SFCs, including 8 predefined SFCs; up to 8 out of maximum 64 PIRs may be associated per SFCClass List - Priority for each rule within each QoS class – 0 to 255, with 0 being lowest priorityQoS class – up to 8 QoS classes, including 5 predefined classes; up to 8 out of maximum 32 SFCs may be associated per QoS class5.6.1.1 Packet Identification Rule (PIR)A Packet Identification Rule is a combination of parameters that specifies what type of traffic is allowed or not allowed. Youcan create a maximum of 64 different PIRs, including 18 predefined PIRs. Also, you can create, edit, and delete PIRs thatcontain none, one, or more of the following classification fields:Rule NameIP ToS (Layer 3 QoS identification)802.1p tag (layer 2 QoS identification)IP Protocol List containing up to 4 IP protocolsVLAN IDPPPoE EncapsulationEther Type (Ethernet Protocol identification)Up to 4 TCP/UDP Source port rangesUp to 4 TCP/UDP Destination port rangesUp to 4 pairs of Source IP address + MaskUp to 4 pairs of Destination IP address + MaskUp to 4 source MAC addresses + MaskUp to 4 destination MAC addresses + Mask: IP Address, TCP/UDP Port, MAC Address need to be configured separately and associate those classification in PIR details if required.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-129.png)

![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 131: 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.5.6.1.2 Service Flow Class (SFC)A Service Flow class defines a set of parameters that determines how a stream of application data that matches a certainclassification profile will be handled. You can create up to 32 different SFCs, including 8 predefined SFCs. Also, you cancreate, edit, and delete SFCs where, each SFC contains the following parameters and values:Service flow nameScheduling type – Best Effort (BE); Real-Time Polling Service (RTPS)–Best Effort Services: Best Effort Services are typically provided by the Internet today for Web surfing. In the Tsunami® 800 and 8000 devices, Best Effort parameters include Maximum Information Rate, Committed Information Rate, Latency, Jitter and traffic priority. –Real-Time Polling Services (RTPS): RTPS is designed to support real-time services that generate fixed or variable size data packets on a periodic basis. Variable traffic can include MPEG video or VoIP with silence suppression. In the Tsunami® 800 and 8000 devices, RTPS QoS parameters include Maximum Information Rate, Committed Information Rate, Latency, Jitter and traffic priority. Time sensitive and real-time traffic should use RTPS (Including VoIP, Multicast Video and Serial Data). All other traffic (Variable Data, Unicast traffic, Internet) should be scheduled and prioritized using the Best Effort Service Flows. For QoS to function properly, ensure Interference is mitigated, keeping PHY and CRC errors at a minimum (<10/sec/avg). Retransmission at the PHY layer can cause latency, jitter overhead, packet loss and lower than expected throughput.Service Flow Direction – Downlink (DL: traffic from BSU/End Point A to SU/End Point B); Uplink (UL: traffic from SU/End Point B to BSU/End Point A)Maximum sustained data rate (or Maximum Information Rate (MIR) – specified in units of 1 Kbps from 8 Kbps up to the maximum rate specified in the license.Minimum reserved traffic rate (or Committed Information Rate (CIR) – specified in units of 1 Kbps from 0 Kbps up to the currently specified Maximum Information Rate (MIR)Maximum Latency – specified in increments of 1 ms steps from a minimum of 5 ms up to a maximum of 100 msTolerable Jitter – specified in increments of 1 ms steps from a minimum of 0 ms up to the Maximum Latency (in ms)Traffic priority – zero (0) to seven (7), 0 being the lowest, 7 being the highestMaximum number of data messages in a burst – one (1) to sixteen (16), which affects the percentage of the maximum throughput of the systemEntry Status – Enable, Disable, and DeleteThe Traffic Priority with Scheduling Type and Committed Information Rate (CIR), defines the absolute Traffic Priority for aspecific Service Flow as given below:Committed Information Rate (CIR)Scheduling Type Traffic Priority Absolute Priority0 BE 0 00 BE 1 10 BE 2 20 BE 3 3](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-131.png)

![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 133It is important to note that for each SFC with CIR > 0, there are effectively two absolute traffic priorities alloted (total 16priorities for the 8 SFC entries). The higher priority is used as long as the throughput of the traffic being sent through SFC isbelow or equal to the CIR, and the lower priority is used for the rest of the traffic, taking MIR configuration as the secondpriority. This switching of the priorities is done automatically by the scheduler, which makes sure that lower priority traffic getstransported only after all the higher priorities are transported successfully.The device tries to deliver the packets within the specified latency and jitter requirements, relative to the moment of receivingthe packets in the device. For all types of traffic, the device will try to keep the jitter within the range 0 to configured Jittervalue in milliseconds(ms). In order to allow the device maintain the traffic within the configured jitter range, each packet isbuffered until a time interval equal to the difference between Latency and jitter (Latency – Jitter) has elapsed. When thisinterval elapses, the receiving device will deliver the packet. The delay of the packets is kept in the range (Latency – Jitter) toconfigured Latency value in millisecond(ms), that in turn maintains the jitter within the range 0 to configured Jitter value inmilliseconds(ms). However, possible retransmissions can increase maximum delay of the packet beyond Latency milliseconds, which can resultin increased jitter as well. If the SFC’s scheduling type is real-time polling (RtPS) and the packet is not delivered out from thetransmitting unit within the time period equal to the Latency milliseconds, then the packet will be discarded on transmittingdevice. This can lead to loss of packets without reaching the maximum throughput of the wireless link. For example, whenthe packets arrive in bursts on the Ethernet interface and the wireless interface is momentarily maxed out, then the packets atthe “end” of the burst may be timed out before they can be sent. Therefore RtPS type of polling must be used only if it isabsolutely necessary.Users can set up their own traffic characteristics (MIR, CIR, latency, jitter, etc.) per service flow class to meet their uniquerequirements. A good example is provided by the 8 predefined SFCs:1. UL-Unlimited BEa. Scheduling Type = Best Effortb. Service Flow Direction = Uplink c. Entry Status = Enabled. Maximum Sustained Data Rate = 102400 Mbps e. Traffic Priority = 02. DL-Unlimited BE (same as UL-Unlimited BE, except Service Flow Direction = Downlink)3.

Traffic Priority = 1Note that two different VoIP Service Flow classes for each direction of traffic have been defined (index numbers 4 to 7) whichfollow the ITU-T standard nomenclatures: G.711 refers to a type of audio companding and encoding that produces a 64 Kbpsbitstream, suitable for all types of audio signals. G.729 is appropriate for voice and VoIP applications, but cannot transportmusic or fax tones reliably. This type of companding and encoding produces a bitstream between 6.4 and 11.8 Kbps (typically8 Kbps) according to the quality of voice transport that is desired.5.6.1.3 QoS ClassA QoS class is defined by a set of parameters that includes the PIRs and SFCs that were previously configured. You can createup to eight different QoS classes, including five predefined QoS classes. Up to eight SF classes can be associated to each QoSclass, and up to eight PIRs can be associated to each SF class. For example, a QoS class called “G711 VoIP” may include thefollowing SFCs: “UL-G711 20 ms VoIP rtPS” and “DL-G711 20 ms VoIP rtPS”.In turn, the SFC named “UL-G711 20 ms VoIP rtPS” may include the following rules: “Cisco VoIP UL” and “Vonage VoIP UL”.You can create, edit, and delete QoS classes that contain the following parameters:QoS class nameService Flow (SF) class name list per QoS class (up to eight SF classes can be associated to each QoS class)Packet Identification Rule (PIR) list per SF class (up to eight PIRs can be associated to each SF class)Priority per rule which defines the order of execution of PIRs during packet identification process. The PIR priority is a number in the range 0-255, with priority 255 being executed first, and priority 0 being executed last. The PIR priority is defined within a QoS class and can be different for the same PIR in some other QoS class. If all PIRs within one QoS class have the same priority, the order of execution of PIR rules will be defined by the order of definition of SFCs, and by the order of definition of PIRs in each SFC, within that QoS class.A good example of this hierarchy is provided by the five predefined QoS classes:1. Unlimited Best Efforta. SF class: UL-Unlimited BE – PIR: All; PIR Priority: 0b. SF class: DL-Unlimited BE – PIR: All; PIR Priority: 02. L2 Broadcast Best Efforta. SF class: DL-L2 Broadcast BE – PIR: L2 Broadcast; PIR Priority: 03. G711 VoIPa. SF class: UL-G711 20 ms VoIP rtPS– PIR: Vonage VoIP UL; PIR Priority: 1– PIR: Cisco VoIP UL; PIR Priority: 1b.

To add newQoS classes, SFC and PIR, build the hierarchy of a QoS class as follows:1. If new MAC Address, IP Address, and/or TCP/UDP Port are necessary, define the PIR MAC Address, IP Address and/or TCP/UDP Port Entries.2. Define PIRs and specify packet classification rules, associate MAC Address/IP Address/TCP-UDP Port Entries if required.3. Define SFCs4. Define QoS Class by associating PIRs with relevant SFC.5.

To prioritize the traffic based on range of DSCP value, configure “ToS low” and“ToS High” to a range.For Example: To configure ToS Low and ToS High values, when the DSCP packet is in range of 10 to 20, configure: - ToS Low = 40 (DSCP = 10 (Binary 001010) + ECN = 0 (Binary 00)) - ToS High = 80 (DSCP = 20 (Binary 010100) + ECN = 0 (Binary 00))](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-142.png)

The system is designed in such a way that higher priority traffic preempts lower priority traffic, keeping lowerpriority traffic on hold until higher priority traffic finishes. This mechanism ensures that the available bandwidth is alwaysgiven first to the higher priority traffic; if all the bandwidth is not consumed, the remaining bandwidth is given to the lowerpriority traffic.If QoS is not properly configured, the system becomes difficult to access in heavily loaded networks. One of the side effects ofthis misconfiguration is ping time-out, which is usually interpreted as a disconnection of the pinged node. However, with thecorrect QoS configuration, every node in the network can be reached at any point of time.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-154.png)
![Advanced ConfigurationTsunami® 800 & 8000 Series - Software Management Guide 155The following configuration instructions explain how to configure the system so that configuration parameters can always bechanged, and ping requests and responses get higher priority in order to show the actual connectivity of the pinged node.The configuration suggested here assumes that the whole network is managed from a single work station, called themanagement station. This station can be connected anywhere in the network, and can be recognized by either its IP address,or by its MAC Ethernet address if the network uses DHCP.In this configuration, any traffic coming from or going to the management station is treated as management traffic.Therefore, the management station should be used only for configuration of the BSU/End Point A or SU/End Point B nodes inthe network and to check connectivity of the nodes, but it should not be used for any throughput measurements.5.6.3.0.1 Step 1: Add Packet Identification RulesTo recognize management traffic, the system needs to recognize ARP requests or responses and any traffic coming from orgoing to the management station.5.6.3.0.2 A. Confirm the Attributes of the Existing ARP PIRThe default QoS configuration contains the PIR called “ARP,” which recognizes ARP requests or responses by the protocolnumber 0x0806 in the Ethernet Type field of the Ethernet packet.

This way ofconfiguring QoS parameters, reduces the task of manually configuring QoS parameters on each SU available on the network.Explained below is the process followed to configure QoS parameters on an SU from a RADIUS Server.Figure 5-84 RADIUS Based QoS ConfigurationTo establish a connection with the BSU, the SU sends a registration request to BSU. On receiving the registration request, theBSU sends an Access request along with the SU MAC address, to the RADIUS Server. The RADIUS Server then checks theauthentication of the user. If it is an authenticated user, it sends an Access-Accept response along with Vendor assigned QoSparameter’s value to the BSU. On receiving the response, the BSU sends the response to the SU. The received QoS parametersare then applied on the SU.Given below are the vendor specific attributes: :RADIUS Based QoS configuration takes priority over Local QoS configuration.When the link is down, the configuration received from the RADIUS is lost.Name of the attribute Vendor Assigned Attribute Number Attribute Format Attribute Value QoS Class Index 34 Decimal 1 – 8 QoS Class SU Table Status 35 Decimal 1 – Enable / 2 – Disable](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-158.png)

The expanded VLAN space allows theservice provider to provide certain services, such as Internet access on specific VLANs for specific customers, and stillallows the service provider to provide other types of services for their other customers on other VLANs.By default, Double VLAN is disabled on the device. To enable, select Enable from the Double VLAN (Q in Q) Status box and click OK. : Only SU, End Point A and End Point B support Double VLAN (Q in Q) feature.If Double VLAN (Q in Q) Status is enabled, device expects Double VLAN tagged packet in Downlink direction. Management can be accessed with single VLAN based on the management VLAN ID configured.For more details on QinQ, refer to Appendix . 5. Service VLAN TPID: The Tag Protocol Identifier (TPID) helps to identify the frame as VLAN tagged frame. By defaultthe Service VLAN TPID is set to 0x8100. To interwork with few vendor devices that set the TPID to 0x9100, the deviceallows the user to configure Service VLAN TPID as 0x9100. In this case, when a QinQ packet goes out of the device,the Ether type of outer VLAN tag is changed to 0x9100.6. Service VLAN Id: This parameter enables the user to configure outer/service provider VLAN ID for the data frames. Bydefault, the Service VLAN ID is set to -1 which indicates no outer/service VLAN tag is added to the data frame. To setVLAN tag to the frame, enter a value ranging from 1 to 4094.](https://usermanual.wiki/Proxim-Wireless/PROXMB82.Software-guide1/User-Guide-2355961-Page-160.png)
