From the RapidLink 54 WLM, simply click on the tab corresponding to the category you need. The following sub-sections will explain how to configure each parameter within these categories.   Tip  While the options differ, each page functions similarly. As you read the next subsections, keep in mind that regardless of the page, any change you make can only go into effect if you click Apply. If you do not click Apply before moving to the next page, your changes will be lost.   Also be advised that certain parameters in the Advanced and Security pages require you to restart the system in order to take effect. In such cases, go back to the setup page and click on Restart. If you know that you will be making more changes, you can complete all other changes, and restart the system later.  5.1 Advanced Page This page allows you to control radio-related parameters, including Transmit Mode, Data Rate, SSID, Channel and Link Distance.  As mentioned in section 4.3, step 2, these parameters must be identical on both sides of the wireless link. Therefore, any change on the Master Bridge should also be executed for the Partner Bridge. This sub-section explains the options in each field of the Advanced page.    Tip  Transmit Mode, Data Rate, and Channel settings are interdependent. Data Rate and Channel are always updated according to the Transmit Mode setting. It is therefore recommended that you select the Transmit Mode first and follow the instructions below in the order that they are presented.
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  17  Installation Guide      Set Transmit Mode:  Simply click the drop-down menu in the Transmit Mode field and select either Turbo or Standard Mode. Data Rate and Channel options will then update according to the new setting.
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  18  Installation Guide     Set Data Rate:  RapidLink 54 supports several possible data rates ranging from 6 to 108 Mbps. The highest transmission rate is 108 Mbps, with automatic fallback rates that allow the unit to operate in the most efficient manner. By default, the system automatically switches between these rates to maximize coverage. However, you may wish to select a fixed Data Rate based on your specific objectives or needs.   Step 1: To adjust this parameter, click the drop-down menu in the Data Rate field and select the desired rate.                                                                                            Note   The default setting, Auto, is recommended.    Auto: When the Data Rate is set to Auto, the Master Bridge will follow an algorithm to determine the highest bit rate possible for communication with its Partner Bridge.     Fixed Bit Rate: The Auto setting is disabled by selecting a specific bit rate to be used for the wireless link.   This would be appropriate when operating in a well-understood environment, and when full rate operation is not possible.  It is recommended that you start with the lowest bit rate.
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  19  Installation Guide    Step 2: Click on Antenna Align to check signal strength. Be advised that different data rates have different         sensitivities, which impact range.                               Tip  Make certain that you still have a good signal. If the Received Value is not high enough, then scale down the Data Rate.   Enter SSID:   The SSID is a service set identifier that uniquely describes your bridge pair. Always use the same SSID for both bridges.
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  20  Installation Guide      Set Channel:  Channels are used to set the center frequency used to transmit data over the wireless bridge link.

You can change this anytime by clicking the drop-down Link Distance menu and selecting the desired setting.
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  22  Installation Guide   5.2 Security   This section describes the parameters available through the Security menu. RapidLink 54 provides two forms of security, access control and privacy. Access control is achieved by MAC address authentication, which allows only known devices to associate with the Master Bridge and establish a wireless connection (refer to section 4.3, step 2).  Another component of access control is the password protected user interface, which can be configured on the Security page. Privacy is accomplished by enabling encryption that prevents rogue stations or wireless sniffers from decoding any captured data. RapidLink 54 provides 128-bit WEP encryption option on the Security page.     Changing your Password  We recommend that you change your Login and Password from the factory default setting to authenticate the identity of the RapidLink 54 administrator and ensure that no unauthorized users gain access to the WLM.   To change your Login and Password, type a new Login name (16 characters maximum). Next, enter a new Password, (16 characters maximum) and enter it again to confirm.    Tip  Create passwords according to the following guidelines: Do Not   Share passwords with unauthorized users    Use personal information easily obtained, such as your actual first or last name, system name, etc.    Use words commonly used as passwords   Use dictionary words or names Do   Base passwords on non-dictionary words, combined with obscure character substitutions   Use the maximum number of characters    Change passwords regularly
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  23  Installation Guide     Privacy  You can enhance link privacy by setting the Encryption Mode to WEP-128 and entering a valid encryption key. You have the option of either creating keys manually or having the system generate a key for you automatically.   By default, the Encryption Mode is Off. If you wish to increase link privacy, perform the following steps for the Master Bridge, then repeat these steps for the Partner Bridge.   Step 1: If you wish to enable encryption, select WEP-128.    Step 2: Click the Key Generation drop-down menu and select either Manual or Automated. If you select Manual, you are required to manually enter each key as described below. If you prefer, you can select Automated, and the system automatically generates four distinct keys based on a passphrase that you enter.   Step 3: Generate at least one valid encryption key. The steps are as follows:    If the Key Generation field is set to Manual, enter keys directly into the fields.  Each key must be composed of 32 hexadecimal characters in the range of A-F and 0-9.   If Key Generation is set to Automated, the Passphrase field and Generate button are enabled. a. Type a Passphrase (no more than 32 characters) that you can easily memorize.  b.  Click Generate, and a one-way hash algorithm will be applied to hash the Passphrase using the specified character encoding and copy the results into the encryption key field.  Note The passphrase is not exchanged over the air. It is as secure as a manually generated key, but easier to remember.                             Step1 Step2 Step3
RapidLink 54 Wireless Bridge  24  Installation Guide      5.3 Antenna Alignment  The Antenna Align page is typically used for initial antenna alignment (see section 4.4 for details).

After registering on http://www.rapidwaveinc.com, you will have access to all the firmware upgrades available. If you have questions about upgrading your firmware, please contact RapidWave’s support team.     Caution    Upgrading the firmware of RapidLink 54 may overwrite some of your configuration parameters. It is therefore important to save a copy of your current settings before performing firmware upgrades so you can re-enter your current settings at the end of the upgrade process. To document your current settings, access and print each of the following screens: Setup, Advanced and Security. Make certain that you do this for both the Master and Partner Bridge.    The steps involved in performing a firmware upgrade are as follows:  Step 1: Obtain firmware image from RapidWave and save it to a directory on your computer or network drive.  Step 2: Start an FTP Server on your computer.  Configure an entry for the user name “rapidwave”, with the password “rapidwave”.  The home directory for the “rapidwave” user should be set to the directory where the firmware image is stored.  Step 3: From the Master side browser interface select Upgrade.  Step 4: Specify your FTP Server address in the space provided.  Step 5: Click browse to open the Windows browse file dialog.                            Step 6: Click Upgrade to upload the image to the Master Bridge.  Step 7: Click OK when you see the pop-up with a warning and OK/Cancel options.                           Step 8: When you have successfully loaded the new firmware, the system must be restarted.  Step 9: Repeat steps 2-7 for the Partner Bridge.      Tip  For greatest interoperability, upload the same firmware image or revision for the Master and Partner Bridge. Make sure that the firmware revisions match on both sides.
