3 C. LOG INTO THE HTTP MANAGEMENT SYSTEM • Open networking properties in your Windows OS. Find the TCP/IP setup window of your wired Ethernet adapter. Set the IP addresses to the following values. Ethernet’s IP Address: 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 • Open a Web Browser on the Test PC • At the URL line, type in the following: http://192.168.1.100 to access the login prompt: • The username is admin and the default password is admin. Click OK and you will see the Main Status screen as shown:
4 4. Initial Configuration A. IP Configuration Navigate to Configuration -> Basic to access the Basic Configuration screen: System Name This is a description of the unit used to simplify the identification of a particular radio in the wireless network. This parameter is not related to the identification of the unit on your wired local area network. For security purposes, the System Name is not broadcast across the RF link. LAN IP Configuration IP Address: IP address of the local unit. Subnet Mask: Subnet mask of the local unit. Default Gateway: Default gateway for the local unit.
5 B. Wireless Configuration Navigate to Configuration -> Wireless to access the Wireless Configuration screen: ESSID The wireless network name assigned to this PTP network. Transmit Power This parameter sets the RF output power of the radio. Increasing this value will extend the range of the PTP system. However, the maximum available power is limited by the country of operation. For example, in the US, the maximum operating power is limited to 23 dBm. Frequency Allows selection of the center frequency of the RF link, based on the region of operation and operating bandwidth. The Frequency parameter is available on Master PTP unit only. On a Slave unit, the radio will search across the available channels in order to find the Master. A sample frequency list is as follows: Frequency Bandwidth 5745 MHz 20 MHz 5765 MHz 20 MHz 5785 MHz 20 MHz 5805 MHz 20 MHz Both Master and Slave must share the same Bandwidth setting. Link Distance Should be set to the actual link distance. This parameter is used to optimize the performance of the SkyWay protocol across long links. Note that the maximum link distance at 20 and 40 MHz bandwidth is 32 and 16 miles respectively. Streams The power of MIMO technology rests on the ability to define the number of data streams that are carried across the multiple RF links. At all times, the SkyWay link utilizes a 2x2 dual-chain MIMO format where 2 RF transmit and 2 RF receive chains are enabled and active. However, these dual chains can be used to carry 1 or 2 data streams. In a 2 stream configuration, unique data is carried across each RF chain, thereby greatly increasing the amount of data capacity over a non-MIMO system. The 100 Mbps capability of the product requires that 2 streams operation be configured. In contrast, when increased link robustness and noise immunity is desired, MIMO can be used in a 1 stream configuration. In this scenario, the same information is carried across both RF chains, increasing the reliability of reception. It is recommended, but not required, that both Master and Slave units share the same Modulation and Stream settings.
6 5. Security Navigate to Configuration -> Security to access the Security Configuration screen: Three data encryption options are available: Open, AES and Radius. All units on a wireless network must share the same security settings. Open: Removes all encryption and formal authentication methods. Note that even with an Open setting, there is still a MAC address based Access Control system which provides a basic level of security. (See next section) AES: Provides 128-bit AES data encryption with passphrase based authentication. Radius: In addition to AES encryption, this option adds Radius/802.1x authentication capability compatible with all MS-CHAPv2/PEAP authentication servers. 6. Access Control In addition to the formal security methods detailed in the previous section, a second, independent access control layer is available. This Layer2 access control system requires that the Master be programmed with the MAC address of the Slave. Navigate to Configuration -> ACL to access the following screen: Slave’s MAC: This is the hardware RF MAC address of the client unit in question. This MAC address can be found on the client unit’s user interface or on the rear label. The correct address must be used to establish an RF link with the base. Slave’s Description: Type in any description that will easily identify the peer with the above MAC address. This is an optional field for your convenience only and has no effect on the operation of the unit. Click Add after typing in MAC address and Description. Note that the slave unit is in the Master’s access list and is shown on the bottom half of the screen.
7 7. Benchtesting Before mounting units into their final location, it is recommended that the system be benchtested to ensure settings are correct. The following benchtest steps are suggested: Setup. Each radio should be connected and configured per the previous Sections, with a laptop or PC connected to each radio directly (or through a hub/switch). Be sure that Access Control MAC addresses are correct and that units share the same bandwidth, data rate and security settings. It is also important to have identified and prepared the antenna, RF coax and Cat5 solutions that will be used in the intended application Positioning. It is important to remember that the Skyway radio and antenna system generate and transmit a great deal of RF power. During benchtesting in an average sized room, the antennas should not be pointed directly at each other. Instead, rotate the unit 90 degrees away from each other. Fine tune the antenna position so that the Local RSSI is between -30 and -60 dBm. Testing. If the system has been properly configured, the radios will begin communicating immediately. The following steps are recommended to verify operation: • Link State. On the Main Status screen, verify that the RF Link State is Green (connected). • Local ping. From each laptop/PC be sure a ping to the local radio is successful. • Link ping. Now ping from one laptop/PC to the other laptop/PC. This will verify the end-to-end link. • Throughput test. Using Qcheck, Iperf or equivalent throughput measurement utility, verify system performance. Notes: (a) Keep in mind that the Skyway Excel data rates stress the performance of a PC, OS and IP stack. To ensure that the test equipment is not the performance bottleneck, testing with a direct connection between PCs is strongly recommended. (b) Using a single FTP session on a typical Windows/Intel machine is not adequate to accurately measure throughput. 8. Physical Installation A. INTRODUCTION Your SkyWay radio is designed with a flexible, multi-axis mounting system. The radio can be mast, tower, pole or wall mounted using the appropriate hardware. After determining the best location for your radio, installation can begin. Please refer to Solectek’s RF Site Design Guide on Solectek’s website (www.solectek.com) for more information about choosing an ideal radio location. To mount a SkyWay radio, both the mast mounting kit and Ethernet cable feedthrough need to be correctly assembled. The recommended approach consists of 3 steps, detailed in the following sections: 1. Ethernet cable / feedthrough assembly 2. Bracket preparation 3. Mounting With the exception of the CAT5 cable, all parts and hardware described in the following sections are included with your SkyWay radio. B. ETHERNET CABLE / FEEDTHROUGH ASSEMBLY Only a single Ethernet cable is needed to connect the Skyway radio to the indoor PoE Injector. Since the cable is exposed to the outdoor elements (heat, moisture, and UV light), only outdoor rated, shielded Cat5 Ethernet cable should be used. To ensure all-weather operation, the weatherproofing cable feedthrough (also known as grommet or gland) must be properly assembled onto the Ethernet cable and radio. The following diagram depicts each of the feed-through parts: The following steps must be followed to make sure that the feedthrough is assembled correctly:
8 1. Remove the Compression Nut and slip it over the Ethernet CAT5 cable as shown above. 2. Slip the Compression Gasket Insert over the Ethernet CAT5 cable 3. Feed the Ethernet CAT5 Cable through the Feedthrough Body (pre-installed on the enclosure at the factory) and insert the RJ-45 connector to the female connector inside the enclosure. 4. Slide the Compression Gasket Insert into the Compression Gasket, as shown above. Make sure to slide the Insert fully, such that the two parts are evenly aligned. 5. Install the Compression Nut and hand tighten until the cable resists slipping when gently pushed or pulled. Lightly wrench-tighten, being careful not to overtorque the Compression Nut. The unit with properly installed feedthrough appears as follows: Note: the total combined length of the Ethernet cables between the radio and your network access device (hub/switch/PC) must not exceed 300 feet. Note: Once mounted in a permanent location, additional weatherproofing tape (included) should be used to further enhance durability. Note: In order to maintain FCC compliance, the use of shielded CAT5 cable is required. C. BRACKET PREPARATION The SkyWay mounting bracket is pre-assembled at the factory for ease of installation.
9 Using the supplied Bolt/Nut/Washer, attach the bracket tab to the SkyWay enclosure ear, as shown above. Moderately tighten all bolts to prevent inadvertent movement during the installation. D. MOUNTING The final installation step involves mounting your SkyWay radio to an outdoor mast or wall. Mast Mount: The mounting jaws can accommodate mast diameters from 0.75” – 3.0”. Note that the smaller jaw piece can be reversed. Small diameter masts require the use of the jaw configuration shown in the first picture, below. Large diameter masts must use the configuration shown in the second picture. Once the jaws are oriented appropriately, the two remaining bolts are used to tighten the mounting kit jaws around the pole/mast. Wall Mount: The larger, integrated jaw has (4) corner through-holes which accommodate either M5 or #10 screws/bolts (not included) to mount the system to a wall or soffit. In such a mounting configuration, the smaller jaw, and (2) jaw bolts are not used.
10 9. Antenna Alignment SkyWay Excel contains several tools to aid with the antenna alignment process: Audible Alignment: The radio produces an audible beep allowing antenna alignment without the need for additional monitoring hardware. Beeping will begin once an RF link has been established, regardless of quality. It is useful to reduce the RF Data rate setting to its lowest value during the antenna alignment procedure to maximize the system’s link capture envelope/angle. Beep rate will increase as a function of RSSI; a higher value will cause a faster beep rate. To assist with both coarse and fine tuning, the beep rate is NOT a simple function of RSSI value. Rather, the rate will continue to increase as long as adjustments deliver an improved RSSI. As soon as any degradation (alignment ‘overshoot’) is detected, the beep rate quickly falls, regardless of the amount of reduction. Thus, the system is useful for both coarse and fine tuning of the antenna position. To ensure the system will deliver adequate link reliability, it is recommended that the operator verify the numerical RSSI following antenna alignment, rather than relying solely upon the audible beep rate. The audible function is enabled for the first 30 minutes of operation following a power cycle. Alignment Page: An alternative tool to assist with antenna alignment is the Antenna Alignment page. Navigate to Installation -> Antenna Alignment to display the following page: On this page is a dynamic display of the RF link state and local RSSI, in both numerical and graphical format. In addition to displaying current RSSI, the bar graph format has an auto-scale function which tracks the minimum and maximum achieved RSSI values since power-up. 10. Verifying Operation The basic status of the unit can be viewed in the Main Status screen: This screen updates periodically and thus displays current field values. Navigate to the Configuration screen if setting changes are necessary. Three noteworthy items: Up Time The elapsed time that the unit has been running since the last reboot or power cycle. MAC Address The MAC address of the local unit.
11 RF Port Link State The link state has two values. Green – An RF link has been established Red – an RF link is NOT established. Each of the ports also has its own, detailed status screen. For the Ethernet Port status, navigate to the details button located on the far right side. The screen below is typical: MTU Size The maximum datagram size that the system is able to transmit. Note that this refers to Ethernet payload not total Ethernet frame size. State: There are two states, Green – Port Up. Red – Port Down. Total Frames: total number of frames received and transmitted by the Ethernet port. Total Octets: total number of octets (bytes) received and transmitted by the Ethernet port. The RF Port (navigate to the details button on the Main Status screen next to each client’s description) also has its own detailed screen:
12 Key fields for this screen include: Master / Slave MAC: The RF port MAC address of the Master and Slave unit. Link State: Green if a link is established and Red if not. Local RSSI: Receive Signal Strength as received by unit currently being managed. For reliable link operation, RSSI should be a minimum of 6-10 dB above the radio’s receive sensitivity. Total Frames: Total number of aggregated RF data frames received and sent by the unit. Note: this number should not be expected to match the Ethernet frames count. Packet framing, aggregation and QoS operations will all affect the manner in which data is transported from Ethernet to RF port. Data Packets: Total number of data packets prior to aggregation, on the transmit side, and following de-aggregation, on the receive side. Receive Errors: Total number of errored frames received by the local unit. Note: RF Frames which are significantly damaged can not be accurately attributed to a paired radio and will not affect this count. Transmit Errors: Total number of frames transmitted by the local radio that were not successfully acknowledged by the remote radio. Errors of this type can be attributed to two causes: (a) Data packet not received by remote radio, or (b) Acknowledgement packet not received by local radio. It is often instructive to compare RX and TX error counts so that RF impairments can be isolated to the appropriate link direction and radio. 11. Quality of Service (QoS) For the transport of real-time data, such as VoIP or streaming video, a QoS system provides end-to-end prioritization of pre-tagged Ethernet frames. The QoS system relies upon the originating network device/appliance to tag frames using an 802.1p VLAN priority tag As a frame enters the Radio, a line speed tag inspection is performed and frames are prioritized as follows: a. A priority queuing method assigns tagged frames to one of the 4 priority queues, allowing higher priority data to then be pushed onto the RF stack ahead of lower priority frames. Tagged frames are assigned to queues based on the following tag matrix: Voice Video Normal Background Tag Method 802.1p 0x3 0x2 0x0 0x1 0x7 0x6 0x4 0x5 b. Once on the RF stack, the RF MAC gives prioritized frames early access to the ‘air’ resulting in the frames being delivered sooner to the receiving radio. Notes: • The QoS system does not add or alter priority tags • QoS is always ‘enabled.’ • For best results, all network devices (switches, routers, gateways) between source and destination devices should be QoS aware.
13 12. VLAN Access A VLAN configuration section is available under Configuration -> Advanced. Units will bridge VLAN frames transparently at all times. That is, all frames tagged with VLAN IDs will be recognized and passed though the system. The unit will NOT tag or strip VLAN ID’s. The VLAN feature option affects the accessibility of the Radio’s user interface by Management computers from within a VLAN. Enable/Disable. If access to the Web GUI will be from a PC within a VLAN, then this feature should be Enabled. If access is from a PC outside of a VLAN, then this feature should be disabled. VLAN ID: The ID should be set to match the VLAN ID used on your management PC. This setting does not affect any other VLANs running on your network or the ability to pass VLAN traffic. 13. Telnet Using the SkyWay radio’s IP address, the system can be managed using a Telnet connection. Access login and password are the same for the Telnet session as for the HTTP GUI. Sessions can be initiated from both the Ethernet and RF side of the Network, and multiple sessions are permitted. Note: the ‘savecfg’ command must be used to save Telnet configuration changes to non-volatile memory. See Appendix B for a complete Telnet command set, syntax and usage.
14 14. SNMP The SkyWay management system includes support for SNMP v1 and v2c via standard and private MIB tables. Navigate to Management -> SNMP access the SNMP Configuration screen: SNMP Enable: For security purposes, the SNMP engine can be disabled, if not used. Community Names and Trap Manager IP Address fields should be entered based on the configuration of your SNMP Manager software. Please refer to the User Manual of your SNMP Manager software for detailed information on establishing and managing units via SNMP. For further questions and to obtain Solectek’s private MIB, please contact technical support. 15. Network Time Using the NTP protocol, the SkyWay Excel radio can be time synchronized to other network devices. To setup this feature, navigate to Configuration -> Advanced to access the Date and Time feature configuration: To time synchronize the radio, the NTP server IP address must be established and the ‘sync’ button pressed. If connection is successful, the local time/date will be updated to match NTP time. An NTP resync will occur automatically twice per day. If the NTP server is off-line, time is still kept locally on the radio. However, a reboot of the unit will blank the time. A re-connection to the NTP server or manual re-configuration of the time is required to correct the time/date. Time zone information must be entered manually as a fixed offset from UTC. Once entered, this information is stored in non-volatile local memory and does not need to be re-entered. All changes should be followed by a ‘Submit’ to make active.
15 16. Password Management Navigate to Management -> Password to access the Login configuration screen: Enter New Password: Enter the new password. Confirm Password: Re-enter the new password for confirmation. At the time of the first password change, a password ‘hint’ prompt will be displayed. Once established, this hint answer can be used to reset the admin password, if it has been forgotten, via the ‘recover’ Telnet login, as follows: > Login: recover > Password: (default) Once logged in as ‘recover’, the hint will be given. Upon successful answer, the admin password can then be changed. It is strongly advised that the admin password, and hint answer be recorded and stored in a secure location. Notes: (a) Password & hint fields are case sensitive and no spaces are allowed. (b) Password & hint can be up to 16 characters in length. (c) Legal characters are: all alphanumerics, plus the following symbols: @ (at sign) _ (underscore) - (dash) . (period)
16 17. Upgrading the Software There may be newer software releases from Solectek periodically. The latest version will be posted on Solectek’s website and available from Solectek Technical Support. The software is comprised of three sections: Firmware, Kernel and Bootloader. However, only a single upgrade operation is required to bring all three up to the latest revision. Upgrading the software will not affect the system configuration, but does require a short period of system downtime to complete the process. NOTE: A PC based FTP server program running on a locally connected PC is required to complete the following upgrade procedure. Solectek recommends FileZilla, a free, open-source FTP server program available via http://filezilla-project.org/ Once the FTP server is installed, the following procedure should be followed: 1. Copy .zip software release package from Solectek website or Technical Support to FTP Server desktop. 2. Unzip / extract files to any convenient directory. 3. Navigate into the extracted fileset to reach the SetupFirmware.exe tool. 4. Launch tool by double-clicking on tool icon; the following screen will be displayed: 5. Press the ‘Browse’ button and select the local FTP server Home Directory. 6. Press the ‘Start’ button. This begins a file copy operation and ensures that all upgrade files and folders are properly moved into the FTP directory. 7. On the Radio management GUI, navigate to Management -> Upgrade to access the Upgrade screen (see sample below). 8. Enter the FTP Server IP Address, Username and Password information as requested. 9. Enter the three digit software version to be loaded onto the Radio. Format will be x.y.0 (e.g – 1.3.0). 10. Press the ‘Upgrade’ button to begin the file transfer process. 11. Once complete, the unit must be rebooted for the upgrade to take effect. Do not power down or unplug the unit during the upgrade process.
17 18. System Reboot Navigate to Reboot to access the System Reboot function: Click on the Reboot button to reset/reboot. The reboot process will take approximately 25 seconds. Once the rebooting is done, you can use the Click Here button below to access the user interface again. 19. Event Log The Event Log displays all major events that may be noteworthy for the system administrator for both monitoring and troubleshooting purposes. Navigate to Status -> Event Log to access the Event Log Screen: There are three categories of events: Notice: This is informational in monitoring the operation of the unit. A Notice entry is part of the normal operation. WARN: This may indicate something wrong with the unit or operation. For example, downing of the RF port may be due to malfunction or the user intervention (power off). ERROR: This is indicative of abnormal operating conditions.
18 20. Log/Configuration Transfer For diagnostic purposes, the Event Log and System Configuration database can be transferred from the Radio to a local PC via FTP. Navigate to Diagnostics -> File Upload to access the following screen: FTP Server IP Address: Local FTP server address. User Name: User name used to login onto the FTP server. Password: Password used to login onto the upgrade FTP server. File Directory: Location on Local FTP server to save Event and Configuration files. 21. Diagnostics For diagnostics, navigate to Diagnostics => Time/Ping menu to view the following: The ping diagnostics tool on the unit can be used to isolate the troubleshooting event to the wireless link only, not involving other network elements such as switches and host computers. You can ping the remote unit from the unit you are accessing via the user interface. Destination Addr: The IP address of the device to be pinged. Packet Size: The size of the ping packets to be sent (in bytes). Packet Count: The number of packets to be sent to the destination IP address. Click on the Start button to initiate the ping session. Click Stop to terminate it.
