Chapter 6. Conﬁguration Examples

The conﬁguration steps for such a network are:

1.Attach a BreadCrumb device to each of the two LANs using the BreadCrumbs’ ethernet interfaces.

2.Conﬁgure the Network A BreadCrumb device as follows:

a.Reachback Interface: Ethernet

b.Reachback Mode: Gateway

c.Alternate Gateway: Disabled

d.IP Address Settings: as appropriate for a member of wired Network A.

e.AirFortress Encryption: Enabled

3.Conﬁgure the Network B BreadCrumb device as follows:

a.Reachback Interface: Ethernet

b.Reachback Mode: Gateway (Ingress)

c.Alternate Gateway: Disabled

d.IP Address Settings: as appropriate for a member of wired Network B. Make a note of this address as it will be Network B’s default gateway address later.

e.AirFortress Encryption: Enabled

4.Conﬁgure your Network B devices to use the Network B BreadCrumb device’s ethernet address as their default gateway.

5.Add intermediate BreadCrumb devices as necessary to cover the distance between/among LANs.

Note: This conﬁguration can be extended to allow connections from Network A to Network B by conﬁguring the Network A BreadCrumb device to use Port Forwarding, as described in the Section called Forwarding Settings in Chapter 5.

Convoy with UAV-Based Camera for Forward Observation

A convoy with an associated UAV can provide a UAV-based video feed to one or all of the vehicles in the convoy. One possible conﬁguration for such a network including a network camera is:

1.Afﬁx a BreadCrumb ME and camera to the UAV. Connect the BreadCrumb ME’s ethernet interface to the camera’s ethernet port using a crossover cable.
