Release 11.0

Release Notes and User Guide Supplement

Select the desired Phase 2 (Inside Identity) authentication protocol from the Phase 2 options of PAP (Password Authentication Protocol), CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol), and MSCHAP (Microsoft’s version of CHAP, version 2 is used). The protocol must be consistent with the authentication protocol configured on the RADIUS server.

Enter a Username for the SM. This must match the username configured for the SM on the RADIUS server. The default Username is the SM’s MAC address. The Username can be up to 128 non-special (no diacritical markings) alphanumeric characters.

Enter the desired password for the SM in the Password and Confirm Password fields.. The Password must match the password configured for the SM on the RADIUS server. The default Password is “password”. The Password can be up to 128 non-special (no diacritical markings) alphanumeric characters.

5.3HANDLING CERTIFICATES

5.3.1Certificate management on SMs.

The default public Canopy and PMP 320 certificates are loaded into SMs automatically during the upgrade to Release 11.0. The default certificates are not secure and are intended for use during lab and field trials as part of gaining experience with the RADIUS functionality, or as an option during debug. For secure operation, an operator will want to create or procure their own certificates.

Refer to Figure 4: Certificate Management on SM's Configuration > Security tab to see the GUI options.

Up to 2 certificates can be resident on an SM. An installed certificate can be deleted by clicking the Delete button in the certificate’s description block on the Configuration > Security tab. To restore fhe 2 default certificates, click the Use Default Certificates button in the RADIUS Certificate Settings parameter block and reboot the radio.

To upload a certificate manually to an SM, first load it in a known place on your PC or network drive, then click on a Delete button on one of the Certificate description blocks to delete a certificate to provide space for your certificate. Click on Choose File, browse to the location of the certificate, and click the Import Certificate button, and then reboot the radio to use the new certificate.

When a certificate is in use, after the SM successfully registers to an AP, an indication of In Use will appear in the description block of the certificate being used.

The public certificates installed on the SMs are used with the private certificate on the RADIUS server to provide a public/private key encryption system.

Motorola has long been a key player in the wireless communications market, known for its innovative solutions that cater to various connectivity needs. Among its diverse product range, the Motorola PMP 100 and PTP 200 series stand out as robust solutions for both point-to-multipoint (PMP) and point-to-point (PTP) applications, utilizing advanced modulation technologies such as OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing) and FSK (Frequency Shift Keying).

The Motorola PMP 100 series is designed for wireless broadband access, enabling operators to provide high-speed internet connectivity to rural and underserved areas. Its capability to support multiple users makes it an ideal choice for ISPs looking to deliver last-mile connectivity. The PMP 100 operates in the 2.4 GHz and 5.7 GHz frequency bands, ensuring flexibility and compliance with various regulatory requirements. One of its key features is the use of OFDM technology, which enhances spectral efficiency and minimizes interference, resulting in reliable data transmission even in challenging environments.

On the other hand, the PTP 200 series focuses on point-to-point communication, offering high-capacity backhaul links between two locations. The PTP 200 is optimized for performance in line-of-sight scenarios, featuring advanced antenna options and narrow beam width capabilities. This product also leverages OFDM technology, which provides increased data rates and improved capacity, supporting applications such as video surveillance, voice over IP, and enterprise connectivity.

In addition to the PMP and PTP 200 series, Motorola also offers the PMP 400 and PTP 100, which utilize FSK modulation. The PMP 400 series further advances the capabilities of wireless broadband access, featuring enhanced error correction, allowing for better performance in adverse conditions. This series is particularly well-suited for environments with high noise levels, making it a reliable choice for industrial applications. The PTP 100 series, on the other hand, operates effectively in point-to-point scenarios with lower bandwidth requirements, ensuring cost-effective solutions for dedicated leased line services.

In summary, the Motorola PMP and PTP series represent a comprehensive suite of wireless communication solutions, utilizing advanced modulation technologies like OFDM and FSK to deliver high-speed, reliable connectivity. These products demonstrate Motorola's commitment to innovation, addressing the diverse needs of users ranging from ISPs to enterprise customers, all while ensuring robust performance and ease of deployment in various environments.
