Introduction
The Nomadix MIB controls the following settings:
• All of the Public Space features found under the PublicSpace and Subscriber headings within the Web
browser interface (described in Public Space Parameters).
• The following Network parameters:
—IP Configuration
—DHCP Server
—DNS Server
—RADIUS
—VPN
Refer to the MIB files for more information; the MIB files can be opened with any text editor, such as Microsoft Word or
Notepad.
NOTE
The remainder of this guide describes how to configure an AP-2500 using the Web browser interface or the
CLI interface. For information on how to manage devices using SNMP, refer to the documentation that came
with your SNMP program. Also, refer to the MIB files for information on the parameters available via SNMP.

Wireless Network Manager

The Wireless Network Manager is Proxim’s premier management tool for Access Points and Outdoor Routers. It
provides a single management interface that lets an IT manager configure, manage, upgrade, and troubleshoot
thousands of wireless devices from anywhere in the world. The Wireless Network Manager simplifies network
maintenance and easily integrates in an existing SNMP management system.
See Proxim’s Web site at http://www.proxim.com/ for more information on the Wireless Network Manager.

Active Ethernet

Some AP-2500 units are equipped with an Active Ethernet module. Active Ethernet (AE) delivers both data and power
to the access point over Ethernet cabling. There is no difference in operation; the only difference is in the power
source.
– The Active Ethernet (AE) integrated module adds ~48 VDC to unused (non-data) wires in standard Category 5
Ethernet cable.
– The cable length between the Ethernet network source and the AP-2500 unit should not exceed 100 meters
(approx 325 ft.). In other words, the length of cable connecting the Ethernet network to the power injector plus
the length of the cable connecting the power injector to the AP cannot exceed 100 meters.
– The AE power injector is not a repeater and does not amplify the Ethernet data signal.
– AP-2500 devices without Active Ethernet should be connected to a grounding type AC outlet (100-240 VAC),
using the standard power cord supplied.
– Output Power, per Port 11 Watts
