Basic Configuration via CLI
Trango Broadband Wireless — Access5830 User Manual Rev. F page 27
Once you are familiar with the AP’s basic system information, you are ready to add one or more SUs to the SUDB.
There are three basic commands related to the SUDB: sudb add, sudb view, and save sudb.
To add an SU to the database, you will need to know the following information:
1. SU ID (user defined – a unique integer that identifies the SU within this AP’s SUDB)
2. MAC ID of SU (printed on the back of the SU)
3. Polling priority, either PRIORITY or REGULAR
! Note: SUs designated as PRIORITY will get polled more often by the AP.
4. CIR (Committed Information Rate) – minimum bandwidth the SU will be delivered from the AP in Kbps
5. MIR (Maximum Information Rate) – maximum bandwidth the SU will be delivered from the AP in Kbps
! Note: Maximum settings for CIR and MIR are 9999 Kbps, which is equivalent to not using these settings.
To add an SU to the database, use the following command and syntax:
sudb add <suid> <pr | reg> <cir> <mir> <device id>
<suid>: SU identification (1~8190)
pr: priority user
reg: regular user
<cir>: committed information rate (0~9999)
<mir>: maximum information rate (0~9999)
<device id>: xx xx xx xx xx xx in hexadecimal (this is the MAC address of the SU)
Example:
#>sudb add 4 pr 9999 9999 F3 3C 50 67 89 D4
In this example SU #4 was added as a Priority SU with CIR and MIR both set to 9999. The MAC ID of this SU
is F3 3C 50 67 89 D4.
! Note: You can add up to 2000 entries in the SUDB. It is recommended that users not enter any more SUs than
necessary since excessive numbers of inactive SUs in the database may negatively impact system performance.
To view the entries in the SUDB, type the command sudb view.
Other important SUDB related commands are sudb delete and sudb modify. See Appendix B for detailed descriptions of
these commands.
!
Important! After updating the SUDB, type the command save sudb to save the SUDB. If you do not save, the SUDB file
will revert back to its previous state after power cycle or reboot.
