Configuration

Essentials to Establish a Wireless Link

Settings

IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway: The IP configuration of the radio for configuration and network management purposes. Note that the IP settings in the TrangoLINK-10 are for radio management purposes only.

Default Opmode: Operation mode of the radio after a power cycle or reboot. When the radio enters Opmode "ON," it will be transmitting. When the radio enters Opmode "OFF," the radio is not transmitting, but can be accessed via the Ethernet port. The radio can be put into Opmode "OFF" regardless of its default Opmode by telneting into it within the first 30 seconds after a power cycle or reboot.

Remote ID: Mac address of the remote unit (RU).

Block Broadcast Packets: If this switch setting is selected the MU will not pass broadcast or multicast packets across the link with the exception of ARP and DHCP.

Auto Powerlevel Remote Unit: If this switch setting is selected the MU will control the transmit power of the remote unit automatically based on the RU Target RSSI Setting (on the Advanced Setup page).

Active Channel/Polarization: The current channel and antenna polarization of the unit when in Opmode "AP."
