In a congested network, the real maximum bandwidth for an SPR cannot reach the
defined value, but is still in proportion to the value configured. For example, an SPR
that is set to a maximum of 256Kbps can reach a maximum bandwidth significantly
larger than the maximum standard bandwidth of an SPR set to a 64Kbps.
9.9. SNMP support for BSDU
The BSDU is a major building block in a base station site. As such it is required to
be remotely managed by WipManage. As part of release 1.4, WipManage now
supports the BSDU that has an SNMP agent and supports Management Information
Base II (MIB-II) and private MIB.
9.10. IntraCom
The enabling/disabling IntraCom feature provides an option of controlling the
packets transferred among SPRs with the help of a router or a firewall connected to
the BSR in the base station:
•
If IntraCom is allowed, traffic can be routed among the SPRs (via the BSR)
without the involvement of any external router or firewall.
•
If IntraCom is not allowed, then traffic among SPRs is routed via the BSR to a
central router or firewall. The central router or firewall controls the traffic. This
capability is often requested by users interested in central control of the traffic
among sites, for reasons such as security.
9.11. Configuring IP on the air
The IP addresses of the air ports of BSRs and SPRs can be configured by the user
Previous releases do not allow this configuration. The IP addresses of the air ports
were fixed IP addresses from the range of 192.168.0.0 .
