1. Configuration Overview
The wireless link should be physically installed following the instructions found in the
corresponding installation manual provided with the link. When the installation is
complete, the units are ready to be configured using a workstation or laptop running an
HTML web browser. BridgeWave has verified operation with current versions of
Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. The easy-to-use browser interface
allows you to configure the network management agent and physical interfaces, display
link status, set passwords, obtain port statistics, and perform maintenance operations. At a
minimum, the user should ensure that passwords and other security parameters are
appropriately set.
The management agent supports two types of users, with varying capabilities. The
Administrator (username=’admin’) may view status and statistics, view/modify unit
configuration, and perform maintenance functions (including software update). The User
(username=’user’) may view status, configuration, and statistics, but is prevented from
modifying unit configuration or performing maintenance functions. Note that multiple
users may concurrently access the radio management agent from different browser
windows. If multiple users are logged on as Administrator, they are all permitted to
independently modify the unit’s configuration.
