LNK/5
Furthest left LED in the module. In the operating mode, this LED is
continuously lit when the Ethernet link is present. In the aiming mode
for a Subscriber Module or a Backhaul timing slave, this LED is part of
a bar graph that indicates the quality of the RF link.
LogicalUnitID
Final octet of the 4-octet IP address of the module.
LOS
Line of sight. The wireless path (not simply visual path) direct from
module to module. The path that results provides both ideal aim and
an ideal Fresnel zone.
LUID
Logical Unit ID. The final octet of the 4-octet IP address of the module.
MACAddress
Media Access Control address. The hardware address that the factory
assigns to the module for identification in the Data Link layer interface
of the Open Systems Interconnection system. This address serves as
an electronic serial number.
Management
InformationBase
Space that allows a program (agent) in the network to relay
information to a network monitor about the status of defined variables
(objects).
Master
Designation that defines the role of a component relative to the role of
another. This designation both applies to a Backhaul module that
provides synchronization over the air to another Backhaul module
(a Backhaul timing slave) and applies to a Bandwidth and
Authentication Manager (BAM) server whose SQL database is
automatically copied onto a redundant BAM server (BAM slave). In
each case, the master is not a product. Rather, the master is the role
that results from deliberate configuration steps.
MaximumInformation
Rate
The cap applied to the bandwidth of an SM or specified group of SMs.
In the Cyclone implementation this is controlled by the Sustained
Uplink Data Rate, Uplink Burst Allocation, Sustained Downlink Data
Rate, and Downlink Burst Allocation parameters.
MediaAccessControl
Address
Hardware address that the factory assigns to the module for
identification in the Data Link layer interface of the Open Systems
Interconnection system. This address serves as an electronic serial
number.
MIB
Management Information Base. Space that allows a program (agent)
in the network to relay information to a network monitor about the
status of defined variables (objects).
MIR
See Maximum Information Rate.
MySQL
A registered trademark of MySQL AB Company in the United States,
the European Union, and other countries.
mysqladmin
A command to set the administrator and associated password on the
Bandwidth and Authentication Manager (BAM) server.
