Minimum System Requirements Computers with Windows, Macintosh, or Linux-based operating systems with an installed Ethernet Adapter Internet Explorer version 6.0 or Netscape Navigator version 7.0 and above Introduction The OUTDOOR BRIDGE covers a large operating distance, providing an 802.11a/b/g outdoor WLAN which enables users to access the Internet or an organization’s network. At up to five times the speed of previous wireless devices, you can work faster and more efficiently, increasing productivity.
Features and Benefits Features the benefit of Robust Outdoor Housing - Designed for harsh outdoor environments, with die-cast, watertight housing, built-in heater and temperature sensor High Performance Dual Radio usage for simultaneous operations of AP and Bridge for backhaul applications.
Four Operational Modes AP Mode AP Mode Wireless Eth WAN Port Internet Cable/ADSL Modem 9
Repeater Mode Repeater Mode Access Point Repeater1 Repeater2 Wireless Client Point to Point Mode Point to Point (P2P : Wireless Bridge) Mode Wired Network Wired Network LAN2 LAN1 L2 Switch L2 Switch P2P-1 P2P-2 10
Point to Multi Point Mode PMP ( Wireless Bridge) Mode Wired Network LAN2 L2 Switch Wired Network P2P-1 LAN1 Wired Network PMP LAN3 P2P-2 L2 Switch Using the Configuration Menu To configure the OUTDOOR BRIDGE, use a computer which is connected to the OUTDOOR BRIDGE with an Ethernet cable (see the Network Layout diagram). First, disable the Access the Internet using a proxy server function.
After the connection is established, you will see the user identification window as shown. Note: If you have changed the default IP address assigned to the OUTDOOR BRIDGE, make sure to enter the correct IP address. If you want to change setting, you will see the user identification window as shown.
Type admin in the User Name field Type default the Password field blank Click OK Note: If you have changed the password, make sure to enter the correct password.
LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal network. These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the OUTDOOR BRIDGE. These settings may be referred to as private settings. You may change the LAN IP address if needed. IP address: The default IP address is 192.168.2.254. Assign a static IP address that is within the IP address range of your network. IP netmask: Enter the subnet mask. All devices in the network must share the same subnet mask..
Mode: Bridge/AP Bridge/WDS Routing/AP Routing/WDS or Disable Wireless. Select Bridge/AP if you want to set wireless in AP mode. Speed: The speed are Auto, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 6Mbps, 9Mbps,11Mbps, 12Mbps, 18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps, 48Mbps, 54Mbps. Channel: You can select 1 of 3 country setting (US: Channel 1 ~ 11, ETSI: Channel 1 ~13, Japan: Channel 1 ~ 14 )(Note: Channel 14 only 802.11b mode). All devices on the network must share the same channel.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) to change the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This ensures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast, the previous WEP encryption implementations required the keys to be changed manually.
Set Encryption to Open System/Shared Key WEP auth method: Select Open System and Shared Key to communicate the key across the network. WEP mode: Select 64, 128 bits. Key Type: 64 bit support WEP password 10 bit HEX(Hexadecimal digits consist or the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F) code. 128 bit support WEP password 26 bit HEX code.( Note :Currently version does not support ASIC code.) Valid Key: Select one of the keys in the Key table to be the active key.
Point to Point Mode Setting Æ Wireless0 or Wireless1 Point to Point (P2P : Wireless Bridge) Mode Wired Network Wired Network LAN2 LAN1 L2 Switch L2 Switch P2P-1 P2P-2 PtP mode setting is like AP mode setting, but encryption only WEP encryption method can select. When wireless0 or wireless1 in PtP mode will also do AP function, suggest disable SSID broadcast(Pull down select “y” in hidden SSID to disable SSID broadcast) and set WEP encryption. e.g. P2P-1 Wireless0 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.
Point to Multi Point Mode Setting Æ Wireless0 or Wireless1 PMP ( Wireless Bridge) Mode Wired Network LAN2 L2 Switch Wired Network P2P-1 LAN1 Wired Network PMP LAN3 P2P-2 L2 Switch PtMP mode setting is like AP mode setting, but encryption only WEP encryption method can select. When wireless0 or wireless1 in PtMP mode will also do AP function, suggest disable SSID broadcast(Pull down select “y” in hidden SSID to disable SSID broadcast) and set WEP encryption. e.g PMP Wireless0 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.
WPA encryption. Pull down select “y” in hidden SSID to disable SSID broadcast. Set P2P-2 Wireless1 in AP/Bridge Mode, and type PMP Wireless1 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.06 in WDS macs fields. Then set channel the same as PMP Wireless1.Set WEP encryption the same as PMP Wireless1.Dsiable P2P-2 Wireless1 WPA encryption. Pull down select “y” in hidden SSID to disable SSID broadcast.
Repeater Mode Setting Æ Wireless0 or Wireless1 Repeater Mode Access Point Repeater1 Repeater2 Wireless Client Repeater mode setting is like AP mode setting, but encryption only WEP encryption method can select. e.g AP Wireless0 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.05 Wireless1 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.06 Repeater1 Wireless0 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.07 Wireless1 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.08 Repeater2 Wireless0 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.09 Wireless1 Mac: 00.01.02.03.04.
Dual Radio Setting For Simultaneous Operation AP and Bridge e.g. Wireless0 do AP Setting as page 11 and Wireless1 do Bridge setting as page 17 (PtP Setting) or page 18 (PtMP setting). Wireless0 and Wireless1 can do different Setting such as different channel and different Encryption AP and AP Wireless0 and Wireless1 do AP Setting as page 11. Wireless0 and Wireless1 can do different Setting such as different channel and different Encryption.
DHCP Server Setting Æ DHCP DHCP Server Control: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol assigns dynamic IP addresses to devices on the network. This protocol simplifies network management and allows new wireless devices to receive IP addresses automatically without the need to manually assign new IP addresses. Select Subnet on device IP(Such as 192.168.2.254) to allow the OUTDOOR BRIDGE to function as a DHCP server. start IP: Input the first IP address available for assignment in your network.
wins: Input wins server IP DHCP Clients show the client IP and client MAC setting. (e.g. If your device ip is 192.168.2.254, then start ip is 10 and end ip is 100. System will asign ip from 192.168.2.10 to 192.168.2.100 to client.) (Note: If you change any item, click “submit” to store the value. Or click “clear” to restore previous value. To make settings working click Submit-> Reset-> Restart.
