attacks. Over the air security is achieved through a proprietary scrambling mechanism that cannot be disabled,
spoofed or snooped by commercial tools. If further security is required the user is now able to optionally
augment the existing high security by encoding the air interface using AES.
How is the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) enabled? The AES facility is enabled by the user obtaining a
license key from Motorola. Entering the key will turn on the AES option from which the user will be able to
turn on AES. The default setting for AES is off.
How do I manage the 45 Mbps Backhaul? The 45 Mbps Backhaul has a built-in web server. At installation, the
unit is configured with an IP address so that the web server can then be accessed from any browser equipped
terminal. For security, access can be password protected, meaning only the network administrator can access the
web based management tools. SNMP V1/V2 is also available and the unit can be configured to send traps or
email notifications via SMTP.
Can I use Apple Macintosh OS X to control and monitor my 45 Mbps Backhaul? Yes, but there are some
restrictions. Mozilla 1.6 is recommended. There are some issues with Internet Explorer 5.2(IE) and Safari,
which could mislead the user.
How will my investment be protected as new features are developed? Future enhancements can be downloaded
to the unit, meaning advances in technology or changes in regulations can quickly be applied to the system
without any further hardware investment.
