Chapter 4. Basic Management 33
Chapter 4. Basic Management
This chapter describes how to configure and monitor the unit’s basic features. In most cases, configuring these
basic features is sufficient. A full overview of the Web Interface is provided in “Chapter 5. Using the Web
Interface”
on page 40. The “Glossary” in the Tsunami MP.11 Reference Manual provides a brief explanation of
the terms used. For CLI commands you can use for basic management, see “Command Line Interface“ in the
Tsunami MP.11 Reference Manual.
The following topics are discussed in this chapter:
• Rebooting and Resetting
below
• General Configuration Settings
on page 35
• Monitoring Settings
on page 36
• Security Settings
on page 36
• Default Settings
on page 37
• Upgrading the Unit
on page 39
To use the Web Interface for configuration and management, you must access the unit. With ScanTool you can
determine the unit’s current IP address. Then enter http://<ip address> in your Web browser (for example
http://10.0.0.1). See “Setting the IP Address”
on page 22 for details.
Note: If you have your Security Internet Options set to High, you may not be able to access the Web interface
successfully; a high security setting disables JavaScript, which is required for running Proxim’s Web
browser interface. Adding the unit’s IP address as a Trusted site should fix this problem.
The Web Interface consists of Web page buttons and tabs. A tab can also contain sub-tabs. The following figure
shows the convention used to guide you to the correct tab or sub-tab.
The Web Interface also provides online help, which is stored on your computer (see “Installing Documentation
and Software”
on page 16 for details).
REBOOTING AND RESETTING
All configuration changes require a restart unless otherwise stated. New features explicitly state whether a reboot
is required or not. You can restart the unit with the Reboot command; see the first method described in the
following sub-sections.
Most changes you make become effective only when the unit is rebooted. A reboot stores configuration
information in non-volatile memory and then restarts the unit with the new values (see “Soft Reset to Factory
Default”
on page 34).
In some cases, the unit reminds you that a reboot is required for a change to take effect. You need not reboot
immediately; you can reboot after you have made all your changes.
