Configuration MeshMAX 5054 Series User Guide

Configuring the Subscriber Module

SNMP Configuration Settings

• SNMP Interface Bitmask: Configure the interface or interfaces (All Interfaces, Only Ethernet, Only Slot A, None)

from which you will manage the unit using SNMP. You also can select Disabled to prevent a user from accessing the

unit through SNMP.

HTTP Configuration Settings

• HTTP Interface Bitmask: Configure the interface or interfaces (All Interfaces, Only Ethernet, Only Slot A, None)

from which you will manage the unit through the Web interface. For example, to allow Web configuration through the

Ethernet network only, set HTTP Interface Bitmask to Ethernet. You can also select Disabled to prevent a user from

accessing the unit from the Web interface.

• HTTP Port: Configure the HTTP port from which you will manage the unit through the Web interface. By default, the

HTTP port is 80.

• HTTP Connections: The number of allowed HTTP connections (the maximum is 8).

Telnet Configuration Settings

NOTE: To use HyperTerminal for CLI access, make sure to check “Send line ends with line feeds” in the ASCII Setup

window (in the HyperTerminal window, click Properties; then select Setup > ASCII Setup. See “HyperTerminal

Connection Properties” in the MeshMAX 5054 Subscriber Unit/Tsunami MP.11/QB.11 Reference Manual for more

information).

• Telnet Interface Bitmask: Select the interface (Ethernet, Wireless, All Interfaces) from which you can manage the

unit through telnet. This parameter can also be used to disable telnet management.

• Telnet Port Number: The default port number for Telnet applications is 23. However, you can use this field if you want

to change the Telnet port for security reasons (but your Telnet application also must support the new port number you

select).

• Telnet Login Timeout (seconds): Enter the number of seconds the system is to wait for a login attempt. The unit

terminates the session when it times out. The range is 1 to 300 seconds; the default is 30 seconds.

• Telnet Session Timeout (seconds): Enter the number of seconds the system is to wait during a session while there is

no activity. The unit ends the session upon timeout. The range is 1 to 36000 seconds; the default is 900 seconds.

• Telnet Connections: The number of allowed Telnet connections (the maximum is 8).

Serial Configuration Settings

The serial port interface on the unit is enabled at all times. See “Serial Port” in the MeshMAX 5054 Subscriber

Unit/Tsunami MP.11/QB.11 Reference Manual for information about how to access the CLI interface through the serial

port. You can configure and view following parameters:

• Serial Baud Rate: Select the serial port speed (bits per second). Choose between 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400,

or 57600; the default Baud Rate is 9600.

• Serial Flow Control: Select either None (default) or Xon/Xoff (software controlled) data flow control. To avoid

potential problems when communicating with the unit through the serial port, Proxim recommends that you leave the

Flow Control setting at None (the default value).

• Serial Data Bits: This is a read-only field and displays the number of data bits used in serial communication (8 data

bits by default).

• Serial Parity:

This is a read-only field and displays the number of parity bits used in serial communication (no parity

bits by default).

• Serial Stop Bits: This is a read-only field that displays the number of stop bits used in serial communication (1 stop

bit by default).

The serial port bit configuration is commonly referred to as 8N1.
