Active Channel This will display the current active channel on which wireless
interface is operating. If you have enabled the auto channel
selection option or if the device moves to a different channel
because of radar detection, then this field displays the current
operating channel.
DDRS Status This parameter is displayed only when DDRS feature is enabled in
ADVANCED CONFIGURATION > Wireless > Interface 1 >
DDRS. For more details refer to DDRS.
Tx Rate This parameter represents the transmission data rate of the
device. Desired rate can be selected from the list of available Tx
rates.
NOTE: Configure the appropriate data rate based on
the signal level.
Network Name It is the name given to a network so that an End Point A and an
End Point B can mutually authenticate. End Point B can register to
End Point A, only if it has the same Network Name. The Network
Name can be 2 to 32 characters in length.
Ethernet IP Configuration
By default, the QuickBridge End Point is configured to operate in Bridge Mode. The parameters in this section
vary depending on the device’s operating mode, i.e., Bridge or Router. Because the QuickBridge is a
point-to-point system, Routing mode is not required for QuickBridge units. Configuring the unit in Routing
mode is not necessary.
IP Address Type • Select Static if you want to assign a static IP address to the
unit. Use this setting if you do not have a DHCP server or if you
want to manually configure the IP settings.
• Select Dynamic to have the device run in DHCP client mode,
which gets an IP address automatically from a DHCP server
over the network.
NOTE: The default Address Type is Static.
When the unit is in Bridge mode, only one IP address is required.
This IP address also can be changed with ScanTool (See Setting
the IP Address with ScanTool).
IP Address This parameter is configurable only if the IP Address Assignment
Type is set to Static. The default IP Address for End Point A is
169.254.128.132 and for End Point B is 169.254.128.131.
Subnet Mask The mask of the subnet to which the unit is connected (the
default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0). This parameter is
configurable only if the IP Address Assignment Type is set to
Static.
Gateway IP Address The IP address of the default gateway. This parameter is
configurable only if the IP Address Assignment Type is set to
Static. The default gateway IP Address is 169.254.128.132.
