Product Manual
accessible via the host computer (network) that is connected to the module via the Ethernet
cable.
If the address is designated a public address it will be accessible network-wide. The default for
this
feature is for the address to be local. If the IP address is forgotten, the operator will need
physical
access to the module and will need to create a Stinger “default plug”. See steps at the end of
this
section for creation and use of a default
plug.
LAN1 Subnet Mask: enter in an appropriate subnet mask for the module to “talk” on the
network.
The default value for this parameter is
255.255.255.0
Default
Gateway:
enter in an appropriate gateway address for the module. The default value
for
this parameter is
169.254.0.0.
Color Code: enter in a value (0-254). The color code on the subscriber module and the
access
point module must match in order for registration to occur. Color code is not a security feature.
It
is a means for the Stinger System operator to segregate an individual network or
neighboring
Stinger networks. Also, color code can be used to force a subscriber module to only register to
a
specific access point module even though the subscriber module may be able to see
multiple
access point modules. The default value for this parameter is 0 on all Stinger
modules.
Display-Only Password:
enter the same password in both fields for verification. The
display-only
password, when used, will allow only view activities to the module. When the
display-only password
is set and not the full-access password, the display-only password will be tied to
telnet
and FTP
sessions to the module. If the full-access password is also set then it has precedence
on
the telnet
and FTP sessions. If the password is forgotten, the operator will need physical access
to
the module and will need to create a Stinger “default plug” to override the unit. See steps at end
of
section for use and creation of a default
plug.
Full-Access Password:
enter the same password in both fields for verification. The
full-access
password, when used, will allow view and change activities to the module. When the
full-access
password is set, the password will also be tied to telnet and FTP sessions to the module.
When
prompted for the password via the web-based interface, there is no username required;
however
when prompted for the password via a telnet or FTP session, the user that MUST be used is
“root”.
If the password is forgotten, the operator will need physical access to the module and will need
to
create a Stinger “default plug” to override the unit. See steps at end of this section for use of
a
default
plug.
Webpage Auto
Update:
enter time period (in seconds) desired to have the web browser
refresh
the web-based interface. The default setting is 0, which will cause the web-based interface
to
never
refresh.
SM Power Up Mode with No 802.3
Link:
choose which mode the module will default to
when
there
is no Ethernet connection sensed by the module. There are two modes available, the first
is
Alignment mode and the second is Operational mode. See Alignment section for more
information.
Operational Mode is the default
setting.
Bridge Timeout Entry:
choose the appropriate bridge timeout for correct network operation
with
existing network
infrastructure.
Authorization
Key: each module ships with a unique, pre-programmed authorization key that is
to
be utilized when an operator configures the Stinger System for DES encryption of the over the
air
link. The default key is permanently stored on the
module.
Site Name: enter information relating to a name given to the physical module. This parameter
will
