Configuration Page

The Configuration web page contains information and configurable parameters pertaining to the
operation of the product. The first line of information on the Configuration screen is a repeat of the
Device Type from the Status web page. The following are the parameters and their descriptions.

Timing Mode: choose whether this module will be a timing master or a timing slave. If the
operator is changing this mode, change only this parameter, save the changes and reboot. Upon
reboot different set of web based interface pages will present themselves and offer the operator
different manageable as well as configurable features.

Link Negotiation Speeds: choose the type of link speed desired for the Ethernet connection. The
default for this parameter is for all the choices to be checked.

Custom RF Frequency Scan Selection (SM) List: choose the frequencies that the subscriber
module will scan when looking for access point modules. The default for this parameter is to scan
all available frequencies.

LAN1 IP: enter in the IP address that will be associated with the Ethernet connection on this
module. The default address is 169.254.1.1.

The radio buttons to the right of the IP address field offer the ability to make the LAN 1 IP either a
local or publicly accessible address. If the address is designated a local address it will only be
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 Canopy “default plug”. See steps to create and use
a default plug in the section on the Timing Master.

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
