Other Key Parameters

This section describes the remainder of the parameters listed on the System Information page. Most of these
parameters are the same for both APs and SUs.

Hardware Version: Hardware version is factory-set and cannot be changed by the user.

FPGA Version: Low-level field programmable gate array firmware currently loaded on the radio. Normally the
FPGA firmware will not require upgrading.

Firmware Version: Main firmware. In this example, the version part of the string is 0p1 (v0.1) , the hardware
code is H8005, and the remainder of the string is a date code.

Device ID: MAC address of the radio.

S/N: Serial number of the radio.

Telnetd Port: User changeable telnet port of radio.

TFTPd: Current status of TFTP daemon. Used for uploading firmware.

MIR Threshold: Enable/Disable the Maximum Information Rate (MIR) Threshold. The MIR Threshold is the
aggregate throughput on the AP at which the AP will start to enforce CIR rules for SUs.

Active Channel: The channel currently being used by the radio.

RFRX Threshold: Sets the receive threshold of the radio. The radio will not process signals received below this
level, so it is very useful for interference mitigation. For a smaller radius of operation use a higher threshold (-65 is
higher than -70).

Broadcast Packet: This software switch (0) enables/disables the blocking of Ethernet control packets, except
ICMP and ARP, to reduce the amount of unnecessary overhead introduced into the wireless link.

SU to SU Communication: If enabled (via switch 3), SUs with matching SU to SU groups (except group 0) can
communicate in peer-to-peer mode via the AP without the need for a router behind the AP.

TCP/IP Service for SU: If enabled, the AP can be accessed via TCP/IP (Telnet or HTTP) from the SU side of the
network via the wireless link.

Remarks: User definable radio information (i.e. customer name, address of installation, etc). A maximum of 28
characters can be stored.
