FGR2-PE Wirelss Data Transceiver

LUM0024AB Rev A

Entering a hardware (MAC) address in the MAC Filter field and clicking Add
puts that MAC address into the MAC Filter list.

Selecting a MAC address in the MAC Filter list and clicking Delete removes
that address from the list.

Clicking Clear removes every entry in the MAC Filter list.

You can also clear the Mac filter list from the HyperTerminal Security menu.
Selection option 1 in the main Setup Menu to display the Security menu. From
the Security menu, option 0 clears the MAC Filter list, setting the transceiver
back to allowing all Ethernet traffic.

Peer To Peer

Web Parameter:

Peer To Peer in the Misc section of the Security page.

Network Type:

Both

Default Setting:

Disabled

Options:

Disabled, Enabled

Description:

Allows the Gateway to build a table of Ethernet devices connected over its
radio link. When the Gateway receives a packet over its radio link, it compares
the destination of that packet to its address table. If the destination is found in
the table, the Gateway re-transmits that packet over the radio instead of
applying it to the Ethernet port. If disabled, data the Gateway receives over the
radio link is always applied to the Ethernet port only.

RADIUS Enable

Note: This option is controlled from the Gateway only. It has no functionality on

Endpoints or MultiPoint Repeaters.

Web Parameter:

Enable RADIUS in the RADIUS Authentication Configuration section of the
Security page.

Network Type:

Both

Default Setting:

Disabled

Options:

Disabled, Enabled

Description:

Enables RADIUS authentication from the Endpoints or MultiPoints through the
Gateway.

Enabling RADIUS authentication on the Gateway requires all of its Endpoints
and MultiPoint Repeaters to authenticate to a central RADIUS server. The
RADIUS server must be connected to the same LAN segment the Gateway is
connected to.

The transceivers do not accept any authentication packets through their own
Ethernet port. If the transceiver cannot contact the RADIUS server, no
Ethernet traffic is sent across its Ethernet port. The configuration Web pages
can be accessed by connecting over the radio link through the Gateway. If the
transceivers are denied access by the RADIUS server, Ethernet traffic is
