AP Management

The TranSphere TS Wireless AP embedded Management System (MS) is accessible through
various data interfaces. These include the COM1 (serial) port, LAN (Ethernet) port, and
SNMP. Essentially the same capabilities are available through any of these paths.

For SNMP management, the transceiver is compatible with NETview MS™ software.

PC-Based Configuration Software

The Remote Access Manager Application (Part Number 06-4490A01) makes it possible to
authenticate all Access Points and associated Remotes from a PC, without having to update
individual radios. The software maintains a Master Approved Remotes List, and all
participating access points are synchronized with this list.

If a PC is connected to a Remote radio while the Remote is asleep, the PC does not enable
its Ethernet adapter, as it believes the port is disconnected. Also, if a PC is connected to a
Remote and the radio goes to sleep, the PC goes into a “port disconnected” state. The PC
must be properly configured to avoid these situations.

The commands for Remote radios are presented separately in chapter 4, Remote Radio
Management

.

NOTE: Any parameter options, ranges, or default values are displayed at the end of the field
