1.3.3. Network Management Tools
Airspan’s ASWipLL system provides comprehensive set of state-of-the-art, use-
friendly configuration and management tools for the ASWipLL system. These
management tools provide fault, configuration, performance, and security
management for the ASWipLL system.
The ASWipLL system provides the following management tools:
WipManage™:
Windows-based program, functioning as the ASWipLL
network (element) management system (NMS) providing fault, configuration,
performance, and security management.
WipManage is based on Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP),
providing both local and remote network management through SNMP Get, Set,
and Trap commands.
WipConfig™:
Windows-based program, providing serial initial configuration
(e.g. IP addresses) of the ASWipLL devices, used typically at the factory, or
during installation. WipConfig also provides received signal strength indication
(RSSI) for subscriber radios allowing accurate device orientation and positioning
for optimal reception with Base Station. In addition, WipConfig provides a
license-dependant Spectrum Analyzer that scans a user-defined frequency range,
measuring RSSI values for each frequency, and therefore, allowing the operator
to choose “clean” frequencies for operating the ASWipLL system.
WipConfig PDA™:
designed to run on a personal digital assistant (PDA),
providing an alternative tool to WipConfig (described above) for performing
initial configuration.
WipAD™:
Windows-based program, providing quick-and-easy automatic
simultaneous downloading of software version files to multiple ASWipLL
devices.
