The commands that you use depend on the type of radio that you are using.
Use the
/system/show phyinv
command to display the radio’s part number.
Backhaul Radios with Part Number B2CC033AA
This type of radio can form backhaul links only with other radios with the same
part number. As well, the radios do not need to have a Client and Access Point
relationship. However, the radio’s topology must be set to
p2p
.
With these types of radios, a wireless backhaul link (or association) can be
established between two backhaul radios if all the following conditions are met:
• Both are configured on the same channel. Refer to “Channel Number” on
page 37 for the appropriate command.
• Both are configured with the same link identifier.
The following command configures the radio for a basic 5 GHz (P-to-P) link
topology without privacy.
set brm<n> link identifier <lnk_id> topology p2p
The
<link_id>
parameter is case sensitive and can be up to 32 alphanumeric
characters. For P-to-P links, BelAir Networks recommends that the link
identifier describes the link; that is, the nodes it connects.
All Other Backhaul Radios
These types of radios have part numbers B2CC001AA, B2CC001AB,
B2CC034AA and B2CC034AB. They can form P-to-P backhaul links with any
other 5 GHz BelAir radio except those with part number B2CC033AA.
A wireless backhaul link (or association) can only be established between two
backhaul radios if all the following conditions are met:
• One of them is in Client mode and the other in Access Point (AP) mode.
Refer to “Radio Mode or Disabling a Radio” on page 35 for the appropriate
command.
• Both are configured on the same channel. Refer to “Channel Number” on
page 37 for the appropriate command.
• Both are configured with the same SSID. Refer to “Backhaul Radio Service
Set Identifiers” on page 48 for the appropriate command.
