•
confirm that the initial power setting is compliant with national or
regional regulations.
•
confirm that the power setting is compliant following any reset of the
module to factory defaults.
External Gain
This value needs to correspond to the published gain of the antenna
used to ensure the radio will meet regulatory requirements.
SM Receive Target
Level
See
Table 46 PMP 450m AP Radio attributes - 5 GHz
Adjacent Channel
Support
For some frequency bands and products, this setting is needed if AP is
operating on adjacent channels with zero guard band.
Multicast VC Data
Rate
This pull-down menu of the Multicast Data Control screen helps in
configuring multicast packets to be transmitted over a dedicated channel at
a configurable rate of 2X, 4X or 6X. The default value is “Disable”. If set to
the default value, all multicast packets are transmitted over the Broadcast
VC data path. This feature is available only for the PMP 450 Series and is not
backward compatible with PMP 430 series of radios.
Multicast Repeat
Count
This value is the number of packets that are repeated for every multicast VC
packet received on the AP (located under Radio tab of Configuration).
Multicast (like Broadcast) packets go over a VC that is shared by all SMs, so
there is no guaranteed delivery. The repeat count is an attempt to improve
the odds of the packets getting over the link. If the user has issues with
packets getting dropped, they can use this parameter to improve the
performance at the cost of the overall throughput possible on that channel.
The default value is
0
.
Multicast Downlink
CIR
This value is the committed information rate for the multicast downlink VC
(located under the Radio tab of Configuration). The default value is
0
kbps.
The range of this parameter is based on the number of repeat counts. The
higher the repeat count, the lower the range for the multicast downlink CIR.
SM Registration Limit
This parameter allows to configure the limit for maximum number of SMs
that can register to a PMP AP. The configurable range is from 1 to 238.
Note
SM trying to register after the maximum configured limit
has been reached is locked out for 15 minutes and a
message is displayed at the SM..
SM Registration
All: This field allows to control registration of all type 450 Platform Family
SM including 450 Series SM (450i/450b/450/430) or 450i Series SM.
450i Only: This field allows to control registration of 450i Series SM only
Control Message
Controls whether the control messages are sent in MIMO-B or MIMO-A
mode. MIMO-A is recommended. However, if an AP on 13.2 is attempting to
connect to an SM on 13.1.3 or before, changing to MIMO-B may aid in getting
the SM registered.
