III.Point-to-Point configuration
In our point-to-point configuration example we will built a simple network as
shown in Figure 19.
Figure 19. Sample network (PtP connection)
Here we will set up a connection between two PC/Laptops.
All configuration samples and notes will use IP-addresses and names
as specified in Figure 19.

Routers configuration
1. Choose one of the routers to be CPE and the other one to be BS.
2. Provide connectivity from PC1 to CPE and PC2 to BS following the procedure
described in “Getting access to the router”. As a result you should make sure
that you can ping/telnet CPE from PC1 and ping/telnet from PC2
3. Now we will proceed to routers configuration. From PC1 enter CPE router
using Telnet (Start->Run: “
telnet 9.1.8.1
”) and from PC2 enter BS router
(“
telnet 9.2.8.1
”)
4. On BS: configure desired frequency (e.g. “
rf rf4.0 freq 5300
”). Configure
SID (system identifier) - system identifier of the router, a hexadecimal number in
the range of 1H to FFFFFFH. All routers that are supposed to see each other on
the same radio link must have the same identifier – for example:
rf rf4.0 sid 20202020
5. On CPE: obtain its MAC-address for radio interface. In order to do that type:
“
ifc <IF-NAME>
”. IF-NAME – name of the radio interface. For example,
“
ifc rf4.0
”. See Figure 20.
Figure 20. Obtaining CPE MAC-address
6. On BS: using
rma
command configure the CPE. The command looks as
follows:
rma ab <IF-NAME> <MAC> ip=<IP> name=<NAME>
•
IF-NAME –
name of the radio interface (e.g.
rf4.0
)
•
MAC
– MAC-address of the configured CPE (see step 5)
•
ip
– IP-address for the radio interface with THIS CPE as viewed from the
Base Station. For example, you set up
10.10.10.1
IP-address for the
CPE. Once CPE is registered at the Base Station, the BS will
automatically
assign IP-address to CPE radio interface with the BS. In
our example, it will be
10.10.10.2
address – a connection of BS with
EACH CPE is described as a sub-network with mask length 30 – that
means that
10.10.10.3
would become a broadcast address.
