When CPE registers at the BS it is automatically assigned an IP-address next
to that from the BS side. In our case BS has
10.10.10.1
IP-address for RF
interface with the CPE and CPE in its turn has
10.10.10.2
for the RF
connection. See Figure 21: it says “
10.10.10.1->2
”. Figure 24 shows ping
result from BS to CPE.

Pinging from CPE to BS via radio
The idea stays the same. From CPE we should use BS’s IP-address for the RF
connection. See Figure 25.

Providing PC/LAN connectivity
Once radios “see” each other we need to make our LAN/PC/Laptop “see” each
other also. The best thing that should be done in the first turn is to turn on
dynamic routing on both of the devices. InfiNet Wireless Router supports two
types of routing: static routing (using
route add
command) and dynamic
routing using RIP v1 and v2 (command
rip
– Routing Information Protocol).
In order to turn RIP on, on both BS and CPE, type:
rip start
. This will start
dynamic routing and will force the routers with RIP turned on to exchange their
routing tables with each other. The exchange is performed approximately every
30 seconds.
On the Figure 26 Routing tables are shown (use
net –r
command) to make sure
that RIP protocol has already exchanged the routing tables with the remote.
