Modulation Reduction Level
: Enter the number of modulation/coding levels to step
down during re-transmission of errored wireless packets. Each step down lowers the
UBR. The level can be set from 0 to 7 (recommended value = 2).
Uncoded
Burst Rate [Mb/s]
: Select the desired UBR for the link. If Adaptive
Modulation is disabled, the AN-80i will transmit using only the specified settings. See
Table 4
:
Web - Max. Power (in dBm) and Modulation.
Channel Width [MHz]
: Select the channel bandwidth. Refer to Table 46: Spec. -
Regional Identification Codes on page 90 for available channel widths.
Ethernet Follows Wireless
: Check this box to have the AN-80i disable and enable the
Ethernet port function based on the status of the wireless interface. This feature allows
switches and routers to trigger configuration changes based on changes to the AN-80i
Ethernet port status.
Disabled ( ): The AN-80i Ethernet port is always enabled.
Enabled ( ): The Ethernet port is controlled based on the status of the wireless
interface. See the following table.

Important
: The
Ethernet Follows Wireless
setting affects all data and management traffic
(HTTP, TELNET, and SNMP). While activated, it is not possible to manage the AN-80i
using the Ethernet port.
Ethernet follows wireless timeout [sec]
: Enter the period (in seconds) the Ethernet port
will remain disabled following loss of connectivity on the wireless interface. Following
this interval, the Ethernet port will be automatically re-enabled to allow management of
the AN-80i.
Important
: When
Ethernet Follows Wireless Timeout
is enabled, external switches/routers
monitoring the Ethernet port must be programmed to not switch automatically when
the Ethernet port function is restored -- the wireless interface may not be operational.
System Mode
: Set the operating mode for each AN-80i system.
PTP Master
: This unit begins transmitting automatically; sends poll messages to the
remote AN-80i, and negotiates the wireless link.
PTP Slave
: This unit waits passively, monitoring the selected channel(s) until polled
by the PTP Master, and participates in negotiating the wireless link.
Software Version
: Select the version of system software to load when the AN-80i is
rebooted. The system holds two independent software images.
Encryption Type
: Select an encryption type for data transmitted over the wireless
interface. When encryption is enabled, no Ethernet packets can be transferred over-the-air
unless encryption is enabled on the remote-end AN-80i, and the correct Encryption Key
is entered on both AN-80i units.
