Rapid path
: Check this box to enable the Rapid path feature.
This feature is designed for networks where packet source and destination is changing
from an uplink/downlink perspective. With Rapid Path enabled, the RDL-3000 system
quickly adapts its classification and switching engines to manage these changes.

on
system will respond to changes in traffic flow.
This feature is can be employed where hosts/CPEs connect to the network using one of
several available remote terminals and for redundancy scenarios:
Ring Redundancy: An RDL-3000 system (typically PTP) is deployed as a
segment in a redundant ring where alternative data paths are provided. A failure
on the primary path may result in reversed traffic flow through the ring (from the
RDL-3000 perspective).
Redundant Remote Terminals: Two co-located RDL-3000 wireless terminals
communicating with the same base station and network path convergence is
controlled by one of several available switching protocols (e.g. PRP or RSTP).
Redundant Base Station: Rapid Path introduces enhanced functionality to the
Redundant base Station solution that transitions packet switching from the
master to the slave sector controller within seconds of a failover event. It is
recommended to always deploy Rapid Path with the Base Station Redundancy
solution.

main menu to display the RADIUS Configuration screen. Support includes RADIUS-
based two-factor user-
management authentication (e.g., RSA’s SecureID platform).

The following fields are provided for configuring the RADIUS server:
Server Enable
: Control the RADIUS server mode.

( ):.Do not use the RADIUS server for user authentication. This unit
uses only local user authentication (Utilities->
Enabled
( ): Use the RADIUS server for user authentication.
Server IP Address
: RADIUS server IP address.
Server Auth-port
: Listening port address on RADIUS server (default port is 1812).
