•
Ethernet Port Status
—Allows enabling/disabling Ethernet traffic for security purposes. Setting it to
Follow Radio Link
on the Remote enables the port if there is a connection established with the AP, but
disables it otherwise. [AP:
Enabled, Disabled; Enabled
.
Remote:
Always On, Follow Radio Link, Dis-
abled; Always On
.]
•
Ethernet Rate Limit
—The transceiver will send alarms (SNMP traps) when the rate reaches 50%,
75%, and 100% to help identify potential problems with traffic.
[1 to 500000 iNET; 1 to 10000000

Ethernet Filtering Configuration Menu
(Figure 2-24)—This selection brings up a submenu for defin-
ing which Ethernet devices will be “listened to” for forwarding of data packets into the wireless net-
work. When
Ethernet Filtering
is enabled, only packets from listed Ethernet addresses will be
forwarded. Up to four addresses may be specified.
This feature—also known as
MAC Address Filtering
is typically used at Remote radios to guard
against unwanted traffic being forwarded into the wireless network.

Ethernet Link H/W Watch
(AP Only)
—Detects the lack of an Ethernet connection to the LAN port at
the electrical level (link integrity). The current AP will broadcast a beacon signal indicating its “NOT
AVAILABLE” status so Remotes that hear it do not try to associate to it. Once the Ethernet connec-
tion is restored, this beacon signal changes to “AVAILABLE” and Remotes are allowed to join in.

•
Ethernet Link Poll Address / 2
(AP Only)
—When an IP address is provided, the Access Point pings the
remote IP device every 60 seconds to test the integrity of the backhaul link. If this link is not avail-
able, the AP will advertise its “NOT AVAILABLE” status in the beacon signal so Remotes do not
try to associate to it. Once the IP address is reachable, this beacon signal changes to “AVAILABLE”
and Remotes are allowed to join in. 0.0.0.0 disables this function. Any other valid IP address enables
it. [
0.0.0.0
]
•
Ethernet Link Poll Logic
(AP Only)
—When both Ethernet Link Poll Address options are used, the AP
can monitor the two IP addresses separately or together. When using the OR logic, if the AP cannot
reach one of the two IP addresses configured, the beacon signal will stay broadcast “AVAILABLE”.
Only if both IP addresses cannot be reached will the beacon signal turn to “NOT AVAILABLE” until
at least one of the IP addresses responds. Using the AND logic, if one or both of the IP addresses are
no longer reachable, the beacon signal will change to “NOT AVAILABLE” until the connectivity
returns.
