6.6.1 Pass-Through
Configuration
This procedure is to aid configuring point-to-multipoint (PMP) operation on AN-50 and AN-
50e systems. For complete installation and operational procedures. refer to the
AN-50e
System User Manual
, the
AN-30e/AN-50e Quick Install Guide,
and the
Redline BFW
Installation Guidelines
provided on CD-ROM.
The VLAN tagging feature allows the user to configure and operate an AN-50e
deployment as a VLAN-aware wireless switch. A 'group' is created at the sector controller
for each VLAN to be transported, and 'connections' are added to enable data flow with
any subscriber station participating in that VLAN. If VLAN is not required, a default group
and set of connections must be setup to define the traffic characteristics. Prior to
completing this setup, no Ethernet data traffic can be transmitted over the wireless
interface.
The procedures provided below include steps to setup a basic working configuration for
initial testing, and then to introduce VLAN traffic controls.
6.6.2 Configure Pass-Through Operation
For initial installation and testing, it is recommended to setup a PMP configuration without
