AirRouter User Guide

Traffic Shaping

Wireless Traffic shaping is dedicated to upstream and 
downstream bandwidth control while looking from the 
client (connected on the Ethernet interface) perspective.
The traffic can be limited at the AirRouter in the upload 
and download direction based on a user defined rate limit. 
This is layer 3 QoS.

Enable Traffic Shaping 

This option will enable 

bandwidth control on the device.
• 

Incoming Traffic Limit 

Specify the maximum 

bandwidth value (in kilobits per second, Kbps) for traffic 
passing from the wireless interface to the Ethernet 
interface.

• 

Incoming Traffic Burst 

Specify the data volume (in 

kilobytes) to which the Incoming Traffic Limit will not be 
effective afterwards data connection is initiated.

• 

Outgoing Traffic Limit 

Specify the maximum 

bandwidth value (in kilobits per second, Kbps) for traffic 
passing from the Ethernet interface to the wireless 
interface.

• 

Outgoing Traffic Burst 

Specify the data volume (in 

kilobytes) to which the Outgoing Traffic Limit will not be 
effective after data connection is initiated.

Services

The Services tab covers the configuration of system 
management services SNMP, SSH, System Log and Ping 
Watchdog.

Ping Watchdog

Ping Watchdog sets the AirRouter to continuously ping 
a user defined IP address (it can be the Internet gateway 
for example). If it is unable to ping under the user defined 
constraints, the AirRouter will automatically reboot. This 
option creates a kind of “fail-proof” mechanism.
Ping Watchdog is dedicated for continuous monitoring 
of the particular connection to remote host using the 
Ping tool. The Ping works by sending ICMP “echo request” 
packets to the target host and listening for ICMP “echo 
response” replies. If the defined number of replies is not 
received, the tool reboots the device.

Enable Ping Watchdog 

Enables the Ping Watchdog tool.

• 

IP Address To Ping 

Specify the IP address of the target 

host which to be monitored by the Ping Watchdog tool.

• 

Ping Interval 

Specify time interval (in seconds) 

between the ICMP “echo requests” are sent by the Ping 
Watchdog Tool. The default value is 300 seconds.

• 

Startup Delay 

Specify initial time delay (in seconds) 

until the first ICMP echo requests are sent by the Ping 
Watchdog tool. The default value is 300 seconds.
The value of Startup Delay should be at least 60 seconds 
as the network interface and wireless connection 
initialization takes a considerable amount of time if the 
device is rebooted.

• 

Failure Count to Reboot 

Specify the number of ICMP 

echo response replies. If the specified number of ICMP 
echo response packets is not received continuously, the 
Ping Watchdog tool will reboot the device. The default 
value is 3.

SNMP Agent

Simple Network Monitor Protocol (SNMP) is used 
in network management systems to monitor 
network-attached devices for conditions that warrant 
administrative attention. The AirRouter contains an SNMP 
agent which allows it to communicate to SNMP manage 
applications for network provisioning.
