PacketMax 5000 Installation and Operation Manual, 10007678 Rev J
Chapter 1. Overview Of Base Station
On the PM5000 BS, manually.
NOTE: Changing Management Port in VLAN requires MSC reboot.
On the SS, using the Installation Manager.
Please refer to Chapter 6 “Commissioning the Base Station”, for setting up Manage-
ment VLAN ID on the BS and refer to the PacketMax 100/300 User Manual for setting
up the Management VLAN ID on the SS.
Typically management port is used for sending/receiving management traffic (Ping/
TFTP/DHCP packets from/to BS or SS).
Figure 1-3 displays DHCP/TFTP over man-
agement port (a management interface set-up).

1.2.2.3 Inband Management with Management VLAN
The date/traffic are segmented by traffic VLANs and is implemented by the backhaul
ports (Inband management). This VLAN carries inbound traffic.
The Backhaul Interface can be either Fast Ethernet or Gigabit interfaces. Backhaul
port could be used for sending/receiving data traffic.
Figure 1-4 displays DHCP/TFTP
over backhaul port (a backhaul interface set-up).
