• NAME – CPE’s mnemonic name.
In our sample network this configuration string will look as follows:
rma ab rf4.0 00028ae1dd13 ip=10.10.10.1 name=CPE
VERY IMPORTANT! ETHERNET IP-ADDRESS AND IP-ADDRESS FOR
RADIO INTERFACE MUST BE IN DIFFERENT NETWORKS
This warning is very important. That means that if you have 10.10.10.1/24
address on the Ethernet interface you cannot have any of 10.10.10.0/24
addresses on your radio interface.
7. On BS: type “rma start”. This will run Routed Multiple Access Protocol. From
this moment BS will wait for the configured CPEs (in our case it’s only one CPE)
for the registration request.
8. On CPE: we need to configure our BS for this CPE. “rma bs” command is
used for this purpose. Generally, each CPE can be configured for several BS. But
in our example we have only one BS to establish a PTP link. The syntax for BS
configuring is the following:
rma bs <IF-NAME> SID/[MINSPEED/]SPEED <FREQ-LIST>
• <IF-NAME> - radio interface name (e.g. rf4.0)
• SID – System identifier of the BS you want to connect to. In our case it
will be 20202020 (see step 4)
• MINSPEED – if autobitrate mechanism is used (see below) this value
will set the minimal value for the bitrate. This parameter is optional. If
skipped, the lowest available bitrate will be used
• SPEED – BS requested connection speed. This speed should not be
higher than maximal available bitrate for the CPE (see capabilities of the
router). If auotbitrate is not set, BS will work with CPE on this speed.
If autobitrate is set, BS will transmit on the highest reachable (and
available) bitrate and CPE will transmit on highest reachable speed but
not higher than SPEED value
• FREQ-LIST – list of frequencies on which the BS should be searched. It
can be one or several frequencies.
In our example the most evident thing that we must write is:
rma rf4.0 20202020/24000 5300
9. On CPE: type “rma start”. This will start Routed Multiple Access Protocol for
the CPE and it will immediately start “searching” for the configured BS by
sending registration requests.
10. On BS: turn on polling mode on. Polling mode (Wireless Marker Access) is
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to be used in ALL cases as well as RMA protocol.
In order to turn polling on, please type:
rma <IF-NAME> poll
In our case, rma rf4.0 poll
Polling mode is turned on ONLY for the Base Station. This will include
ALL Base Station’s CPEs into the polling circleйо!
12. Do not forget to save the configuration using “co sa” command on both CPE
and BS
