User's Manual

direct:
Both units are configured with the separate IP addresses but with the same Netmask,
Gateway and the Management VLAN. IP addresses of both units must belong in
to the same sub-net. There is no need for Internal VLAN to handle the internal service
traffic between both units of the microwave link. No additional internal service ad-
dresses exist.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended to use Management VLAN to encapsulate and
prioritize the management traffic when the direct mode is selected. If the Management
VLAN is not used (while in direct mode), the internal service traffic is NOT prioritized.
Service IP address, by default 192.168.169.169 for L unit and 192.168.169.170 for U
unit. Four addresses 169.254.173.236/30 are used for internal communication. Must

not be used as service IP address. Those four addresses are not used while Service
channel is set to direct mode.

IP address
For easier identification of service IP address, RAy is equipped with LLDP protocol. This
protocol sends a broadcast every 60 seconds with the following information:
IP addressManagement address
Serial numberSystem Description
Type (e.g. RAY2-17-L)Chassis Subtype
IEEE 802.1 - Port and Protocol VLAN ID
Port and Protocol VLAN Identifier: (e.g. 300 (0x012C))
but only if Management VLAN is enabled
The message can be recorded and converted into a readable form using an LLDP client.
A suitable tool for this purpose is Wireshark IP traffic analyzing tool, with free licenses
available for both Windows and Linux. To locate the message easily, use the Capture
filter "ether proto 0x88cc” in Wireshark.
Management address of the Peer station. This address has to be set up when the
Service channel is set to direct mode.

Mask for service access, 24 by default.Netmask
Default gateway for service access; empty by default.Gateway
Enables access via VLAN management. Blocks access for https, ssh and telnet con-
figuration via untagged packets (without VLAN) making only VLAN access possible.
VLAN management is off by default.
WARNING:
By enabling VLAN management, ALL accesses are blocked for configuration using
normal (untagged) LAN! During tests, you may enable VLAN management on one
Management
VLAN
unit only (if the Service channel = standard). Then it is possible to access the link via
LAN and VLAN either directly or via radio link.
VLAN management id, by default 1. This field must have a value entered even when
VLAN management is not active.
