1: Introduction
• DHCP Client enabled (factory default)- The EUM3005 can obtain its IP address,
subnet mask and IP gateway information from a DHCP server, reducing the amount of
configuration needed for installation. This also allows the Network Operator to re-
assign IP addresses to EUMs without having to access the EUM itself.
• Automatic CCU Discovery (factory default) - The EUM3005 searches the full RF
frequency range to locate CCUs. It then selects the CCU with the best RF signal that
allows it to register. With this and DCHP Client enabled (factory defaults), the installer
does not need to enter ANY configuration parameters into the EUM3005 in order to
install it.
• Automatic Remote Configuration - The EUM3005 will accept parameters from a
RADIUS server to set other configurable parameters in the modem. These
parameters include: password, all SNMP parameters, RF Frequency (including
enabling Automatic CCU Discovery), and number of customers. To use this feature,
the CCU must use software version V6.0 or later.
• Installation Tools - The EUM3005 has a SETUP Menu to make installation and
alignment easy and error-free. The EUM3005 supports the local link IP address,
169.254.10.250, on its Ethernet port at all times. Using the local-link address, the user
can use the password “setup” to call up the setup menu that allows any user to check
the RF link quality to help align the EUM3005 and troubleshoot the link. This avoids
needing to know the IP address and password of the modem.
Detailed specifications for the EUM3005 can be found on the WaveRider website.
1.3 EUM3005 - End-user Modem or Customer Premises
Equipment
The EUM3005, shown in Figure 1, is an indoor wireless modem that connects to the end-
user’s computer through an Ethernet connection. It is installed indoors at the end-user’s
premises and provides an interface to the customer’s computer or local area network on one
side and wireless access to the LMS4000 network on the other
The EUM3005, which acts as a network bridge, receives data from the CCU (Communication
Access Point Channel Unit = base station) over the 900 MHz radio link, and then forwards this
data to EUM3005 internal processes or to the end-user’s computer through the Ethernet port.
In the other direction, the EUM3005 forwards data received from the end-user’s computer over
the radio link to the CCU
