4.2 CHECK ACCESS

“ping” utility of Command Prompt is a handy tool to check the access to the A8Ein BTS.

1. Go to the Command Prompt by typing “cmd” in “Run”.

2. Type command:

ping 192.168.1.222 The A8Ein BTS shall respond to your ping request if A8Ein BTS and your PC have a

correct connection.

NOTE: Using the same PC to ping different A8Ein BTS may cause ping failure. This is because A8Ein BTS has the same default IP address but different MAC addresses. You need to type command “arp –d” in Command Prompt to clear ARP table on PC before each ping.

4.3 CONFIGURATION WITH WEB-ADMIN

The A8Ein can be accessed through a Web Browser, for example, Internet Explorer (IE).

1. Open an IE session and type the IP address of the A8Ein BTS. Example:

http://192.168.1.222 or https://192.168.1.222, where 192.168.1.222 is the A8Ein’s IP

address. The default IP Address is 192.168.1.222.

2. A window will pop up, as shown in Figure 5. Enter the user name and password in the

Figure 59 2.4G Radio Advanced setting

A8Ein provides advanced parameter setting, it would change A8Ein performance. Default setting is recommended.

Data Rate：Default setting is “best”. The transmission data rate that appears on the drop-down menu is dependent on the Wireless Mode specified. The numbered data rates denote fixed rates for

transmission. Beacon Interval：Default setting is 100 ms (equivalent to 10 beacons per second). The amount of

time between A8Ein BTS beacon transmissions for each supported BSS, with each BSS using the same beacon interval. The beacon interval can be configured between 20 and 1000 ms.

DTIM：Default setting is 1. DTIM Interval, always a multiple of the beacon period, determines how often the beacon contains a traffic indicator map (TIM). The TIM alerts clients in sleep state to stay

awake long enough to receive their data frames. The value range is from 1 to 255. Fragmentation Threshold：Default setting is 2346 bytes. The fragmentation threshold, specified

in bytes, determines whether data packets will be fragmented and at what size. Frames that are smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value will not be fragmented. Frames that are larger than the fragmentation threshold will be fragmented into smaller packets and transmitted a piece at a time instead of all at once. The setting must be within the range of 256 to 2346 bytes. It is recommended to use the default value or only minor reductions of this default value.

IGMP Snooping：AP is a Layer 2 device when it is configured as Switch mode. However, IGMP Snooping implementation on AP is a little bit different than that of standard Layer 2

Switch. Each Virtual AP (VAP) port is similar to a Layer 2 switch port. With IGMP Snooping enabled

in the AP, clients associated to a VAP will only receive multicast packets if there is at least one client joined the multicast group in that VAP. Unlike ordinary IGMP Snooping implementation, where Layer 2 switch converts multicast to unicast and delivers them to devices registered with the multicast group, AP should simply send out the multicast

Page 46

TPS12-016_rev1 1_A8Ein_web-admin_Configuration_Manual_-_fm_1 2 0 604 (for FCC & IC) 20130322.doc

packets from the VAP which has at least one client joined the multicast group. This is done because the wireless media is a broadcast media. It does not need to be sent multiple times when there are more than one registered clients.

When IGMP Snooping is turned on, multicast packets should be dropped at the VAP exit if there is no client from the VAP who has joined the corresponding multicast group.

The IGMP snooping forwarding table (port and multicast MAC address mapping table) should support aging mechanism to age out the entry which has no multicast traffic for a period of time (120 seconds in A8Ein).

The default setting of the IGMP Snooping is “Disabled”.。 Multicast Traffic：Default setting is "Enabled ". If set to "Enabled", the system allows multicast

traffic in all VAPs. If set to "Disabled", all multicast traffic in all VAPs will be dropped.

A8Ein supports “Multicast Traffic Data Rate Setting” to transmit all multicast traffic of the 2.4G interface at the configured multicast data rate. The multicast data rate must be set to any of the basic data rates. Default setting is 1 Mbps。
