Table 6: Notes first discussed with Release 9.5

Discussion and Recommendations
Microsoft Vista and Windows 7 will not route a 169.254/16 subnet used as
the default Canopy subnet since these operating systems use 169.254/16
subnet to talk between local machines. This is not an issue if:
- the PC is connected directly to the NATed SM.
- the NAT/routing CPE underneath the NATed SM provides DNS services.
However; if a NAT/routing CPE that is not providing DNS services (e.g.
some home routers) is placed between the SM and the user's PC, a
Microsoft Vista or Windows 7 machine will not route to the default
169.254/16 SM IP address space to access DNS services.
Workaround: Reconfigure the SMs NAT LAN address to a private IP
address such as 192.168/16, 172.16/12, or 10/8 or leave DNS Server
Proxy disabled.
To flip-flop the read/write and read-only community string names, it is
necessary to change one community string to a temp name first before
switching community string names.
Remote AP receives sync from SM by setting SYNC Input to Timing Port.
However, if this is incorrectly configured as SYNC input to Power port the
Remote AP will still correctly receive SYNC.
When optimizing a system for broadcast video, on the AP's Configuration
=> General page configure Prioritized TCP ACK to Disabled.
In a system being used for internet access or similar applications
prioritizing TCP ACKs improves downloading of FTP files and other
activities making significant use of TCP ACKs under heavy load. However,
in a system being used for broadcast video or video surveillance,
prioritizing TCP ACKs can cause sporadic choppy video in the uplink.
When the SpectrumAnalysis.xml button is clicked on the SM's Tools >
Spectrum Analyzer tab or the AP's Tools > Remote Spectrum Analyzer
tab, the spectrum graph is redisplayed using XML and XSL if the browser
supports XSL. To save the underlying XML file, right click and select "Save
Target As" on a Windows PC, or equivalent action for other operating
systems.
If you make frequency changes on the SM GUI, and then back them out
using SNMP, the Reboot Required message remains on the GUI.
Workaround:
If it says Reboot Required, go ahead and reboot, just to clear the
message.
