PMP 400/430 and PTP 200/230 Series Configuration and User Guide

Network Control Parameters

Parameters for High Priority/DiffServ, NAT, DHCP, VLAN, MIR, and CIR are configured the same as they
are in standard Canopy. The operator may (or may not) want to take advantage of the higher possible MIR
to provide greater bandwidth to a given SM.
MIR, CIR, High Priority, and VLAN parameters may also be managed via an external RADIUS server.

Forward Error Correction

PMP 400/430 and PTP 200 Series radios use FEC (Forward Error Correction) to extend the range of the
modules. They use Reed-Solomon error correction optimized at 3/4 coding. The coding rate is not settable
by the operator.

430 Interoperability (Configurable only on PMP 430 SM)

Radios running a system release newer than 12.2 includes an Interoperability feature ("Interop") which
allows PMP 430 SMs to register to PMP 450 APs. The feature is designed to allow the operator to swap the
PMP 430 AP with a PMP 450 AP on a PMP 430 network and then grow the network with additional PMP
450 SMs, or add a PMP 430 SM to an existing PMP 450 network to help fill an equipment gap.
PMP 430 SM will need to be configured to operate in interoperability mode (under the tab Configuration =>
Radio) using the "AP Registration Options" check boxes. See
Figure 31.
