Page 14: Connecting The Unit
Use a standard Category 5E straight through or crossover cable with a minimum length of one meter and a maximum length of 100 meters. N-Tron recommends the use of pre- manufactured Cat5E cables to ensure the best performance. If this is not an option and users must terminate their own ends on the Cat5E cables;... - Page 15 Some N-Tron switches have metal din-rail brackets that can ground the switch if the din-rail is grounded. In some cases, N-Tron devices with metal brackets can be supplied with optional plastic brackets if isolation is required.
- Page 16 ~ 2X. Verify that Link LED is ON for the connected port. Verify cabling used between stations. Verify that cabling is Category 5E or greater for 100Mbit operation. SUPPORT Contact N-Tron Corp. at: TEL: 251-342-2164 FAX: 251-342-6353 E-MAIL: N-TRON_Support@n-tron.com WEB: www.n-tron.com...

Page 18: Configuration Guide
Configuration Guide This guide presents the detailed description of the N-TRON 702-W operating system which is integrated into the N-TRON 702W. N-TRON 702-W Quick Setup Guide describes the configuration steps for the subscriber station (wireless client - bridge). All the configuration settings accessible via web management interface are described in this document. -
Page 19: System Info Page
System Info Page The System Info Page displays a summary of link status information, basic configuration settings of the device (operating mode, network settings), and traffic statistics of all the interfaces. Network administration and monitoring utilities such as antenna alignment, ping test, and speed test tools are accessible via System Info page also. -
Page 20: System Information
ACK Timeout: displays the current ACK Timeout value, which is set on the device manually or adjusted automatically. The ACK Timeout (Acknowledgment Timeout) specifies how long the N-TRON 702-W device should wait for an acknowledgment from a partner device confirming packet reception before concluding the packet must have been in error and requires resending. - Page 21 Host Name: displays the customizable name (ID) of the device as it will appear in popular Router Operating Systems registration screens. LAN MAC: displays the MAC address of the N-TRON 702-W device LAN (Ethernet) interface. LAN IP Address: displays the current IP address of the LAN (Ethernet) interface.
-
Page 22: Statistics Reporting
Statistics Reporting LAN Statistics: section displays the detailed receive and transmit statistics (Bytes, Packets, Errors) of the LAN (Ethernet) interface. These statistics represent the total amount of data and packets transferred between devices through the Ethernet interface from either direction. Both unicast IP traffic (conversations between two hosts using HTTP, SMTP, SSH and other protocols) and broadcast traffic (while addressing all hosts in a given network range with a single destination IP address) is accounted. -
Page 23: Extra Info
Bridge table shows to which bridge port the particular station is associated to - in other words from which interface (Ethernet or wireless ) the network device (defined by MAC address) is reachable to the N-TRON 702-W system while forwarding the packets to that port only (thus saving a lot of redundant copies and transmits). - Page 24 Active firewall entries in the FIREWALL chain of the standard iptables filter table are listed if the device is operating in Router mode. IP and MAC level access control and packet filtering in N-TRON 702-W is implemented using iptables (routing) and ebtables (bridging) firewall which protects the resources of a private network from outside threats by preventing unauthorized access and filtering specified types of network communication.

Page 25: Tools
The test is started using the Run Test button. Ping: This utility will ping other devices on the network directly from the N-TRON 702-W device. Ping utility should be used for the preliminary link quality and packet latency estimation between two network devices using the ICMP packets. - Page 26 TraceRoute: Allows tracing the hops from the N-TRON 702-W device to a selected outgoing IP address. It should be used for finding the route taken by ICMP packets across the network to the Destination host. Resolution of the IP addresses (symbolically rather than numerically) can be enabled by selecting the Resolve IP address option.

Wireless Mode: specify the operating mode of the device. The mode depends on the network topology requirements. There are 4 operating modes supported in N-TRON 702-W software: 1. Station: This is a client mode, which can connect to an AP. - Page 28 WDS Peers: WDS Stations and/or WDS Access Points connected to the 702-W Access Point should be specified in this list in order to create a wireless network infrastructure - Wireless Distribution System (applicable for AP WDS mode only). Enter the MAC address of the paired WDS device in the WDS Peer entry field. One MAC address should be specified for Point-to-Point connections.
- Page 29 IEEE 802.11 Mode: This is the radio standard used for operation of your N-TRON 702-W powered device. 802.11b is an older 2.4GHz mode while the 802.11g (2.4GHz) and 802.11a (5GHz) are newer standards based on faster Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation.

Access Point in order to get access to the network and all the user data transferred between subscriber station and Access Point will be encrypted if the wireless security methods are used. Security: N-TRON 702-W supports all popular 802.11 security options such as WEP, WPA, and WPA2. Select the security mode of your wireless network: WPA –... - Page 31 EAP – WPA™ or WPA2™ with EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) IEEE 802.1x authentication method. This method is commonly used in Enterprise networks. WPA Pre-shared Key: the pass phrase for WPA™ or WPA2™ security method should be specified if the Pre-shared Key method is selected. The pre-shared key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63 characters long.

3 packet filtering and access control in Router mode. Bridge Mode In bridge mode, the N-TRON 702-W will simply forward the network management and data packets to the client PC without any intelligent routing. For some applications, this can provide a more efficient and simple network solution. - Page 33 Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDU). STP should be turned off (selected by default) when the N-TRON 702-W device is the only bridge on the LAN or when there are no loops in the topology as there is no sense for the bridge to participate in the Spanning Tree Protocol in this case. Note that STP is only supported with WEP encryption.
