Ip Planning Process - WaveRider LMS4000 User Manual

• CAP-NAP backhaul equipment, if provisioned
• CAP and NAP UPS, if provisioned
• Ethernet switches
• SNMP manager, if provisioned
• Gateway (NAP) router Ethernet port
The number of CAPs is limited by the capacity of the gateway (NAP) router. WaveRider
suggests allocating a minimum of 256 addresses to the CCU Ethernet subnet, which
accommodates 15 CAPs and requires a 24-bit subnet mask.

IP Planning Process

For reference purposes, an example of an IP Plan is included in
Before you configure and operate your LMS4000 900 MHz Radio Network, you must define
your IP addressing scheme based upon the following guidelines and recommendations:
• WaveRider recommends that LMS4000 subnets use IP addresses that have been
reserved for private networks. WaveRider recommends 192.168.10.0 /24 for the CCU
Ethernet subnet, and 10.0.0.0 /22 for the CCU radio subnet, since these addresses
are quite distinct from each other. If you are already using 10.0.0.0 /22, then you can
alternatively use 172.16.0.0 /22.
• The IP addressing plan for the CCU Ethernet subnet should allow for growth to a
maximally equipped system, as follows:
•
•
•
For a 15-CAP system, set aside 251 IP addresses, which requires a subnet with a 24-
bit mask, for example 192.168.0.0 /24.
