WiMAX WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is the IEEE 802.16 wireless networking standard, which provides high-bandwidth, wide-range...
Page 70 Chapter 6 WiMAX WiMAX technology uses radio signals (around 2 to 10 GHz) to connect subscriber stations and mobile stations to local base stations. Numerous subscriber stations and mobile stations connect to the network through a single base station (BS), as in the following figure.
Page 71 Chapter 6 WiMAX Frequency Ranges The following figure shows the MAX208M2W Series searching a range of frequencies to find a connection to a base station. Figure 22 Frequency Ranges In this figure, A is the WiMAX frequency range. “WiMAX frequency range” refers to the entire range of frequencies the MAX208M2W Series is capable of using to transmit and receive (see the Product Specifications appendix for details).

H A P T E R Network Setting 7.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to configure the MAX208M2W Series’s network setting. 7.1.1 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. IP Address IP addresses identify individual devices on a network.
Page 92 Chapter 7 Network Setting DNS Server Address DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it. The DNS server addresses that you enter in the DHCP setup are passed to the client machines along with the assigned IP address and subnet mask.
Page 93 Chapter 7 Network Setting The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the MAX208M2W Series sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.
Page 94 Chapter 7 Network Setting Trigger Ports Some services use a dedicated range of ports on the client side and a dedicated range of ports on the server side. With regular port forwarding you set a forwarding port in NAT to forward a service (coming in from the server on the WAN) to the IP address of a computer on the client side (LAN).
Page 95 Chapter 7 Network Setting NAT Traversal UPnP NAT traversal automates the process of allowing an application to operate through NAT. UPnP network devices can automatically configure network addressing, announce their presence in the network to other UPnP devices and enable exchange of simple product and service descriptions.

H A P T E R Maintenance 12.1 Overview Use these screens to manage and maintain your MAX208M2W Series. 12.1.1 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. Remote Management Limitations Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when: You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.
Page 164 Chapter 12 Maintenance Remote Management and NAT When NAT is enabled: • Use the MAX208M2W Series’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. • Use the MAX208M2W Series’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN. System Timeout There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes. The MAX208M2W Series automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for longer than this timeout period.
Page 165 Chapter 12 Maintenance TR-069 TR-069 is an abbreviation of “Technical Reference 069”, a protocol designed to facilitate the remote management of Customer Premise Equipement (CPE), such as the MAX208M2W Series. It can be managed over a WAN by means of an Auto Configuration Server (ACS).
Page 166 Chapter 12 Maintenance SNMP An SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager.

Chapter 14 Product Specifications 14.1 Wall-Mounting This section shows you how to mount your MAX208M2W Series on a wall using the ZyXEL Wall-Mounting kit (not included). 14.1.1 The Wall-Mounting Kit The wall-mounting kit contains the following parts: Two Mortar Plugs (M4*L30 mm) Two Screws (M4*L30 mm) Wall-Mounting Chassis If any parts are missing, contact your vendor.
Page 204 Chapter 14 Product Specifications Attach the wall mounting chassis with the plugs and screws as shown below: Connect the MAX208M2W Series to the wall mounting chassis by snapping the chassis’ two upper chassis hooks into the matching holes on the MAX208M2W Series: Do not pinch or server the cable connections between the wall- mounting chassis the MAX208M2W Series.
Page 205 Chapter 14 Product Specifications Snap the lower chassis hooks into the matching holes on the MAX208M2W Series. The cable connections should come out either the left or right gaps between the wall-mounting chassis and the MAX208M2W Series Once you have snapped the wall-mounting chassis in place, the MAX208M2W Series is securely fastened to the wall.

Page 207 P P E N D I X WiMAX Security Wireless security is vital to protect your wireless communications. Without it, information transmitted over the wireless network would be accessible to any networking device within range. User Authentication and Data Encryption The WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) standard employs user authentication and encryption to ensure secured communication at all times.
Page 208: Appendix A Wimax Security
Appendix A WiMAX Security RADIUS RADIUS is based on a client-server model that supports authentication, authorization and accounting. The base station is the client and the server is the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server handles the following tasks: • Authentication Determines the identity of the users.
Page 209: Security Association
Appendix A WiMAX Security the network. In addition to the shared key, password information exchanged is also encrypted to protect the network from unauthorized access. Diameter Diameter (RFC 3588) is a type of AAA server that provides several improvements over RADIUS in efficiency, security, and support for roaming. Security Association The set of information about user authentication and data encryption between two computers is known as a security association (SA).
Page 210 Appendix A WiMAX Security Authentication The MAX208M2W Series supports EAP-TTLS authentication. EAP-TTLS (Tunneled Transport Layer Service) EAP-TTLS is an extension of the EAP-TLS authentication that uses certificates for only the server-side authentications to establish a secure connection (with EAP- TLS digital certifications are needed by both the server and the wireless clients for mutual authentication).

Page 249: Appendix D Ip Addresses And Subnetting
P P E N D I X IP Addresses and Subnetting This appendix introduces IP addresses and subnet masks. IP addresses identify individual devices on a network. Every networking device (including computers, servers, routers, printers, etc.) needs an IP address to communicate across the network.
Page 250: Subnet Masks
Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting The following figure shows an example IP address in which the first three octets (192.168.1) are the network number, and the fourth octet (16) is the host ID. Figure 150 Network Number and Host ID How much of the IP address is the network number and how much is the host ID varies according to the subnet mask.
Page 251 Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting By convention, subnet masks always consist of a continuous sequence of ones beginning from the leftmost bit of the mask, followed by a continuous sequence of zeros, for a total number of 32 bits. Subnet masks can be referred to by the size of the network number part (the bits with a “1”...
Page 252 Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting Notation Since the mask is always a continuous number of ones beginning from the left, followed by a continuous number of zeros for the remainder of the 32 bit mask, you can simply specify the number of ones instead of writing the value of each octet.
Page 253 Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting The following figure shows the company network before subnetting. Figure 151 Subnetting Example: Before Subnetting You can “borrow” one of the host ID bits to divide the network 192.168.1.0 into two separate sub-networks. The subnet mask is now 25 bits (255.255.255.128 or /25).
Page 254 Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting The following figure shows the company network after subnetting. There are now two sub-networks, A and B. Figure 152 Subnetting Example: After Subnetting In a 25-bit subnet the host ID has 7 bits, so each sub-network has a maximum of –...
Page 255 Appendix D IP Addresses and Subnetting Each subnet contains 6 host ID bits, giving 2 - 2 or 62 hosts for each subnet (a host ID of all zeroes is the subnet itself, all ones is the subnet’s broadcast address). Table 93 Subnet 1 LAST OCTET BIT IP/SUBNET MASK...
