In-Band Management; Local Management - Cambium Networks PTP 820G Technical Description

Chapter 6: PTP 820G Management
PTP 820G maintains a backup copy of the software bundle. In the event that the working software version cannot
be found, or the operating system fails to start properly, the system automatically boots from the backup version,
and the previously active version becomes the backup version.
Users can also update the backup version manually. The Web EMS includes a field that indicates whether or not
the active and backup software versions are identical.
In‐Band Management
PTP 820G can optionally be managed In‐Band, via its radio and Ethernet interfaces. This method of management
eliminates the need for a dedicated management interface. For more information, see Management Service
(MNG) on page 5‐41.
Local Management
PTP 820G provides two FE interfaces for local management. The two management interfaces give users the ability
not only to manage the PTP 820G directly via a laptop or PC, but also to manage other devices via the second
management port of the PTP 820G.
