PTP Slave: This unit waits passively, monitoring the selected channel(s) until
polled by the PTP Master and participates in negotiating the wireless link.
Encryption Type: Select an encryption type for data transmitted over the
wireless interface. When encryption is enabled, no Ethernet packets can be
transferred over-the-air unless encryption is enabled on the remote-end radio
and the correct Encryption Key is entered on both radio units.
AES 256-bit: Advanced Encryption Standard using 256-bit encryption. This is
the only level of encryption that is authorized for use. Do not set the radio to
anything other than 256 AES.
Encryption Key: The key is used to encrypt data in a way that can be decoded
by the remote-end radio. Enter the MAC address of the radio on the distant end
of your link. If you are connecting two radios, they need to enter each other's
MAC address into the Encryption Key box for the two radios to communicate.
Spectrum Sweep TTP
Click Spectrum Sweep in the left hand menu to display the Spectrum Sweep
configuration screen. The spectrum sweep feature is an off-line RF survey tool
to detect interference and evaluate spectrum availability. Configurable survey
parameters include the high and low frequency limits, the step size, and the
number of samples at each step. The output graph displays the maximum (red)
and average (blue) RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication) for each step.
Performing a Sweep
The PTP Master or PMP Sector Controller transmitter is automatically disabled
during the spectrum scan. If the scan is being performed from a PTP Slave or
PMP Subscriber, the transmitter on the remote radio for this link should be
disabled for the duration of the test. Use the configuration Test feature (system
configuration screen) to remotely (over-the-air) disable the remote transmitter for
5 minutes (uncheck the Radio Enable field) and then recover automatically
