1.1 SAF FreeMile Full Outdoor Units SAF FreeMile product family is new next generation product line which is targeting growing demands for data transmission over microwave radio. As a result the primary traffic interface for SAF FreeMile radio is Fast Ethernet. As SAF FreeMile is capable of providing bit rate of up to 100Mbps, it is a perfect addition to SAF portfolio. The excellent SAF FreeMile radio and modem performance allows achieving perfect system capacity. Apart from the full system capacity of 100Mbps, it is possible to configure the radio to 10 or 30 MHz channels and to QPSK, 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM modulations, thus providing various capacities to suit ...
You must have Power over Ethernet sourcing equipment to power‐up FreeMile and connect the laptop to SAF FreeMile. It is possible to use passive injectors, utilizing spare wire pairs of Ethernet cable. Refer to Chapter 9 for detailed information on pinouts. Power over Ethernet injector can be ...
SAF FreeMile FODU. Power over Ethernet injector can be purchased from SAF Tehnika JSC as optional accessory. To know IP address, side value should be read from the label. See Chapter 1.7 for details. – If Low Side ‐> IP: 192.168.205.10 – If High Side ‐> IP: 192.168.205.11 Connect to SAF FreeMile FODU by entering IP address in the browser address line ‐ by default 192.168.205.10 for the low side and 192.168.205.11 for the high side. (!) Default username for Web, Telnet and FTP access is admin and password is changeme. It is recommended to use the following or later versions of web‐browsers: – IE v. 6.0 –...
The IP configuration window provides configuration of the Ethernet management port addressing, IP services and routes. Settings listed here are essential for building a network or other specific traffic purposes. Explanation of customization fields: 4.3.1 Ethernet management port IP configuration Figure 4.12. Ethernet management port IP configuration 1. IP Address – allows specifying IP address of SAF FreeMile FODU you are currently logged in. Default IP address is 192.168.205.10 or 192.168.205.11 – depending on which side the specific FreeMile FODU is – low side has 192.168.205.10 IP address and high side – 192.168.205.11 (command line – net ip addr <addr>); (!) Note that SAF FreeMile IP addresses need to be in the same subnet. 2. IP Mask – allows specifying IP mask of SAF FreeMile FODU you are currently logged ...
4.8.2 SNMP allowed hosts configuration Figure 4.35. SNMP allowed hosts configuration 1. SNMP host list – shows the list of available SNMP v1/v2 hosts; adds or deletes the host IP address to the SAF FreeMile SNMP v1/v2 host table. If the SNMP host connected to the SAF FreeMile is not added to SNMP v1/v2 host table, SAF FreeMile will not respond to the SNMP requests from that host. If „Rollback on” is selected, configuration will be reverted in case of erroneous configuration changes applied. 2. Allows to add or delete SNMP host IP addresses from the list (command line – snmp host {add | delete | list | reset} <ipaddr> and snmp2 host {add | delete | list | reset} <ipaddr>); 3. Writes to configuration file all the changes made on the whole page (command line – cfg write); 4. System returned ‐ in case of error or incorrectly entered parameter value, or other problems on the whole page – the info message is being shown here. Otherwise it says “Ok”. The SAF FreeMile Series Full Outdoor Unit Technical Description and Configuration Guide • Rev. 1.3...
EEPROM using write and/or cfg write commands. These parameters are stored in EEPROM in the form of script and when booting up, the script parameters are loaded into RAM. These parameters can be freely changed in run‐time, ‐ changing the data in RAM. If the SAF FreeMile is shut down without saving the current configuration (script) in EEPROM, the original ...
Cfg group Groups commands in configuration script. 6.2 Command Line In the command line you are able to execute all the commands to manage the SAF FreeMile which are available through command interface. This dialog box interprets commands as Telnet commands and sends them to the device. The initial screen shows you the available commands. To view help on a command, type in “<command> ?”, where <command> stands for the specific ...
For information how to upload files in the Flash disk, please refer to Chapter 8. – Firmware file, ‐ this file is the main firmware executable for the appropriate SAF FreeMile model. The file name can be freely changed, but its default name will contain the version and SAF FreeMile model, e.g., ‘cfipz000.elf.ezip’. The most important factor concerning this file is that it must be uploaded with ‘E’ and ‘c’ attribute flags, otherwise this file will not be used as the firmware. ...
Configuration backup files Using ‘cfg backup <filename>’ command, the user can create the backup file of the current SAF FreeMile configuration. The configuration backup file is a text file and, when created, contains the current configuration script, ‐ the same configuration script that are stored in EEPROM. Please refer to Chapter 8 for more information on configuration script. The configuration backup files are stored on Flash disk, where they can be edited or downloaded to PC. The backup configuration file can be applied in run‐time, by consecutively entering ‘cfg restore <filename>’ and ‘cfg run’ commands. Note: the configuration restored from file is not stored in EEPROM and, therefore, will be lost when SAF FreeMile is restarted. To save it in EEPROM use ‘write’ command. The user can create and store several configuration files to quickly revert to other SAF FreeMile site configurations. ...
For this purpose the command “dp sight <local_addr>” should be executed in ‘cmd’. Instead of <local_addr> place the IP address of your PC Ethernet adapter that is connected to SAF FreeMile FODU. Refer to figure below for example. Figure 7.1. Discovery protocol: dp sight (!) Note that IP addresses of Ethernet adapter and SAF FreeMile FODUs may belong to different subnets. This command sends discovery messages on broadcast address 255.255.255.255 to all devices in network. All SAF FreeMile devices connected to this network are responding with its own IP address/CIDR notation and firmware version. CIDR notation (routing prefix) is related to network mask that is also necessary in order to manage SAF FreeMile unit. The IP address of your PC Ethernet adapter and SAF FreeMile FODU ...
SAF FreeMile FODU and instead of <scan_addr> place the broadcast address of specified subnet. Refer to figure below for example. Figure 7.2. Discovery protocol: dp scan (!) Note that IP address of Ethernet adapter should belong to the same subnet as SAF FreeMile FODUs, i.e. the subnet of SAF FreeMile units should be known. The subnet mask of Ethernet adapter and SAF FreeMile FODUs may differ. This command sends discovery messages on specified broadcast address to all devices in the specified subnet. All SAF FreeMile devices from specified subnet are ...
For this purpose the command “dp remote <local_addr> <remote_addr> <scan_addr>” should be executed in ‘cmd’. Instead of <local_addr> place the IP address of your PC Ethernet adapter that is connected to router/SAF FreeMile FODU. Instead of <remote_addr> place the IP address of one of the remote SAF FreeMile units known to you. Instead of <scan_addr> place the broadcast address. Refer to figure below for example. ...
To perform software upgrade from Web GUI, please go to “Configuration System configuration” and in “Upgrade software” section press “Browse…” button and locate software upgrade file (e.g. cfipz000.elf.ezip) on your hard disc (see Chapter 4.2.4 for detailed explanation of Web GUI upgrade). Figure 8.1. Upgrade software Besides there are other various ways how the user can update the SAF FreeMile management software by uploading the appropriate firmware file to the SAF FreeMile flash disk and further editing boot configuration file if necessary. The file upload can be performed: – via Ethernet management port using update package, –...
‘send.205.xx.cmd’ to perform update, where „xx” represents last number of actual SAF FreeMile IP address. In case the memory is full, upload will halt and error message will be displayed. In this case user must first delete some files to free enough memory on the SAF ...
