• Quick Start Guide x 1

• Management Utility and User's manual CD x 1

If any of the above items are damaged or missing, please contact your dealer immediately.

3. Before Installation

1. For the MAP-2100, the default IP address will base on the MAC address of the device you get.

For example, the WAN MAC address: 00-30-4f-4b-09-30. The last two hexadecimal set, 09h and 30h

will be converted into decimal number, 9and 48 as the IP address of the MAP-2100.

So, for MAP-2100, the IP address status will as following:

ÎWLAN 0: 10.9.48.1 (Radio 1, Wireless Backhaul)

ÎLAN / WLAN 1: 172.9.48.1 (Radio 2, Wireless AP & LAN)

The MAC address information can be found on the bottom of the MAP-2100.

Hint For future maintain or support purpose, it is also suggested to list the MAC

address of the MESH AP into a table for all the MESH AP you install. The

information can be used for future maintain such as device “Reset to default”

3. To provide the Internet Access, the network should also provide the connectivity to the Internet for the

MAP-2100.

4. Network Planning

4.1 Installation topology

The basic MESH Network topology can be planned as following.

[Optional]

RADIUS Server

MLRD Serve

Router

Ethernet Switch

DHCP Server

802.11b/g

Mobile User

Mesh Relay

Mesh Gateway

1. The MAP-2100 can be configured either a gateway or a relay via web interface. The basic service set

can be one Mesh gateway and one or two Mesh relays.

2. The Internet connection is required if the mesh network planned to provide the connectivity for Internet

for all the mobile users.

3. RADIUS server or MLRD (Mobile Location Register Daemon) server are optional servers that vary on

the installation site.

Each MAP-2100 support up to 250 user registration, the basic set above then can support 750 users

registration. To expand the network coverage, simply just base on the real network environment to add on

the new Mesh Relay or Mesh Gateway.

Note The MAP-2100 supports 250-user registration; however, the overall network

performance may vary on the real environment and application in many

aspects, such as the bandwidth to the Internet, the services / sessions that the

clients implement.

4.2 Installation consideration

4.2.1 Hardware

Please review the points below for the Hardware install consideration

a. MAP-2100

The MAP-2100 can be configured either a gateway or a relay via web interface. When the

MAP-2100 is set in gateway mode, both of its WAN and LAN RJ-45 ports are functional. If the

MAP-2100 is configured in relay mode, its WAN port is not available.

b. IEEE802.11a or b/g

In general, it is suggested to fix the operating mode to IEEE802.11a as backhaul connection

(Radio 1) and IEEE802.11b/g as Access Point connection (Radio 2).

Note Please refer to your local regulation for the wireless frequency band. The

MAP-2100 support 5GHz and 2.4GHz, in some area, please follow the local

regulation to configure the MAP-2100 to the correct frequency.

c. Antenna Type

In general, it is suggested to use omni-antenna for both backhaul and local AP. However, the

antenna installation will vary on environment.

Note Please refer to your local regulation for the wireless output power. The

MAP-2100 support level output power adjustment. In some areas, please follow

the local regulation to configure the output power together with the antenna.

while the first

time boot up

the whole

system.

Three MAP-2100 with WAN MAC address: 09-64, 09-6A, 10-2B will forming the default backhaul

network: 10.9.100.1, 10.93.106.1 and 10.16.43.1 as in the example, where 10.9.100.1 will be the

gateway of the 10.xx.yy.zz network.

The three AP service networks will also base on the MAC address to forming the 172.xx.yy.zz/24

subnet as the default service IP subnet.

Hint

1. You can see the text mode network topology from web interface of the

three MAP-2100. Or from the management utility. Please refer to the User

Guide or Management Utility Guide for more.

2. By default, WLAN 1 / LAN port of MAP-2100 are:

zNAT: ON.

zDHCP: ON

zZero Configure (PnP IP): OFF

zWLAN 1 SSID: PLANET

zWLAN 1 SSID broadcast: OFF

zWLAN 1 Frequency band: Auto (802.11a/b/g)

3. It is suggested to start up the first installation from LAN port of MAP-2100

base on the default IP setting.

The above example shows the default network subnet setting of the Mesh network. For more

information of re-forming the whole network topology, such as re-structure the IP network, turn off the

NAT, turn on the backhaul security, etc, please refer to the user guide to have the MAP-2100

configured for the network.

4.2.2 Software consideration

The MAP-2100 provides the three management interfaces:

¾Secured Web access

¾Management utility

¾SNMP

For the first time management, please follow the below section to access the MAP-2100 through web

browser.

The management utility help to central manage the MESH AP network. This utility can be installed in a

Windows PC that be located in the AP services network, for example, 172.xx.yy.zz/24 network, or can

be installed in the Internet. For more information about Management utility, please also refer to the

management utility guide.

To support mobile IP, the MLRD server is required. This MLRD server should be installed in the same

subnet to the Mesh Gateway for optimal performance. For more information about MLRD server,

please refer to the user guide of the MLRD server.

5. Hardware Installation Procedures

Before you proceed with the installation, it is necessary that you have enough information about the

MAP-2100.

1. Locate an optimum location for the MAP-2100. Plan for the output frequency of the MAP-2100, 2.4GHz

or 5GHz.

2. Assemble the antennas to MAP-2100 follow the frequency band plan. Try to place them to a position

that can best cover your wireless network. The antenna’s position will enhance the receiving sensitivity.

When installing antenna(s), follow these general tips:

For most elevated antenna installations, we recommend you to ask the professional installers

for proper installation and safety.

For the safety reasons, you are

recommended never to touch a high-gain

antenna when it is transmitting or point it at

any part of your body.

LAN Port WAN Port Reset button /

Restore Default

DIP Switch

Power

Receptor

Radio 2

Access Point

Radio 1

Backhaul

Please, follow carefully the instructions

with your antenna.

Keep antennas away from metal

objects/obstructions (heating and

air-conditioning ducts, large ceiling trusses,

building superstructures, and major power

cabling runs).

Use a directional antenna when you

establish a link between two buildings. A

directional antenna must be properly

aligned to the point at the other antenna,

line-of-sight.

Locate an omni-directional antenna in the middle of the desired coverage area if possible.

Place the antenna as high as possible to increase the coverage area.

Outdoor antennas should be mounted at a sufficient height to prevent the radio path from

above the obstructions such as trees and buildings.

Antenna towers should keep a safe distance from overhead power lines. The recommended

safe distance is twice the tower height.

3. Using Category 3 or higher UTP or STP cable, connect the LAN port of MAP-2100 to a 10Mbps or

10/100Mbps Ethernet hub or switch, and connect the management station to a hub or switch on the

same LAN.

4. Connect the power adapter to the receptor on MAP-2100 and plug the other end to a wall outlet or

power strip.

Note ONLY use the power adapter supplied with the MAP-2100. Otherwise, the

product may be damaged.

6. Startup the MAP-2100

To get the initial management of the MAP-2100, please follow the following steps.

1. Connect the MAP-2100’s LAN port to an active network.

2. Connect the PC to the network as well.

3. Check the WAN MAC address of the MAP-2100. For example, 00-30-4f-4b-09-64.

4. Convert the last two set of hexadecimal number into two decimal number. For example, (09H-64H), into

(9.100). Then the LAN/WLAN1 interface will use the IP address: 172.9.100.1 as default.

5. Setup the PC into the same IP subnet of the MAP-2100, for example, 172.9.100.2

6. Key in the URL, https://172.9.100.1 to bring up the management interface of the MAP-2100.

7. The browser pop-up the user name and password request. Key in the

password and username with

“admin”

8. Now, the MAP-2100 is ready

for services

7. Startup the first client connection

7.1 Knowing the default MESH AP setting

The default settings of MESH AP for

client access are as below:

Wireless Access Point:

[Network -> WLAN-> Radio2]

SSID: PLANET

Hide SSID: Enabled

Wireless Frequency: Auto

Hint 1. To make sure the first connection accurately, it is suggested to configure /

double check the Radio 2 to 802.11g.

2. Turn off Hide SSID can help to quick finding the AP if there is no security

concern for this first installation.

LAN IP Configuration:

[Local Services -> DHCP Server]

DHCP: Enable

Access Configuration:

[Login Setup -> Login parameters]

Require User Login: Enable

Zero Config (PnP IP): Enable

Hint With ”Require User Login” turned off, the manager can quickly use and check

client access without requiring user name, password.

With this feature turned ON, the MESH AP will ask for password, either from

Local User Database or from RADIUS where the setting are empty by default.

7.2 Steps to configure the client PC and get

connected to MESH AP

Please follow the steps below for the client PC setup.

In the following we will base on the 11g USB adapter as

example.

1. Configure the Wireless profile as the figure from

your client PC. That is, key in the SSID as PLANET.

2. The Wireless LAN adapters starts the connecting

once apply the setting.
