Per trap filtering

This feature provides the ability to determine which alarms notifications are sent to the NMS of the

Wireless Access network. By doing so, the service provider is able to determine which traps are sent

and thus better manage the alarms that are being handled by the NMS system and the network

administrators. The operator is able to enable or disable the sending of each individual trap by the

BreezeACCESS Access Units and Subscriber Units.

Ethernet and Voice ports Enable/Disable - enable operators to block the Ethernet port and/or the Voice

port of the BreezeACCESS Subscriber Unit in order to avoid unauthorized use of either or both of these

ports:

The Subscriber Unit provides the ability to enable or disable the reception and

transmission of all traffic through the Ethernet port, except for management traffic

addressed for the SU or originated from it, which will continue to be received and

transmitted.

The Subscriber Unit provides the ability to enable or disable all the telephony

functioning of the unit. When disabled, no dialing tone can be heard and no telephone

connection can be established.

MAC address Deny list

The MAC address Deny list enables the operator to block a specific SU from getting service from the

system. SU that its MAC address appears in the Deny list in the AU will not get service from the AU.

Roaming snap support

Upon roaming to another AU, the SU sends a SNAP packet to the wireless in order to update the

network about the new location of its clients. This feature is relevant for the SU-M.

A Support All authentication mode

When configuring existing networks to use "Shared Key", it is needed that the AU will support both SUs

with "Open system" and S Us with "Shared Key", including SUs with no or wrong WEP Keys, until all SUs

are configured to "Shared Key" mode with the proper key. Therefore, a new option, named "Support All",

was added in the AU to enable connectivity of SUs with both algorithms regardless of their configured

WEP Keys.

Symmetrical rate control per SU

Asymmetrical rate enables the AU to transmit traffic to SU in a higher rate than the maximum transmit

rate that is set in the SU. However, in links that the operator identifies that there is no use to enable the

asymmetrical rate support it is possible to force the AU to transmit to specific SUs in the maximum rate

that is set for the uplink transmission in the SU. This option is set in the SU only.

AU "Out of synchronization" trap

When AUs in a shelf are synchronized from an external source, upon loss of synchronization signals, the

AUs will start using their internal clock and an "Out of synchronization on" trap will be sent. When the

synchronization signals resume, the AUs will start u sing them again and an "Out of synchronization off"

trap will be sent.

Overlap sending

When this option is enabled, digits are transferred once they are dialed with no need to push the #

button at the end of the dialed number. Applicable to SU with voice port only.

Total Transmitted Unicast Frames Counter

Displays the number of unicast frames successfully transmitted to the wireless media, excluding

retransmissions. This count is useful for calculating the rates of retransmissions or dropped frame, since

only unicast frames are retransmitted if not acknowledged.
