The contents of the Wireless Configuration page vary depending upon the options

selected as follows:

• If Spectrum Management Control is set to ‘Fixed Frequency’, the Lower Center

Frequency field is replaced by Fixed Tx Frequency and Fixed Rx Frequency.

• If Platform Variant is set to ‘Connectorized’, Antenna Gain and Cable Loss are

also displayed.

Table 6-5 Step 2: Wireless Configuration attributes

Attribute Meaning

Access Method This attribute controls how the unit identifies and connects to

the correct peer unit. There are two methods:

‘Link Access’ means that each unit must be configured with a

Target MAC Address equal to the actual MAC address of its

peer.

‘Link Name Access’ means that both units must be configured

with the same Link Name.

Link Name Only displayed when Access Method is set to ‘Link Name

Access’. A link can only be established between units that

have identical Link Names.

Link Name may consist of letters (A-Z and a-z), numbers

(0-9), spaces, and the following special characters:

(),-.,:<=>[]_{}

Target MAC

Address

This is only displayed when Access Method is set to ‘Link

Access’. This is the MAC Address of the peer unit that will be

at the other end of the wireless link. This is used by the

system to ensure the unit establishes a wireless link to the

correct peer. The MAC Address can be found embedded

within the serial number of the unit. The last six characters of

the serial number are the last three bytes of the unit’s MAC

address.

NOTE

A PTP 300 or PTP 500 Series system is shipped as a pair

of units with pre-loaded correct MAC addresses. Target

MAC addresses will only need to be entered if an existing

unit has to be replaced in the field or the units

configuration has been erased.
