Connecting the Unit  
For the 10/100 Base-TX port, plug a Category 5E twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. Connect the  
other end to the far end station. Verify that the LNK/ACT LED is ON once the connection has been  
completed. Use a standard Category 5E straight through or crossover cable with a minimum length of one  
meter and a maximum length of 100  
meters.  
N-Tron recommends the use of pre-  
manufactured Cat5E cables to ensure the  
best performance. If this is not an option  
and users must terminate their own ends  
on the Cat5E cables; one of the two color  
coded standards shown to the right should  
be utilized. If a user does not follow one  
of these two color code standards then the  
performance and maximum cable distance  
will be reduced significantly, and may  
prevent the unit from establishing a link.  
RJ45 CONNECTOR CRIMP SPECIFICATIONS  
Please reference the illustration below for your Cat5 cable specifications:

N-TRON SWITCH GROUNDING TECHNIQUES  
The grounding philosophy of any control system is an integral part of the design. N-Tron switches are  
designed to be grounded, but the user has been given the flexibility to float the switch when required. The  
best noise immunity and emissions (i.e. CE) are obtained when the N-Tron switch chassis is connected to  
earth ground via a drain wire. Some N-Tron switches have metal din-rail brackets that can ground the  
switch if the din-rail is grounded. In some cases, N-Tron devices with metal brackets can be supplied with  
optional plastic brackets if isolation is required.  
Both V- legs of the power input connector are connected  
to chassis internally on the PCB. Connecting a drain wire  
to earth ground from one of the V- terminal plugs as  
shown here will ground the switch and the chassis. The  
power leads from the power source should be limited to 3  
meters or less in length.  
Alternatively, users can run a drain wire & lug from any of the  
Din-Rail screws or empty PEM nuts on the enclosure. When  
using an unused PEM nut to connect a ground lug via a machine  
screw, care should be taken to limit the penetration of the outer  
skin by less than 1/4 in. Failure to do so may cause irreversible  
damage to the internal components of the switch.  
Note: Before applying power to the grounded switch, you must  
use a volt meter to verify there is no voltage difference between  
the power supply’s negative output terminal and the device  
chassis grounding point.  
If the use of shielded cables is required, it is generally recommended to only connect the shield at one end to  
prevent ground loops and interfere with low level signals (i.e. thermocouples, RTD, etc.). Cat5e cables  
manufactured to EIA-568A or 568B specifications are required for use with N-Tron devices.  
In the event all Cat5e patch cable distances are small (i.e. All Ethernet devices are located the same local  
cabinet and/or referenced to the same earth ground), it is permissible to use fully shielded cables terminated  
to chassis ground at both ends in systems void of low level analog signals.  
Drain wire with lug connecting switch chassis to known grounding point.

System Information  
Base Station SSID: The Name of the 802.11 Service Set (established by the Host Access Point) the device  
is connected to:  
While operating in Station mode, displays the BSSID of the Access Point where the device has associated.  
While operating in Access Point mode, displays the BSSID of the wireless device itself.  
AP MAC: displays the MAC address of the Access Point where the device has associated while operating  
in Station mode. MAC (Media Access Control) is the unique HW identifier on each 802.11 radio.  
Signal Strength: displays the received wireless signal level (client-side) while operating in Station mode.  
The represented value coincides with the graphical bar. Use the antenna alignment tool to adjust the device  
antenna to improve the link with other wireless devices. The antenna of the wireless client has to be adjusted  
to get the maximum signal strength. Signal Strength is measured in dBm (the Decibels referenced to 1  
milliwatt). The conversion is defined as dBm=10log10(P/1mW). So, 0dBm would be 1mW and 72dBm  
would be .0000006mW. A signal strength of 85dBm or better is recommended for stable links.  
Antenna Alignment: This utility allows the user to optimize the antenna direction for maximum link signal.  
More information is provided in the Tools sub-section.  
TX Rate and RX Rate: displays the current 802.11 data transmission (TX) and data reception (RX) rate  
while operating in Station mode. Data rates at 1,2,5.5,11Mbps (802.11b) and 6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54Mbps  
(802.11) are possible. Typically, the higher the signal, the higher the data rate, and consequently the higher  
the throughput. For maximum throughput (54Mbps), typically a 70dBm or better signal is required.  
Frequency: This is the operating frequency and channel of the 802.11 Service Set (hosted by AP) the client  
is connected to. Device uses this frequency to transmit and receive data. For 802.11Na operation, the range  
of available frequencies are 5.745-5.825Ghz and for 802.11b/g/n operation, 2412-2472 MHz. However, the  
specific frequencies that can be used will vary depending on local country regulations.  
ACK Timeout: displays the current ACK Timeout value, which is set on the device manually or adjusted  
automatically. The ACK Timeout (Acknowledgment Timeout) specifies how long the N-TRON 702-W  
device should wait for an acknowledgment from a partner device confirming packet reception before  
concluding the packet must have been in error and requires resending. ACK Timeout is a very important  
outdoor wireless performance parameter. The ACK timeout is in microseconds. More information is  
provided in the Advanced settings section.  
Security: This is the current security setting. More information is provided in the Link Setup section.  
Uptime: This is the running total of time the device has been running since last power up (hard-reboot) or  
software upgrade. The time is expressed in days, hours, minutes and seconds.  
Date: indicates the current system date and time, expressed in the form “year-month-day  
hours:minutes:seconds”. System date and time can be retrieved from the Internet services using NTP  
(Network Time Protocol).  
LAN cable: displays the current status of the Ethernet port connection. This can alert  
operator/user/technician that the LAN cable is plugged into the device and there is an active Ethernet  
connection.

Statistics Reporting  
LAN Statistics: section displays the detailed receive and transmit statistics (Bytes, Packets, Errors) of the  
LAN (Ethernet) interface. These statistics represent the total amount of data and packets transferred between  
devices through the Ethernet interface from either direction.  
Both unicast IP traffic (conversations between two hosts using HTTP, SMTP, SSH and other protocols) and  
broadcast traffic (while addressing all hosts in a given network range with a single destination IP address) is  
accounted.  
As long as there is some network traffic being generated or passed through the LAN interface, Received and  
Transmitted Bytes and Packets value will continue to increase. The Errors value represents the total  
number of transmitted and received packets for which an error occurred.  
WLAN Statistics: section displays the detailed receive and transmit statistics (Bytes, Packets, Errors) of the  
wireless interface.  
These statistics represent the total amount of unicast and broadcast IP data transferred between devices  
through the wireless interface from either direction.  
As long as there is some network traffic being generated or passed through the wireless interface, Received  
and Transmitted Bytes, Packets, and Errors (if any); statistic counters will continue to increase.  
WLAN Errors: section displays the counters of 802.11 specific errors which were registered on wireless  
interface:  
Rx invalid NWID value represents the number of packets received with a different NWID or ESSID  
- packets which were destined for another access point. It can help detect configuration problems or  
identify the adjacent wireless network existence on the same frequency.  
Rx Invalid Crypt value represents the number of transmitted and received packets which were  
encrypted with the wrong encryption key and failed the decryption routines. It can be used to detect  
invalid wireless security settings.  
Rx Invalid Frag value represents the number of packets missed during transmission and reception.  
These packets were dropped due to re-assembling failure as some link layer fragments of the packet  
were lost.  
Tx Excessive Retries value represents the number of packets which failed to be delivered to the  
destination. Undelivered packets are retransmitted a number of times before an error occurs.  
Missed beacons value represents the number of beacons (management packets sent at regular  
intervals by the Access Point) which were missed by the client. This indicates that the client is out of  
range.  
Other errors value represents the total number of transmitted and received packets that were lost or  
discarded for other reasons.

N-TRON 702-W examines the destination IP address of each data packet traveling through the  
system and chooses the appropriate interface for packet forwarding. The system choice depends on  
static routing rules entries, which are registered in the system routing table. Static routes to specific

Link Setup Page  
The Link Setup Page contains everything needed by the operator to setup the wireless part of the link. This  
includes regulatory requirements, channel and frequency settings, device mode, data rates, and wireless  
security.  
Basic Wireless Settings  
The general wireless settings, such as wireless device BSSID, country code, output power, 802.11 mode and  
data rates can be configured in this section.  
Wireless Mode: specify the operating mode of the device. The mode depends on the network topology  
requirements. There are 4 operating modes supported in N-TRON 702-W software:  
1. Station: This is a client mode, which can connect to an AP.  
It is common for bridging applications when one non-wireless devices needs to be  
connected to an AP. In Station mode the device acts as the Subscriber Station while  
connecting to the primary Access Point which is defined by the SSID and forwarding all  
the traffic to/from the network device connected to the Ethernet interface.  
More specifically Station mode uses arpnat technology which may result lack of  
transparency while passing-through broadcast packets in bridge mode.  
2. Station WDS: WDS stands for Wireless Distribution System. Station WDS should be used while  
connecting to an Access Point which is operating in WDS mode.  
*Station WDS mode enables packet forwarding at layer 2 level.  
The benefit of Station WDS is improved performance and faster throughput. Station WDS  
- Bridge mode is fully transparent for all Layer2 protocols.  
Refer to the Network Settings section for detailed Bridge network mode configuration  
information.  
3. Access Point: This is an 802.11 Access Point mode.  
4. Access Point WDS: This is an 802.11 Access Point which allows layer 2 bridging with Station  
WDS devices using the WDS protocol.  
WDS allows you to bridge wireless traffic between devices which are operating in Access  
Point mode. Access Point is usually connected to a wired network (Ethernet LAN)  
allowing wireless connection to the wired network. By connecting Access Points to one  
another in an Extended Service Set using the WDS, distant Ethernets can be bridged into  
a single LAN.  
It is very important that network loops not be created with either WDS bridges or combinations of  
wired (Ethernet) connections and WDS bridges. Tree or Star shape network topologies should be  
used in all WDS configurations (i.e. if AP2 and AP3 are specified as the WDS peers of AP1, AP2  
should not be specified as the WDS peer of AP3 and AP3 should not be specified as the WDS peer  
of AP2 in any case). Mesh and Ring network topologies are not supported by WDS and should be  
avoided.  
Note: Station WDS and AP WDS mode uses the WDS protocol which is not defined as the standard thus  
compatibility issues between equipment from different vendors may arise.

WDS Peers: WDS Stations and/or WDS Access Points connected to the 702-W Access Point should be  
specified in this list in order to create a wireless network infrastructure - Wireless Distribution System  
(applicable for AP WDS mode only).  
Enter the MAC address of the paired WDS device in the WDS Peer entry field. One MAC address should be  
specified for Point-to-Point connections. Up to six WDS Peers can be specified for Point-to-Multi-Point  
connections.  
Note: Access Point operating in WDS mode and all WDS Peers must operate on the same frequency  
channel and use the same channel spectrum width. Only WEP encryption is supported between WDS Peers.  
SSID: Service Set Identifier used to identify your 802.11 wireless LAN should be specified while operating  
in Access Point mode. All client devices within range will receive broadcast messages from the access point  
advertising this SSID. ESSID: specify the ESSID of the Access Point which the N-TRON 702-W should  
associate to while operating in Station or Station WDS mode. There can be several Access Points with the  
same ESSID. If the ESSID is set to "Any" the station will connect to any available AP.  
The list of available Access Points can be retrieved using the Select button, which activates the Site Survey  
tool with the AP selection functionality. Site Survey will search for the available wireless networks in range  
on all supported channels and will allow you to select one for association. In case the selected network uses  
encryption, you’ll need to set security parameters in the wireless security section. Select the Access Point  
from the list and click the Select button for association.  
Click Scan button to refresh the list of available wireless networks.  
The Close this window button closes Site Survey tool window.  
Site Survey channel scan list can be modified using the Channel Scan List control.  
Channel Scan List: This will confine scanning only to the frequencies selected (applicable for Station and  
Station WDS modes only). The benefits of this are faster scanning as well as filtering out unwanted AP's.  
The Site Survey tool will look for the Access Points in the selected channels only.  
Channel list management for the selected IEEE 802.11 mode and specified Channel Spectrum Width can be  
enabled by selecting the Enabled option. There are two ways to set the Channel Scan List - enumerating the  
required channels (separated by comma) in the input field or using the selection window which is activated  
using the Edit button.  
Hide SSID control will disable advertising the SSID of the access point in broadcast messages to wireless  
stations. Unselected control will make SSID visible during network scans on the wireless stations. Control is  
available while operating in Access Point mode only.  
Lock to AP MAC: This allows the station to always maintain connection to a specific AP with a specific  
MAC (applicable for Station and Station WDS modes only). This is useful as sometimes there can be a few  
identically named SSID's (AP's) with different MAC addresses. With AP lock on, the station will lock to the  
MAC address and not roam between several Access Points with the same ESSID.  
Country Code: Different countries will have different power levels and possible frequency selections. To  
ensure device operation follows regulatory compliance rules, please make sure to select your correct country

where device will be used. The channel list, output power limits, IEEE 802.11 and Channel Spectrum Width  
modes will be tuned according to the regulations of the selected country.  
IEEE 802.11 Mode: This is the radio standard used for operation of your N-TRON 702-W powered device.  
802.11b is an older 2.4GHz mode while the 802.11g (2.4GHz) and 802.11a (5GHz) are newer standards  
based on faster Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation.  
702-W supported IEEE 802.11 modes:  
802.11NG 20MHz  
802.11NG 40MHz  
802.11NA 20MHz  
802.11NA - 40MHz  
Channel Spectrum Width: This is the spectral width of the radio channel. Supported wireless channel  
spectrum widths:  
20MHz is the standard channel spectrum width (selected by default).  
40MHz the widest channel spectrum width required to connect to an 802.11 a/g/n network which  
supports MIMO.  
Reducing spectral width provides 2 benefits and 1 drawback.  
Benefits:  
It will increase the amount of non-overlapping channels. This can allow networks to scale  
better.  
It will increase the PSD (Power Spectral Density) of the channel and enable the link distance  
to be increased.  
Drawbacks:  
It will reduce throughput proportional to the channel size reduction. So just as turbo mode  
(40MHz) increases possible speeds by 2x, half spectrum channel (10MHz), will decrease  
possible speeds by 2x.  
Output Power: This will configure the maximum average transmit output power (in dBm) of the wireless  
device. The output power at which the wireless module transmits data can be specified using the slider.  
When entering the output power value manually, the slider position will change according to the entered  
value. The transmit power level that is actually used is limited to the maximum value allowed by your  
country's regulatory agency.  
Data Rate: This defines the data rate (in Mbps) at which the device should transmit wireless packets. If the  
Auto check box is enabled, then the rate algorithm will select the best data rate depending on the link  
quality conditions. If a data rate below 54Mbps is selected while the Auto rate selection is enabled, then the  
selected data rate will become the maximum data rate that can be used. Use Auto option if you are having  
trouble getting connected or losing data at a higher rate. In this case the lower data rates will be used by the  
device automatically.  
Refer to the section Advanced Wireless Settings for detailed information about rate algorithms.

Wireless Security  
This section enables you to set parameters that control how the subscriber station associates to a wireless  
device and encrypts/decrypts data.  
Station Wireless Security Settings  
Choose the security method according to the Access Point security policy. The subscriber station should be  
authorized by the Access Point in order to get access to the network and all the user data transferred  
between subscriber station and Access Point will be encrypted if the wireless security methods are used.  
Security: N-TRON 702-W supports all popular 802.11 security options such as WEP, WPA, and WPA2.  
Select the security mode of your wireless network:  
WPA – enable WPA™ security mode. Wi-Fi Protected Access - WPA™ (IEEE 802.11i/D3.0) and  
WPA2™ (IEEE 802.11i) with pre-shared key management protocol offers improved security  
methods as they are new protocols that were created under the 802.11i standard to address  
weaknesses in the WEP approach.  
WPA™ and WPA2™ support the following ciphers for data encryption:  
TKIP - Temporal Key Integrity Protocol which uses the RC4 encryption algorithm.  
CCMP - Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol which  
uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm.  
The device will use the strongest cipher (CCMP) in Station and Access Point wireless mode by default. If  
CCMP is not supported on the other side of the link, the TKIP encryption will be used. For instance, when  
the device acts as an Access Point with WPA security enabled and at least one wireless station (without  
CCMP support) is connected to it.  
WPA-AES – enable WPA™ security mode with AES support only.  
WPA2-AES – enable WPA2™ security mode with AES support only.  
WPA Authentication: Choose between PSK and EAP.  
PSK Pre-shared Key Type in the key to be shared for authentication between the AP and Station.  
EAP Extensible Authentication Protocol Uses TTLS and MSCHAPv2 for Authentication against  
an EAP authentication server  
WPA Identity For EAP only - The identity of the EAP server  
WPA Username EAP Only - Username  
WPA Password EAP Only - Password  
WPA Authentication: one of the following WPA™ key selection methods should be specified if WPA™  
or WPA2™ security method is used (applicable for Station and Station WDS modes only):  
PSK – WPA™ or WPA2™ with Pre-shared Key method (selected by default).  
Revision 04062009  
Page 30 of 52  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
EAP – WPA™ or WPA2™ with EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) IEEE 802.1x  
authentication method. This method is commonly used in Enterprise networks.  
WPA Pre-shared Key: the pass phrase for WPA™ or WPA2™ security method should be specified if the  
Pre-shared Key method is selected. The pre-shared key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63  
characters long.  
MAC ACL: MAC Access Control List (ACL) provides the ability to allow or deny certain clients to  
connect to the AP (applicable for AP and AP WDS modes only).  
MAC ACL can be enabled by selecting the Enabled option.  
There are two ways to set the Access Control List:  
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have granted access to the Access Point. Access  
will be denied for all remaining clients - MAC ACL Policy is set to Allow.  
Define certain wireless clients in the list which will have denied access to the Access Point. Access  
will be granted for all remaining clients - MAC ACL Policy is set to Deny.  
The MAC addresses of wireless clients can be added and removed to the list using the Add and Remove  
buttons.  
Note: MAC Access Control is the weakest security approach. WPA™ or WPA2™ security methods should  
be used when possible.

Network Page  
The Network Page allows the administrator to setup bridge or routing functionality.  
N-TRON 702-W powered devices can operate in bridge or router mode. The IP configuration as described  
below is required for device management purposes. IP addresses can either be retrieved from a DHCP  
server or configured manually. Use the Network menu to configure IP settings.  
Network Mode: specify the operating network mode for the device.  
The mode depends on the network topology requirements:  
Bridge operating mode is selected by default as it is widely used by subscriber stations, while  
connecting to Access Point or using WDS. In this mode the device will act as a transparent bridge  
and will operate in Layer 2. There will be no network segmentation while broadcast domain will be  
the same. Bridge mode will not block any broadcast or multicast traffic. Additional Firewall settings  
can be configured for Layer 2 packet filtering and access control in Bridge mode.  
Router operating mode can be configured in order to operate in Layer 3 to perform routing and  
enable network segmentation. Wireless clients will be on a different IP subnet. Router mode will  
block broadcasts while it is not transparent.  
N-TRON 702-W supports Multicast packet pass-through in Router mode.  
N-TRON 702-W powered Router can act as a DHCP server and supports Network Address  
Translation (Masquerading) feature which is widely used by Access Points. NAT will act as the  
firewall between LAN and WLAN networks. Addition Firewall settings can be configured for Layer  
3 packet filtering and access control in Router mode.  
Bridge Mode  
In bridge mode, the N-TRON 702-W will simply forward the network management and data packets to the  
client PC without any intelligent routing. For some applications, this can provide a more efficient and  
simple network solution. WLAN (wireless) and LAN (Ethernet) interfaces belong to the same network  
segment which has the same IP address space. WLAN and LAN interfaces form the virtual bridge interface  
while acting as bridge ports. The bridge has assigned IP settings for management purposes:  
Bridge IP Address: The device can be set for static IP or can be set to obtain an IP address from the DHCP  
server connected to it.  
One of the IP assignment modes must be selected:  
DHCP choose this option to assign the dynamic IP address, Gateway and DNS address by the local  
DHCP server.  
Static choose this option to assign static IP settings for the bridge interface.  
IP Address: enter the IP address of the device while Static Bridge IP Address mode is selected. This IP will  
be used for the N-TRON 702-W device management purposes.  
Revision 04062009  
Page 32 of 52  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
IP Address and Netmask settings should be consistent with the address space of the network segment where  
the 702-W resides. If the 702-W’s and the administrator PC’s (which is connected to the device on the wired  
or wireless interface) IP settings reside in different address spaces, the 702-W will become unreachable.  
Netmask: This is a value which when expanded into binary provides a mapping to define which portions of  
the IP address groups can be classified as host devices and network devices. Netmask defines the address  
space of the network segment where N-TRON 702-W device resides. 255.255.255.0 (or /24) Netmask is  
commonly used among many C Class IP networks.  
Gateway IP: Typically, this is the IP address of the host router which provides the point of connection to  
the Internet. This can be a DSL modem, Cable modem, or a WISP gateway router. The 702-W will direct  
the packets of data to the gateway if the destination host is not within the local network.  
Gateway IP address should be from the same address space (on the same network segment) as the N-TRON  
702-W device.  
Primary/Secondary DNS IP: The Domain Name System (DNS) is an Internet "phone book" which  
translates domain names to IP addresses. These fields identify the server IP addresses for the N-TRON 702-  
W device to look for the translation source.  
Primary DNS server IP address should be specified for device management purposes.  
Secondary DNS server IP address is optional. It is used as the fail-over in case the primary DNS server will  
become unresponsive.  
DHCP Fallback IP: If the Bridge is placed in Dynamic IP Address mode (DHCP) and is unable to obtain  
an IP address from a valid DHCP server, it will fall back to this static IP address.  
If the IP settings of the N-TRON 702-W powered device are unknown, they can be retrieved with the help  
of the N-TRON Discovery Utility. Multi-platform Utility should be started on the administrator PC which  
resides on the same network segment as the N-TRON 702-W device.  
The N-TRON 702-W system will return to the default IP configuration (192.168.1.202/255.255.255.0) if the  
Reset to defaults routine is initiated.  
Spanning Tree Protocol: Multiple interconnected bridges create larger networks using the IEEE 802.1d  
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), which is used for finding the shortest path within the network and to  
eliminate loops from the topology.  
If the STP is turned on, the N-TRON 702-W Bridge will communicate with other network devices by  
sending and receiving Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDU). STP should be turned off (selected by default)  
when the N-TRON 702-W device is the only bridge on the LAN or when there are no loops in the topology  
as there is no sense for the bridge to participate in the Spanning Tree Protocol in this case. Note that STP  
is only supported with WEP encryption.

Router Mode  
IP Address: This is the IP address to be represented by the wireless interface of the 702-W.  
Netmask: This is used to define the host and device classification for the chosen IP address range.  
255.255.255.0 is a typical value.  
Enable NAT: Network Address Translation (NAT) enables packets to be sent from the outside world to the  
wireless interface IP address and then sub-routed to other client devices residing on its local network.  
Enable DHCP Server: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Server assigns IP addresses to  
clients who will associate to the wireless interface.  
Range Start/End: This range will determine the IP addresses given out by the DHCP server to associated  
client devices.  
Netmask: DHCP Netmask  
Lease Time: The IP addresses given out by the DHCP server will only be valid for the duration specified by  
the lease time. Increasing the time ensures client operation without interrupt, but could introduce potential  
conflicts. Lowering the lease time will avoid potential address conflicts, but may cause slight interruptions  
to the client while re-acquiring a new IP addresses from the server.  
Port Forwarding: Port forwarding allows specific ports of the WLAN IP address to be forwarded to  
different IP addresses on the same network. This is useful for applications such as FTP servers, HTTP  
servers, etc. where different host systems want to be seen using a single common IP address.  
PPPoE: Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a virtual private and secure connection between  
two systems which enables encapsulated data transport. It is commonly used as the medium for subscribers  
to connect to Internet Service Providers.  
Enable DMZ: The Demilitarized zone (DMZ) can be used as a place where services can be placed such as  
Web Servers, Proxy Servers, and E-mail Servers such that these services can still serve the local network  
and are at the same time isolated from it for additional security.  
MULITCAST ROUTING SETTINGS  
With a multicast design, applications can send one copy of each packet and address it to the group of  
computers that want to receive it. This technique addresses packets to a group of receivers rather than to a  
single receiver, and is dependent on the network to forward the packets to only the networks that need to  
receive them.

Advanced Page  
This page handles advanced routing and wireless settings. The Advanced options page allows you to  
manage advanced settings that influence the device performance and behavior. The advanced wireless  
settings are for more technically advanced users who have sufficient knowledge about wireless LAN  
technology. These settings should not be changed unless you know what effect the changes will have on  
your device.  
Advanced Wireless Settings  
RTS Threshold: determines the packet size of a transmission and, through the use of an access point, helps  
control traffic flow. The valid range is 0-2347bytes, or “off”. The default value is 2347 which means RTS is  
disabled.  
RTS/CTS (Request to Send / Clear to Send) is the mechanism used by the 802.11 wireless networking  
protocol to reduce frame collisions introduced by the hidden terminal problem. RTS/CTS packet size  
threshold is 0-2347 octets. If the packet size the node wants to transmit is larger than the threshold, the  
RTS/CTS handshake is triggered. If the packet size is equal to or less than threshold the data frame is sent  
immediately  
Fragmentation Threshold: specifies the maximum size of a packet before data is fragmented into multiple  
packets. The valid range is 256-2346 bytes, or the word “off”. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low  
may result in poor network performance. Only minor modifications of this value are recommended, the  
default setting of 2346 should remain in most cases.  
The use of fragmentation can increase the reliability of frame transmissions. Because sending smaller  
frames, collisions are much less likely to occur. The fragment size should typically be set between 256 and  
2,048 bytes.  
Aggregation: Allows a much larger "burst" of frame data to be sent. Note: Aggregation will disable  
multicast traffic from crossing the radio link and may change the order in which packets are sent across the  
link (not recommended for controls networks) so it should only be used with a protocol that supports  
reordering of packets like TCP.  
Enable Extra Reporting: Un-check this if you are having problems with Intel Chipset wireless cards  
Enable Client Isolation: This option allows packets only to be sent from the router to the CPE. In other  
words, CPE's on the same network as the AP will not be able to see each other.

Acknowledgment Timeout  
N-TRON 702-W has an auto-acknowledgment timeout algorithm which dynamically optimizes the  
acknowledgment timeout value without user intervention. This is a critical feature required for stabilizing  
long-distance outdoor links. The user has the ability to enter the value manually, but this is not  
recommended.  
Distance: specify the distance value in miles using slider or enter the value manually. The signal strength  
and throughput falls off with range. Changing the distance value will change the ACK Timeout to the  
appropriate value of the distance. The ACK timeout is calculated in microseconds and should take into  
consideration the round trip flight time over the air.  
ACK Timeout: specify the ACK Timeout. This is the amount of time the subscriber station will wait to  
hear an acknowledgment response from the wireless device after the data packet is transmitted. If the  
timeout is set too short or too long, it will result in poor connection and throughput performance.  
Changing the ACK Timeout value will change the Distance to the appropriate distance value for the ACK  
Timeout.  
The Auto Adjust control will enable the ACK Timeout Self-Configuration feature. If enabled, the ACK  
Timeout value will be derived dynamically using an algorithm similar to the Conservative Rate Algorithm  
described above.  
Antenna Alignment LED Thresholds  
The LED's on the 702-W can turn on the LED when received signal levels reach the values defined in the  
following fields. This allows a technician to easily deploy an N-TRON 702-W CPE without logging into the  
unit.  
LED 1 (Green) will switch on if the dBm reach the set value (Default = -30dBm).  
LED 2 (Green) will switch on if the dBm reach the set value (Default = -60dBm).  
LED 3 (Orange) will switch on if the dBm reach the set value (Default = -70dBm).  
LED 4 (Red) will switch on if the dBm reach the set value (Default = -90dBm).  
Only 1 LED will light at a given moment in time to show signal level in the order above.  
EX: Power Received = -46dBm  
LED Configuration:  
LED1  
LED2  
LED3  
LED4  
-40dBm  
-50dBm  
-60dBm  
-70dBm  
In this situation LED2 will be illuminated because the signal is worse then the threshold of LED1 and better  
than the threshold of LED2.

Wireless Traffic Shaping  
Wireless Traffic shaping feature is dedicated for upstream and downstream bandwidth control while looking  
from the client (connected on Ethernet interface) perspective.  
Traffic Shaping: The traffic can be limited by the N-TRON 702-W in the upload and download  
direction based on a user defined rate limit for each direction.  
Enable Traffic Shaping: control will enable bandwidth control on the device.  
Incoming Traffic Limit: specify the maximum bandwidth in kbps for traffic passing from the  
wireless interface to the Ethernet interface.  
Outgoing Traffic Limit: specify the maximum bandwidth in kbps for traffic passing from the  
Ethernet interface to the wireless interface.

Service Page  
This page covers the configuration of the following system management services; Ping Watchdog, SNMP,  
NTP, Web Server, Telnet Server, SSH Server and System Log.  
Ping WatchDog  
The ping watchdog sets the N-TRON 702-W Device to continuously ping a user defined IP address (for  
example the Internet gateway). If it is unable to ping under the user defined constraints, the N-TRON 702-  
W device will automatically reboot. This option decreases the likelihood of failure using a relative "fail-  
proof" mechanism.  
Ping Watchdog is dedicated for continuous monitoring of a particular connection to a remote host using the  
Ping tool. Ping works by sending ICMP “echo request” packets to the target host and listening for ICMP  
“echo response” replies. If the defined number of replies is not received, the tool reboots the device.  
Enable Ping Watchdog: control will enable the Ping Watchdog Tool.  
IP Address To Ping: specify an IP address of the target host which will be monitored by the Ping  
Watchdog Tool.  
Ping Interval: specify a time interval (in seconds) between the ICMP “echo requests” sent by the  
Ping Watchdog Tool.  
Startup Delay: specify initial time delay (in seconds) until the first ICMP “echo requests” are sent  
by the Ping Watchdog Tool. The value of the Startup Delay should be at least 60 seconds as the  
network interface and wireless connection initialization takes a considerable amount of time if the  
device is rebooted.  
Failure Count To Reboot: specify the number of ICMP “echo response” replies. If the specified  
number of ICMP “echo response” packets is not received continuously, the Ping Watchdog Tool will  
reboot the device.

SNMP Agent  
Simple Network Monitor Protocol (SNMP) is used in network management systems to monitor network-  
attached devices for conditions that warrant administrative attention. The N-TRON 702-W contains an  
SNMP agent which allows it to communicate to SNMP managed applications for network provisioning.  
The SNMP Agent provides an interface for device monitoring using the Simple Network Management  
Protocol (an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between  
network devices). The SNMP Agent allows network administrators to monitor network performance, find  
and troubleshoot network problems. For the purpose of equipment identification, it is always a good idea to  
configure SNMP agents with contact and location information:  
Enable SNMP Agent: control will enable the SNMP Agent.  
SNMP Community: specify SNMP community string. It is required to authenticate access to MIB  
objects and functions as embedded password. The device supports a Read-only community string  
that gives read access to authorized management stations of all objects in the MIB except  
community strings, write access is not allowed.  
Contact: specify the identity or the contact for notification of emergency situations.  
Location: specify the physical location of the device.

NTP Client, Web Server, Telnet Server  
NTP Client: The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer  
systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. It can be used to set the N-TRON 702-W  
internal clock.  
Web Server: the following N-TRON 702-W Device Web Server parameters can be set:  
Use Secure Connection (HTTPS): If checked Web server will use secure HTTPS mode. HTTP mode is  
selected by default.  
Secure Server Port: Web Server TCP/IP port setting while using HTTPS mode.  
Server Port: Web Server TCP/IP port setting while using HTTP mode.  
Telnet Server: the following N-TRON 702-W Device Telnet Server parameters can be set:  
Enable Telnet Server: Enables Telnet access to the N-TRON 702-W Device.  
Server Port: Telnet service TCP/IP port setting.  
System Log: Logs system information locally and/or to a remote logging server.  
Enable Log: Enables local logging for the device.  
Enable Remote Log: Enables remote logging to a specified logging server.

TRON NEITHER ASSUMES NOR AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR IT ANY OTHER LIABILITY IN  
CONNECTION WITH THE SALE, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE OR USE OF ITS PRODUCTS. N-TRON SHALL NOT BE  
LIABLE UNDER THIS WARRANTY IF ITS TESTING AND EXAMINATION DISCLOSE THAT THE ALLEGED DEFECT OR

their entirety, they will be limited to the duration of the applicable written warranty. This warranty gives you specific legal rights which  
may vary depending on local law.
