Chapter 1 Introduction
The MAP-2105 is a mobile IP roaming gateway which is specifically designed for PLANET
wireless mesh network. It offers the full “mobility” to all users. Not like the layer-2 only capability in
ordinary AP, the “mobility” defined in MAP-2105 is the ability of a user to change its attached
node from one mesh AP to another while maintaining all existing communications and using the
same IP address at this new link. Remote printing, remote login, VoIP sessions, and file transfers
are some examples of applications whose communications are undesirable to interrupt when a
mobile user moves from node to node.

The MAP-2105 should connect to the network that provide DHCP services (the first time
installation) In this guide, we will base on XRT-401D (Internet Broadband Router) as the example
for DHCP server, switch and router, this installation can vary on the network planning.
The MAP-2105 should be installed in the same subnet to the Mesh Gateway for optimal
performance.
The MAP-2105 is optimized for 500-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
Note
that the clients implement.
1.4 Hardware Installation
1. Using Category 3 or higher UTP or STP cable, connect the WAN port of MAP-2105 to a
10Mbps or 10/100Mbps Ethernet hub or switch, and connect the management station to a
hub or switch on the same LAN.
2. Connect the power adapter to the receptor on MAP-2105 and plug the other end to a wall
outlet or power strip.
ONLY use the power adapter supplied with the MAP-2105. Otherwise, the
product may be damaged.
Note
1.5 Startup the MAP-2105
To get the first management of the MAP-2105, please follow the following steps.
1. Connect the MAP-2105’s WAN port to the network where can provide the DHCP services.
For example, connect to the LAN port of XRT-401D.
2. Power on a PC that also connects to the LAN port of the XRT-401D with DHCP or fixed IP
address.
3. Open the Internet browser and go to the DHCP status page of XRT-401D to check the WAN
IP address of the MAP-2105.
WAN MAC Address of
MAP-2105
4. Check the MAC address from the Web page and also the MAC address label of the MAP-
2105. For example, 09-64 as the figure above.

Chapter 4 Management Utility
The PLANET MLRD Management Suite is a Java-based software application designed
specifically to manage the MAP-2105 which act as a server for the mesh nodes with the Mobile IP
feature.
Generally, the MLRD Management Suite is consists of three major sections, the AP-Finder, Trap
Viewer and MLRD Manager. The AP Finder is utilized as a scanner to discover the MAP-2105
within the subnet. Trap Viewer is able to receive and log the alarms sent by the nodes. And the
MLRD Manager is used to configure the nodes through Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP).
4.1 Installation and Un-installation
4.1.1 To install the MLRD Management Suite
To install the MLRD Management Suite on your terminal, grab the MLRD_installer.exe application
file found on the accompanying CD-ROM to any desired directory. Double-click the application file
to start up the installation. After completely extracting, a loading window would show on the
screen, as illustrated:

button is hit.
2. Uninstalling – The un-installation is in progress. Note that every files and folder created
during the installation will be removed.
3. Uninstall Complete – Un-installation completed successfully.
4.2 How to use MLRD Management Suite
4.2.1 AP Finder
The AP Finder is used to discover the IP Address of the MAP-2105 available in the subnet. The
figure below illustrates the outlook of the AP Finder.
In order to start scanning for the nodes, select the Scan button at the right pane of the AP Finder.
The system will search for the available MAP-2105 and display at the table. Alternatively, user
can start the AP-scan by select the Actions > Scan Start from the menu bar.
On the other hand, the Stop button, or Actions > Scan Stop at the menu bar is used to cancel
the scan.
Check the Auto Rescan option in between the Scan and Stop button to enable the scanning
process restart automatically after sleep for certain period. User can configure this feature via
Settings > Auto-Rescan option from the menu bar as well.
To set the time interval for rescanning, choose Settings > Rescan Interval from the menu bar. A
window will be pop-up to prompt the user to enter the desired duration in seconds, as shown at
the following figure.
39
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The status bar located at the bottom of the AP Finder is displaying the status of the scanning
process. While the –Select Adapter- drop down list, allow user to choose the adapter to configure
the nodes. Two options are available: MLRD Manager or Web-based Configuration Page.
4.2.2 Trap Viewer
The trap viewer is used to catch the alarm or trap send from the MAP-2105, which have their trap
destination IP Address set to the user’s IP Address. In the MLRD Management Suite, user can
switch between the AP Finder and Trap Viewer by selecting the tab at the left bottom corner.
Alternatively, this can be done by choosing View > AP Finder or View > Trap Viewer to toggle
between the pages.
The following figure display the layout of the Trap Viewer.
40
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
In order to start listen to the alarms, hit on the Start button. The foreground of the Start button will
turn to green color when the trap viewer is running. Conversely, select the Stop button to disable
the Trap Viewer, where the foreground of the Stop button changes to red color. The traps
received will be displayed at the table provided.
The table displays the trap’s description, source IP Address, trap severity and the time it is caught.
For more details regarding the trap, select the desired row and click on the info button. A dialog
box will pop-up and display more details of the node, as shown by the following figure.
These traps should be deleted once they are reviewed or resolved. In order to delete the trap
from the table, select the desired row or rows, and click on the Clear button.
By default, every alarm shown in the table will be logged into a file, named Alarm_Default in the
TrapLog folder at the application directory. However, options are available for the users to write
into a different file or even disable the log feature. To change a log file, enter a new file name at
41

the Output File Name text box in the Settings column and press the Set button. Besides, choose
Settings > Output Filename from the menu bar would open a window to prompt the user for the
new log file name.
To disable the log feature, uncheck the Write to File check box in the Settings column and hit the
Set button, or uncheck the Settings > Write to File menu item from the menu bar. Under this
circumstance, the alarms deleted from the Trap Viewer will be gone forever.
The remaining two setting option in the Settings column is the Port and Community. The Port
defines the port number of the system to listen to the alarms, while the Community defines the
password to match the community of incoming traps. Similarly, user can fill in the value in the
space provided and hit the Set button or select from the menu bar.
4.2.3 MLRD Manager
The MLRD Manager is the configuration pages of a MAP-2105. User may open the MLRD
Manager to update or edit the settings of the node. In order to start up the MLRD Manager,
choose the MLRD Manager from the drop-down list at the left bottom corner of AP-Finder, as
shown:
This action will open window to prompt the user for the SNMP Passwords. The configurations can
only be done with the correct password or community. Note that the MLRD Manager is supporting
SNMP Version 1, 2c and 3. Thus for SNMP Version 1 or 2c, only the Community field is
compulsory, whereas for SNMP Version 3, the Username, Password and Pass Phrase fields is
required to be filled.

4.3 Node Configuration using MLRD Manager
The MLRD Manager is a Java-based graphical interface application that allow user to perform
configuration of the specific MAP-2105. The configurations are done via Small Network
Management Protocol (SNMP). Besides, it also supports some action commands, for instance
download/upload, reboot and reset the factory settings for the particular node
As overall, the MLRD Manager consists of 5 submenus: File, Status, Config, Command and Help.
4.3.1 File >Change SNMP Password
