Attribute

Meaning

General

Device Name

The Device Name is used to identify the SM on the network, and may be retrieved by a NMS such as the Cambium Network Services Server (CNSS).

Webpage Auto Update

Configure the interval for which the device retrieves system statistics for display on the management interface. For example, if this setting is configured to 5 seconds, the statistics and status parameters displayed on the management interface will be refreshed every 5 seconds (default). Webpage Auto Update is a session only configuration change. It is updated with the <Enter> key and is not savable when using the save button.

Web Access

HTTP:  Access to the device management GUI is conducted via HTTP.

HTTPS:  Access to the device management GUI is conducted via HTTPS.

HTTP Port

If Web Service is set to HTTP, configure the port which the device uses to service incoming HTTP requests for management GUI access.

HTTPS Port

If Web Service is set to HTTPS, configure the port which the device uses to service incoming HTTPS requests for management GUI access.

SSH Access

Disabled: If the SSH port to the device is ‘Disabled’, access to the device through SSH is not possible.

Enabled: If the SSH port to the device is ‘Enabled’, Cambium engineers can access the device through SSH which enables them to login to the radio and troubleshoot. SSH port is ‘Enabled’ by default.

Telnet Access

Disabled:  CLI access via telnet is not allowed for the device.

Enabled:  CLI access via telnet is allowed for the device.

MAC-Telnet Access

Disabled:  Disables connections to the radio on the link layer via MAC address from RouterOS or mactelnet-enabled devices.

Enabled:  Enables connections to the radio on the link layer via MAC address from RouterOS or mactelnet-enabled devices.

Note
In order to use MAC-Telnet the first time, the Administrator account password must be changed on the GUI or the CLI. This password can then be used for MAC-Telnet.

MAC-Telnet Protocol

MAC-Telnet:  Use the MAC-Telnet subservice for access

MAC-SSH:  Use the secured MAC-SSH subservice for access

Network Time Protocol (NTP)

IP Assignment

Static:  The device retrieves NTP time data from the servers configured in fields Preferred NTP Server and Alternate NTP Server.

DHCP:  The device retrieves NTP time data from the server IP issued via a network DHCP server.

Preferred NTP Server

Configure primary NTP server IP address from which the device retrieves time and date information.

Alternate NTP Server

Configure secondary or alternate NTP server IP address from which the device retrieves time and date information.

Time Zone

The Time Zone option may be used to offset the received NTP time to match the operator’s local time zone.

Location Services

Device Latitude

Configure Latitude information for the device in decimal format.

Device Longitude

Configure Longitude information for the device in decimal format.

Device Height

Configure the Height above sea level for the device, in meters.

Device Location

Hyperlink to display the device location on Google Maps

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

Read-Only Community String

Specify a community string that allows a Network Management Station (NMS) such as the Cambium Networks Services Server (CNSS) to read SNMP information. No spaces are allowed in this string. This password will never authenticate an SNMP user or an NMS to read/write access.

The SNMP Read-only Community String value is clear text and is readable by a packet monitor.

Read-Write Community String

Specify a community string that allows a Network Management Station (NMS) to not only read SNMP information but also write SNMP values that are defined as writeable in the radio. No spaces are allowed in this string.

System Name

Specify a string to associate with the physical module. This parameter can be polled by the Cambium Networks Services Server (CNSS) or an NMS. Special characters are supported.

System Description

Specify a description string to associate with the physical module. This parameter can be polled by the Cambium Networks Services Server (CNSS) or an NMS. Special characters are supported.

Traps

Disabled: With this setting, the radio does not send traps

Enabled: Setting this enables the radio to send SNMP traps to the configured SNMP Trap Server.

Trap Community String

Specify a control string to match the Trap Community String on the SNMP Trap server. No spaces are allowed in this string.

Trap Servers

The SNMP Trap Servers table contains all of the SNMP Trap servers the radio can send SNMP traps.
Configure the IP Address which the device uses to send SNMP traps.

Server IP

Specify up to four SNMP Trap Servers to which the device will send SNMP traps.

Server Port

Configure port which the device uses to send SNMP traps.

System Logging (Syslog)

Server 1-4

Specify up to four syslog servers to which the device sends syslog messages.

SysLog Mask

Configure the levels of syslog messages which the devices send to the servers configured in parameters Syslog Server IP 1-4

cnMaestro

Remote Management

When Enabled, the device will be managed by cnMaestro - the Cambium Remote Management System, which allows all Cambium devices to be managed in the cloud.

cnMaestro URL

Configure the URL of cnMaestro. The default value is https://cloud.cambiumnetworks.com.

Cambium ID

Configure the Cambium ID that the device will use for on-boarding on to cnMaestro.

Onboarding key

Configure the password/key associated with the Cambium-ID that the device will use for on-boarding on to cnMaestro.
