ePMP Subscriber Module (SM) Dashboard

Attribute

Meaning

Device Name

The configured device name of the SM, used for identifying the device in an NMS such as the Cambium Network Services Server (CNSS).

Operating Frequency

The current operating frequency.

Operating Channel Bandwidth

The current operating width of the channel used for the radio link.

Transmitter Output Power

The current power level at which the SM is transmitting (which is adjusted dynamically by the AP based on radio conditions).

Antenna Gain

The configured gain of the external antenna.

Country

The current configured country code, which has an effect on DFS operation and transmit power restrictions. Registered Subscriber Modules will inherit this country code when registration is complete (unless SM is locked to US region).

Subscriber Module Mode

TDD: The SM is operating in the proprietary TDD mode and will only connect to another ePMP Access Point.

Standard WiFi: The SM is operating in the Standard 802.11n WiFi mode and will be able to connect to any Access Point operating in standard WiFi mode.

ePTP Slave: The SM is operating as a Slave in point-to-point mode. The AP and the system do not support GPS Synchronization in this mode but are able to provide significantly lower latency than other modes. QoS (MIR and traffic priority) capability and Link Quality/Capacity indicators are not available in this mode.

Subscriber Module Priority

The configured priority of the SM in the sector.

Network Mode

Bridge: The SM acts as a switch, and packets are forwarded or filtered based on their MAC destination address.

NAT: The SM acts as a router, and packets are forwarded or filtered based on their IP header (source or destination) which can be grouped into subnets for finer granularity.

Router: The SM acts as a router and packets are forwarded or filtered based on their IP header (source or destination) using specific static routes and IP aliases configured by the operator.

Downlink RSSI

The Received Signal Strength Indicator, which is a measurement of the power level being received by the SM’s antenna.

Downlink SNR

The Signal to Noise Ratio, which is an expression of the carrier signal quality with respect to signal noise and co-channel interference (or both).

Uplink MCS

Modulation and Coding Scheme – indicates the modulation mode used for the radio uplink, based on radio conditions (MCS 1-7, 9-15).

Downlink MCS

Modulation and Coding Scheme – indicates the modulation mode used for the radio downlink, based on radio conditions (MCS 1-7, 9-15).

cnMaestro Remote Management

Indicates whether the device is currently configured to be managed by the Cambium cloud management system – cnMaestro™.

cnMaestro Connection Status

The current management status of the device with respect to the Cambium Cloud Server. When Enabled under Configuration->System, the device will be managed by the Cambium Remote Management System, which allows all Cambium devices to be managed from the Cambium Cloud Server.

cnMaestro Account ID

The ID that the device is currently using to be managed by the Cambium Cloud Server.

Wireless MAC Address

The MAC address of the device Wireless interface.

Ethernet MAC Address

The MAC address of the device LAN (Ethernet) interface.

IP Address

The current configured device IP address (LAN, Ethernet interface) used for management access.

IPv6 Link Local Address

A link-local address is required for the IPv6-enabled interface (applications may rely on the link-local address even when there is no IPv6 routing).  The IPv6 link-local address is comparable to the auto-configured IPv4 address 169.254.0.0/16.

IPv6 Address

The IPv6 address for the device when the device is used in Bridge mode. This is the IPv6 address for the subnet associated with the Ethernet interface when the device is used in NAT and Router modes.

Wireless IP Address

The current configured device IP address (Wireless interface), when the SM is in Router (NAT) mode.

Separate Wireless Management IP Address

The current configured device IP address (Separate Wireless Management interface) used for management access, when the SM is in Router (NAT) mode.

Date and Time

The current date and time on the device, subject to the configuration of parameter Time Zone.  If an NTP server is not specified, the date and time will begin from factory default upon radio startup.

System Uptime

The total uptime of the radio since the last reset.

System Description

The current configured system description.

Registered AP SSID

The AP SSID of the AP to which the SM is registered.

Registered AP MAC Address

The Wireless MAC Address of the AP to which the SM is registered.

Device Coordinates

The current configured Latitude and Longitude coordinates in decimal format.

DFS Status

Current DFS operational status.

Link Quality (Uplink)

The Uplink quality based on the current MCS and Packet Error Rate (PER).

Link Capacity (Uplink)

The uplink capacity based on the current MCS with respect to the highest supported MCS (MCS15).

Ethernet Status

Up:  The Ethernet (LAN) interface is functioning properly. This also displays the current port speed and duplex mode to which the Ethernet port has auto-negotiated to or configured for.

Down:  The Ethernet (LAN) interface is either disconnected or it has encountered an error and is not servicing traffic.

Wireless Status

Up:  The radio (WAN) interface is functioning properly.

Down:  The radio (WAN) interface has encountered an error and is not servicing traffic.
