3.1
Introduction
After completing the installation process, as described in the preceding chapter, several actions should
be performed to ensure connectivity with a base station (BS) and provisioning of services. After the
subscriber unit is connected with a BS, it can be fully managed via the wireless link:
1
The basic parameters must be configured to ensure that the unit operates correctly and can
communicate with a BS.
2
Proper operation should be verified, including data connectivity.
3
The unit must be positioned correctly to ensure optimal performance of the wireless link.
The following methods are available for configuring the unit:
The web-based management interface - accessed using a PC/Notebook with a web browser (see
“Configuring the Unit Using the Web Management Interface” on page 23
).
An automatic configuration tool provided on a CDROM for the subscribers (see
“Configuring the Unit
Using the WiMAX Modem Application CD” on page 26
).
Upgrading the CPE using an auto-configuration file, or IPKG (in *.ipk format) (see
“Configuring the
CPE Using the IPKG Upgrade” on page 30
).
The device may be delivered with the operator’s default settings already configured in the FLASH
memory.
The following parameters must be configured in order for a link to be established.

Configuring the Unit Using the Web Management
Interface
The BreezeMAX PRO 6000 supports multi-user permissions: Operator and Subscriber modes are
available by downloading different configuration files (IPKGs) from the web and upgrading the unit.
Each level has different permissions to access various pages for configuration.
3.2.1
Accessing the Web Management Interface
By default, the BreezeMAX PRO 6000 enables a DHCP server and computers, or network devices
connected to a LAN port, to automatically get an IP address from the unit. If the unit's DHCP server is
disabled, you can set in the PC the IP address, netmask, and gateway manually using the following
values:
IP address: 192.168.254.x ( (1 <
x <
253, excluding 251)
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
1
Open a web browser and enter the Gateway IP address: http://192.168.254.251. The web browser
displays the login page.
2
Enter the user name and password, and click
Login
.
The system supports multi-level user login: Operator and Subscriber, and Debug modes are available.
Each level has different permissions to access various pages for configuration.

item. The displayed pages may vary depending on user privileges.
Use the Main Menu items and the specific sub-items in the menu-bar at the top of the window to
