Agenda Forskellen på Meru og alle de andre producenter. Vores produkt portofølge. Hvilken produkter til hvilke typer af krav. Eksempler på nogle typiske konfigurationer. NSP – Support – Partner Status Og forhåbentlig en lang række spørgsmål undervejs.

Kort om WiFi og hvorfor Meru

Radio Physics Review Transmission on channels (similar to individual wires) Typically multiple channels available at once Channel is a shared medium (like a hub) Contention for access Radio is half-duplex Throughput is divided amongst all wireless devices Airtime is most precious resource Transmission subject to RF interference

WiFi Review – Roaming Wired LAN (Ethernet) Channel 1 Channel 6 Station B BSSID=xx:xx:xx:xx Station A BSSID=xx:zz:zz:zz:zz Channel 1 Channel 6

WiFi Review – Roaming Station A is associated with AP 1 and decides to move towards AP 2. Wired LAN (Ethernet) Station B VC: BSSID=xx:xx:xx:xx Station A VC: BSSID=xx:xx:xx:xx Channel 1 Channel 1

Channel design for service 1st kanal lag til interne brugere, 2nd kanal lag er til VoIP. 3rd kanal lag er til private enheder

Support generelt Support.merunetworks.com, skal have en konto Mail til support@merunetworks.com og der oprettes en ticket. Hvis hardware fejl sender support sagen videre til RMA Med controller replacement aftale sendes ny controller til kunde, hvorefter kunde sender den defekte retur. Der kommer en ”tom” controller som kunde/partner skal sætte i drift...... På AP’er er der lifetime warrenty, med sende ind service, efter RMA godkendelse i support.

Standard omni-directional antenne Beam Forming Sender signalet I retning af klienten. Giver øget dækning ved samme båndbredde Fordelen er når klienter befinder sig ved kanten af et AP’s dækning Specielt vigtigt for MU-MIMO Men men, der er begrænset effekt når AP og klient er tætte (RSSI > -60) Klient 1 Klient 2 Meru 11ac Standard omni-directional antenne

Design af Meru net

Configuration Topology Goal is to push wireless service parameters out to access points “Profiles” contain sets of configuration parameters The arrows show information flow Not necessarily a 1-to-1 mapping between profiles Actually ESS-Interface Tables

Best Practice - kanal valg ,, Virtual Cell ol.. Check at parent BSSID er ens pr. radio interface Via ESS-AP table Fra SD 5.3 kan vi på AP1000/AP332 vælge mellem 2 typer af Virtuel Cell: VC = shared BSSID (default setting) VP = privat BSSID

Check ap kommandoer m.m. Show ap-neighbor (4 kolonner L1,L2,L3,L4) Show ap-neighbor ap-id interface-id Show ap-neighbor 5 2 (ap-id 5 og interface 2 (5Ghz)) Station dashboard: signal strength På radio diagnostics kan noice level ses Til sammen giver det SnR. Helst over 20. 25 ved voice Radio dashboard: channel utilization Packet loss / retry

Backup af controllere Show controller Copy running-config startup-config Copy running-config filnavn Filnavn = for eksempel dato-v-SD-version.cfg 091112-5096.cfg Copy running-config ftp://kunde-091112-5096.cfg Så kan vi begynde at opgradere

Opgradering af controllere Show controller Show flash (viser hvilke software image der er på controller) Copy ftp://bruger:pwd@ip-på-ftp/filnavn . Filnavn = meru-5.1-90-MC1500-rpm.tar Show flash Configure terminal -> Auto-ap-upgrade disable Upgrade controller 5.1-90 => reboot controller Upgrade ap same all Configure terminal -> Auto-ap-upgrade enable
