Backhaul Link Configuration
This command copies the value of the currently associated backhaul radio MAC
address to the peer MAC address.
Statically Configuring
the Peer Backhaul Radio
MAC Address
The peer backhaul radio MAC address can be set with the desired remote
backhaul radio’s MAC address with the following command:
set brm<n> peer mac address <mac address>
Example
/radio# set brm1 peer mac address 00:0d:67:00:21:8f
The backhaul radio can only associate itself with a remote backhaul radio with
the specified MAC address.
Discarding the
Associated Backhaul
Radio MAC Address
If the backhaul radio has associated itself with an undesired backhaul radio, the
current associated backhaul radio MAC address can be discarded, so that the
pre-configured peer can become associated. To do so, use the following
command:
discard brm<n> associated mac address
Example
/radio# discard brm1 associated mac address
/radio# show associated mac address
00:00:00:00:00:00
Changing the Peer
Backhaul Radio MAC
Address
To change the value of the peer backhaul radio MAC address, use the following
command:
discard brm<n> peer mac address
This command sets the desired peer backhaul radio MAC address to
null
and
also discards the associated backhaul radio MAC address, dis-associating any
existing link.
After discarding the peer MAC address, any remote backhaul radio
appropriately configured (with matching SSID, physical channel, and
complementary mode) can associate with the local backhaul radio. To prevent
this, set the peer MAC address with the desired remote backhaul radio’s
address as shown previously.
