Installation wizard
The web-based interface includes an Installation wizard. This feature simplifies the process
of entering initial configuration details, setting the system into alignment mode, achieving
the lowest possible link loss through correct antenna alignment, and reporting on the
performance of the installed link. The process handles the important configuration settings
that must be set to comply with individual license conditions. These important settings are
not normally modified in an operating link, and cannot be changed in PTP 800 except
through use of the Installation wizard.
Configuration pages
The web-based interface includes a number of configuration pages. These pages allow for
modification of the system configuration of an installed link. In general, configuration
changes can be completed without a reboot. Configuration pages include controls relating
to the management agent IP interface, the Ethernet interfaces, quality of service at the
wireless interface, security passwords and AES keys.
RADIUS authentication
PTP 800 supports remote authentication for users of the web interface using the
Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) or Microsoft CHAP version 2
(MS-CHAPv2) over the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS). PTP 800
supports connections to primary and secondary RADIUS servers. The RADIUS interface is
configured through the RADIUS Authentication page of the web-based interfaces.
PTP 800 RADIUS supports the standard Service Type attribute to indicate authentication
roles of System Administrator and Read Only together with a vendor specific attribute to
indicate authentication roles of Security Officer, System Administrator, and Read Only.
Remote authentication can be used in addition to local authentication, or can be used as a
replacement for local authentication. If remote and local authentications are used
together, PTP 800 checks log in attempts against locally stored user credentials before
submitting a challenge and response for remote authentication. Remote authentication is
not attempted if the username and password match locally stored credentials.
RADIUS is only available when PTP 800 is configured for Identity-based User Accounts.
