Enable Neighbor
RSSI to Register
Select this checkbox and click Save Changes to enable the neighbor RSSI registers.
Add Entry
Click to configure a new neighbor RSSI register. A new blank entry is added to the
table. Enter the name, neighbor IP address, and register location, and click
Save
Changes
.
Delete Entry
Click to remove a selected neighbor RSSI register configuration.
Name
A name that describes the neighbor (maximum 32 characters).
Neighbor IP
IP address of the neighbor module that you wish to monitor. The IP address should
be the radio address of the 915U-2 module.
Register
The register location where the RSSI value will be stored.
Save Changes
Save changes to non-volatile memory. The module needs to be restarted for the
changes to take effect.
Save Changes and
Reset
Save settings to non-volatile memory, and reboot 915U-2. Once the module
completes the reboot sequence, all changes are in effect.
IP Routing
Click
IP Routing
on the menu to change IP routing to other 915U-2 modules in other wired or wireless networks.
When a 915U-2 module receives an IP frame that is destined for an IP address on a different network, it checks to
see if the network address matches one of its own interfaces (hard-wired Ethernet, or radio) and forwards the frame
appropriately. However, if the IP network address does not match the network address of any of its interfaces, the
915U-2 will forward the frame to its default gateway. In this case it is assumed that the default gateway has a valid
route to the destination.
In some cases, such as routed wireless networks with more than two 915U-2 routers, it is not practical to have
only one default gateway. If more than one next-hop router is required, the 915U-2 allows for the configuration of
up to 100 routing rules. A routing rule specifies a destination network (or host) IP address and the corresponding
next-hop router (gateway) to which messages for the specified destination will be forwarded. It is assumed that the
gateway will then deliver the data to the required destination, or forward it on to another router that will.
