M!DGE – RipEX – RipEX
In this test, we will demonstrate the interconnectivity of M!DGE and RipEX units. You need to have at
least two RipEX units (e.g. RipEX A, B) configured as described in Chapter Section 3.5, “RipEX Wizard
Configuration”.
You can have M!DGE in the default state (just after successful login procedure). Connect your PC to
the M!DGE ETH2 interface and set the PC to obtain the IP address by DHCP.
The M!DGE unit should provide the PC with an IP address from the
192.168.2.0/24
range, e.g.
192.168.2.108
.
Note
See Chapter Section 3.6, “RipEX Practical Tests” to know how to configure your PC and
execute a ping command.
Fig. 3.38: M!DGE – RipEX – RipEX connectivity
Open your web browser and type in the M!DGE IP address (http://192.168.2.1). After successful login,
go to the
SYSTEM → Troubleshooting → Network Debugging
menu.
Fill in the RipEX B IP address (192.168.1.102) and click on the Start button. You should see successful
ping attempts between the M!DGE unit and the remote RipEX unit. The ping packets are transmitted
over the Ethernet cable to the local RipEX and via the radio link to the remote RipEX and back again.
