Chapter 2: Infrastructure Device Installation Infrastructure Device Assembly Figure 2-4 shows the external connection points for a MOTOMESH Duo 4300 device. The figure below it shows some examples of optional personality plugs (Black – Canopy Connect PoE, and Standards based 802.3 af PoE Grey). A red Hardware Reset Plug (not shown below) is also available and is used to reset a stranded 4300 device back to its factory default configuration.
Figure 2-6 Side View (B) of the 4300 Device’s External Connection Points Figure 2-7 Side View (A) of the 4300 Device’s External Connection Points Infrastructure Device Deployment and Installation MOTOMESH devices require professional installation to ensure that the installation is performed in accordance with Motorola installation standards.
Chapter 2: Infrastructure Device Installation • The antenna must have a separation distance of at least 2 meters from the body of all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. • Users and installers must be provided with antenna installation and transmitter operating conditions to satisfy RF exposure compliance.
Adjust the position of the box so that the antenna connecters are positioned vertically. Align the antennas with the N-type connectors on the box and rotate to close. Insert the cable into the external Ethernet port and tighten the connector to ensure a weatherproof seal. Insert the Power Plug into the 4-pin connector.

Chapter 3: Device Configuration ..........This chapter includes the following sections: Pre-staging a MOTOMESH Duo 4300 device in MeshManager Demoting and Promoting an IAP...
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Procedure 3-1 Configuring a 4300 Device Mesh Ensure that all the 4300 devices are wire-connected to the MOTOMESH 2.0 MiSC. NOTE: It is recommended that the 4300 devices are set-up on the bench prior to actual deployment in the field. The MOTOMESH 2.0 MeshManager element management application must be installed and running.
MOTOMESH DUO 2.0 4300 Users Guide Select the Probe button after entering the device’s Ethernet MAC address. The probing operation will ensure that the device is communicating with the MiSC in addition to capturing the other MAC Addresses. Figure 3-3 Selecting the Probe Button in MeshManager July 2007...
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Note that after initial Probing during the Add New Device process, the 802.11 b/g Radio and Mesh are both ENABLED by default, and the 802.11 a Radio and Mesh are both DISABLED by default. Figure 3-4 Examining Initial Device Defaults in MeshManager To configure an 802.11 b/g mesh network, a license key is not required.
To enable the 802.11 a Radio and Mesh devices (4300-54 and 4300-58). Select the 802.11 a Radio Active check box AND the Mesh Enabled check box. NOTE: Selecting the 802.11 a Radio and Mesh check boxes will automatically cause the 802.11 b/g Radio checkbox to remain enabled while the Mesh Enabled checkbox will be de-selected.
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Minimize MeshManager temporarily as you will return to it shortly. There are still tasks that must be performed in MeshManager to complete the Adding and Changing of a New Device from an 802.11 b/g Mesh into a 802.11 a Mesh network. Open the License Key text file that was provided with your MOTOMESH DUO 2.0 Product CDs.
MOTOMESH DUO 2.0 4300 Users Guide Paste the previously copied License key into the 802.11a License Key entry field in MeshManager. Figure 3-9 Pasting the License Key into MeshManager July 2007...
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Configure the 802.11 a Membership VLAN by entering 0-4095 into the 802.11 a Membership VLAN entry field. IMPORTANT NOTE: The minimum requirement for this field is 4095, which is the initial designated Management VLAN. IMPORTANT NOTE: If the NEW Device is to be a 2.4/4.9 Mesh, the 802.11 a Membership VLAN entry field will become disabled.
Decide if you want the device to be an IAP or an MWR on your network. The Device is an IAP checkmark is ENABLED by Default. If you wish to Add a device to the Network as a MWR, simply uncheck the check box associated with this selection. IMPORTANT NOTE: All MOTOMESH Duo 4300 devices are initially preconfigured as IAPs.
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Enter an optional deployed location description into the Deployed Location entry field. Follow your company’s device network naming conventions. Figure 3-13 Entering an Optional Deployed Location All of the Device configuration selections should now be completed. Select the Add button to formally add the device to the Network.
Observe the Progress Log for any errors. Notice that the new device is now shown in the IAP group in the Device Tree in MeshManager. Figure 3-15 After Adding a Device to the Mesh To verify the new device configuration, select the Probe button again to re-probe the device. IMPORTANT NOTE: If there are any errors at the time that a device is added, performing a re-probe will confirm a successful configuration.
Chapter 3: Device Configuration A successfully configured device will display the same information in the entry fields and check boxes that were intended when configuring the device. Incorrectly displayed entry fields or check boxes will be a sign of a failed device configuration. You can also check the progress log for the following characteristics: - 802.11 a radio status enabled - 802.11 a mesh status enabled...
Demoting an IAP Device to a MWR ..........The following is a step by step procedure that describes how to demote an existing IAP device to an MWR, and then promote it back to an IAP.
Chapter 3: Device Configuration From the newly opened Promote/Demote dialog box, select Yes to continue demoting the device, or select IMPORTANT NOTE: Careful consideration should be taken prior to demoting an IAP with respect to VLAN configurations. Precautions must be taken to prevent a loop condition from occurring in the network.
To Promote the device back to an IAP, right-click on the device in the Device Tree and choose Promote to an IAP from the pop-up menu. From the newly opened Promote/Demote dialog box, select Yes to continue promoting the device, or select No.
Chapter 3: Device Configuration Device Recovery Settings The MOTOMESH Duo device recovery default settings (VAP 15) have the following conditions: Authentication Type– WPA-AUTO-PSK Cipher Mode- Passphrase- Static IP Address- IP network mask- SSID- SSID Suppression- If you change any of the default settings for VAP15, make sure that when it is time to recover your MOTOMESH Duo Device that the Client Access Card is set to match your current network settings for Device Recovery (VAP15).
