CPE Setup w/NAT and DHCP Auto-Auth
This is my standard CPE setup. We provide a public IP address to the CPE's wpci interface and NAT a private subnet to the customer's LAN.
interface configuration
- Setup the wireless interface.
- interface > wpci1 > ip assignments. Assign your static IP assignments here.
- interface > wpci1 > wireless configuration > config current card.
- ENABLED = Turn your wireless card on or off, select for on.
- ESSID = your essid
- Channel = auto
- Transmit Rate = (<-75 lock on 11)
- Link Distance = (actual +2 miles)
- Country Code = US
- TX Power Overide = Only set as high as you need it. Not above 20.
- Cloaking = 1x/2x/4x - 20/10/5MHz channel sizes. AP and Client must match.
- Antenna Select = Antenna A/B/Diversity - MAIN/AUX/BOTH Radio Antenna Ports.
- HIDE SSID = enable to hide your ESSID from AP scanners.
- InterBSS Relay = enable for client to client communication. Not a good idea.
- Outdoor Only = Channel Display Column will only show outdoor channels.
- Short Preamble = Enable
- Super A/G = Enable
- AP Power Savings = Enable
- Network Type = Station
- Operating Mode = 802.11a/b/g, 802.11b/g mixed or Turbo (select your operating mode)
- WEP Setup
- WEP Mode = Disabled/40/104/128bit
- Passphrase = To generate a wep key using a passphrase.
- WEP Key 1/2/3/4 = WEP Keys must match and they must match the same Key slot as the AP.
- Selct either "Open" or "Shared Key"
- interface > interface feature > "select" enable DHCP client. Your CPE will dynamicly obtain IP address from your AP.
- Setup the ethernet interface
- interfaces > ether1 >
- ip assingments = 192.168.200.1/24
- ethernet link settings = auto/10/100mbps + full duplex on/off
- dhcp auto-auth configurations > configurations =
- Gateway: 192.168.200.1
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- Pri. DNS: 1.2.3.4
- Sec. DNS: 1.2.3.5
- Lease: 1700
- USE Radius = on or off
- create hotspot session = on or off
- IP Range = 192.168.200.100 - 254
- interface features > enable dhcp auto-auth
routing
- Routing > dynamic routing (rip, ospf & mesh) = enable rip
- routing > static and default routes = remove default routes
dns server list
- advanced > dns server list...
- hostname = jdoe
- domain = wisp.domain.net
- name server 1 = 1.2.3.4
- name server 2 = 1.2.3.5
- name server 3 = 1.2.3.6
ntp and timezone
- advanced > ntp and timezone setup...
- offset = enter your offset here (example -06:00)
- NTP Server = ntp.server.net
qshape
- advanced > scripts > class based queing...
example
qshape user 100 bw 1536k 512k 192.168.200.0/24 on ether1
see qshape article for more details
nat and static nat
- advanced > scripts > nat and static nat...
example
masq from 192.168.200.0/24 to dev wpci1
file > activate changes > yes
That's it.
Once you have a working config you like, create a backup using starutil and pre-load your CPEs during assembly.
Comments welcome.
