The WAB-5120 can communicate with wireless devices of 802.11n or 802.11a/n.
HT Protect
Enable HT (High Throughput) protect to ensure HT transmission with MAC mechanism. Under
802.11n mode, wireless client can be divided into HT STA and Non-HT STA, among which the one with HT protect enabled gets higher throughput.
Frequency/Channel
Channel varies much as the available band differs from country to country. Select a proper operating channel in the drop-down list according to your situation
Extension Channel
Only applicable to AP, AP Repeater, and 40MHz channel width indicates the use of channel bonding that allows the WAB-5120 to use two channels at once. Two options are available:
Upper Channel and Lower Channel..
Channel Mode
4 levels are available: 40MHz, 20MHz, 10MHz and 5MHz. 40MHz can enhance data throughput, but it takes more bandwidth, thus it might cause potential interference.
Antenna
By default, the WAB-5120 uses its built-in antenna for directional transmission; however, if you prefer to use an external antenna for your case-dependent applications, you can switch from
“Internal (16 dBi)” to ”SMA Connector”.
When SMA Connector is selected, an Antenna Gain bar will appear to allow you specify the gain of the external antenna. The antenna gain calculates the TX power back off needed to remain in compliance with regulations.
Warning:
You are able to choose “SMA Connector” only from the WEB UI after you have physically installed the external antenna; otherwise, it might damage the unit itself.
Maximum Output Power (per chain):
Specify the signal transmission power. The higher the output power is, the wider the signal can cover, but the power consumption will be greater accordingly.
Note:
The output power here is counted from the RF single chain only not including the 16dBi internal antenna.
The maximum output power will vary depending on the country selected in order to comply with the local regulation.
You are able to choose “SMA Connector” only when you have well done installing the external antenna; otherwise, it might damage the unit itself.
Data Rate
Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, the Wireless Outdoor CPE will automatically select the highest available rate to transmit. In some cases, however, like where there is no great demand for speed, you can have a relatively-low transmit rate for compromise of a long distance.
Extension Channel Protection Mode
This is to avoid conflict with other wireless network and boost the ability of your device to catch all legacy devices transmissions. However, it may decrease wireless network performance.
Compared to CTS-Self; the transmission amount of CTS-RTS is much lower.
Enable MAC Clone
Available in wireless client mode, it hides the MAC address of the CPE while displays the one of associated wireless client or the MAC address designated manually.
Site Survey
Under wireless client mode, the WAB-5120 is able to perform site survey, through which, information on the available access points will be detected.
Open “Basic Settings” in “Wireless”, by clicking the “Site Survey” button beside “Wireless Mode” option, the wireless site survey window will pop up with a list of available wireless networks around.
Select the AP you would like to connect and click “Selected” to establish connection.
Figure 23 Site Survey
VAP Profile Settings
Available in AP mode, the WAB-5120 allows up to 16 virtual SSIDs on a single BSSID and to configure different profile settings such as security and VLAN ID to each SSID.
To create a virtual AP, you may check the Enable box of the profile and click on the profile (eg. Profile 2) to configure wireless and security settings. Hit Apply to active the profile.
Figure 24 VAP Profile Settings
Figure 25 VAP Profile Settings
Basic Setting
Profile Name: Name of the VAP profile
Wireless Network Name: Enter the virtual SSID for the VAP, default is LevelOne.
Broadcast SSID: In AP mode, hiding network name is necessary when you are in a wireless environment that may have potential risk. By disabling broadcast SSID, the STA cannot scan and find the WAB-5120 300Mbps 5G Wireless Outdoor PoE Access Point/Bridge, so that malicious attack by some illegal STA could be avoided.
Wireless Separation: Wireless separation is an ideal way to enhance the security of network transmission. Under the mode except wireless client mode, enable “Wireless Separation” can prevent the communication among associated wireless clients.
WMM Support: WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) is a subset of 802.11e. It allows wireless communication to define a priority limit on the basis of data type under AP mode only, thus those time-sensitive data, like video/audio data, may own a higher priority than common one. To enable WMM, the wireless client should also support it
Max. Station Number: By checking the “Max. Station Num” the CPE will only allow up to 32 wireless clients to associate with. By disabling the checkbox the CPE will allow up to 128 clients to connect, but it is likely to cause network congestion or poor performance.
Security Setting:
To prevent unauthorized radios from accessing data transmitting over the connectivity, the
WAB-5120 300Mbps 5G Wireless Outdoor PoE Access Point/Bridge provides you with rock solid security settings. For detailed information please go to Chapter 4 Wireless Security Setting.
VLAN Tab
If your network uses VLANs, you can assign one SSID to a VLAN, and client devices using the SSID are grouped in that VLAN.
To allow users on the VLAN to access the WEB page of W
AB-5120, you need to enable “Enable 802.1Q
VLAN” and assign a management VLAN ID for your device. Make sure the assigned management
VLAN ID is identical to your network VLAN ID to avoid failures of accessing the Web page of
WAB-5120.
Figure 26 Management VLAN ID
Chapter 4 Advanced Settings
Advanced Wireless Settings
Open “Advanced Settings” in “Wireless” to make advanced wireless settings.
Figure 27 Advanced Wireless Settings
A-MPDU/A-MSDU Aggregation
The data rate of your CPE except wireless client mode could be enhanced greatly with this option enabled; however, if your wireless clients don’t support A-MPDU/A-MSDU aggregation, it is not recommended to enable it.
Short GI
Under 802.11n mode, enable it to obtain better data rate if there is no negative compatibility issue.
RTS Threshold
The WAB-5120 sends RTS (Request to Send) frames to certain receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, that STA responds with a CTS (Clear to Send) frame to acknowledge the right to start transmission. The setting range is 0 to 2346 in byte.
Setting it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave it at its default of 2346 is recommended.
Fragmentation Length
Specify the maximum size in byte for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets.
Setting it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave it at its default of 2346 is recommended.
Beacon Interval
Specify the frequency interval to broadcast packets. Enter a value between 20 and 1024.
DTIM Interval
DTIM, which stands for Delivery Traffic Indication Message, is contained in the data packets. It is for enhancing the wireless transmission efficiency. The default is set to 1. Enter a value between 1 and 255.
IGMP Snooping
Available in AP/Router mode, IGMP snooping is the process of listening to IGMP network traffic.
By enabling IGMP snooping, the AP will listen to IGMP membership reports, queries and leave messages to identify the ports that are members of multicast groups. Multicast traffic will only be forwarded to ports identified as members of the specific multicast group or groups.
RIFS
RIFS (Reduced Inter frame Spacing) is a means of reducing overhead and thereby increasing network efficiency.
Link Integration
Available under AP/Bridge/AP repeater mode, it monitors the connection on the Ethernet port by checking “Enabled”. It can inform the associating wireless clients as soon as the disconnection occurs.
TDM Coordination
Stands for “Time-Division Multiplexing Technique”, this resource reservation control mechanisms can avoid packet collisions and send the packets much more efficiently allowing for higher effective throughput rates. This function is only available in AP/CPE mode. It is highly recommended to enable TDM coordination when there are multiple CPEs needed to connect to the AP in your application.
LAN2LAN CPE
LAN2LAN CPE mode enables packet forwarding at layer 2 level. It is fully transparent for all the
Layer2 protocols.
Space in Meter
To decrease the chances of data retransmission at long distance, the WAB-5120 can automatically adjust proper ACK timeout value by specifying distance of the two nodes.
Flow Control
It allows the administrator to specify the incoming and outgoing traffic limit by checking “Enable
Traffic Shaping”. This is only available in Router mode.
Note:
We strongly recommend you leave most advanced settings at their defaults except
“Distance in Meters” adjusted the parameter for real distance; any modification on them may negatively impact the performance of your wireless network.

Q 1. How to know the MAC address of the WAB-5120 300Mbps 5G Wireless Outdoor PoE
Access Point/Bridge?
MAC Address distinguishes itself by the unique identity among network devices. There are two ways available to know it.
•
Each device has a label posted with the MAC address. Please refer below.
Figure 54 MAC Address
•
On the CPE’s Web-based management interface, you can view the MAC Address from “ View
Basic Information ”.
Q 2. What if I would like to reset the unit to default settings?
You may restore factory default settings in “Configuration File” from “Management”.
Q 3. What if I would like to backup and retrieve my configuration settings?
You may do the backup by generating a configuration file or retrieve the settings you have backed up previously in “Configuration File” from “Management”.
Q 4. What if I cannot access the Web-based management interface?
Please check the followings:
•
Check whether the power supply is OK; Try to power on the unit again.
•
Check whether the IP address of PC is correct (in the same network segment as the unit);
•
Login the unit via other browsers such as Firefox.
•
Hardware reset the unit.
Q 5. In wireless client mode, what if the wireless connection is not stable after associating with an AP?
•
Since the CPE comes with a built-in directional antenna, it is recommended make it face to the direction where the AP is to get the best connection quality.
•
In addition, you can start “Site Survey” in “Wireless Basic Settings” to check the signal strength. If it is weak or unstable (The smaller the number is, the weaker the signal strength is.), please join other available AP for better connection.
