LigoPTP 配置场景

+–点对点 (PTP)
PTP Link Configuration
First of all, use the LigoWave Link Calculator tool to estimate the possibilities and capacities of the link.
Master Device Configuration
Configure one radio to function as the Master device. Change the IP address of your Master device or leave it as the default:
ligowaveptmasterip
Configure the Master device’s wireless settings:
  • select your country code;
  • indicate the link ID;
  • choose the least occupied frequency (for instructions on how to choose the best operating channel, see Improving Link Stability and Throughput in Noisy Environments under LigoPTP RapidFire Installation Recommendations);
  • select channel width;
  • if necessary, enable encryption;
  • leave all of the other settings as their default values.
ligowaveptpmaster
Slave Device Configuration
Configure the other radio to act as the Slave device. Change the IP address of your Slave device:
ptpstationip
Configure the following in accordance with the Master device:
  • select the country code;
  • indicate the link ID;
  • choose the channel width;
  • if necessary, enable encryption;
  • leave all of the other settings as their default values.
ptpstationconf
Check Signal Levels
Indicate the transmit power for optimal signal levels.
  • Local signal – received signal strength from a remote PTP (Master device in this case).
  • Remote signal – received signal strength from a local PTP (Slave device in this case).
  • Two signal bars mean two streams – 2 transmit/2 receive (MIMO).
signals1
Antenna Alignment
  • If necessary, perform antenna alignment.
  • RSSI is a positive value because it is calculated by subtracting the signal level from the noise level.
  • A higher positive RSSI value is better.
  • RSSI evaluates signal level and environment noise.
  • RSSI should differ on the chain by only a few units.

PTP Link Configuration

PTPjungimas2-1

First of all, use the LigoWave Link Calculator tool to estimate the possibilities and capacities of the link.
Link installation recommendations can be found here.
Master Device Configuration

Configure one PTP Unity device to function as the Master device. Assign a unique Link ID, run the Site Survey tool, and select a frequency that is not crowded. For instructions on how to choose the best operating channel, see Improving Link Stability and Throughput in Noisy Environments under LigoPTP RapidFire Installation Recommendations.

Clear all selected channels in the list and choose just a few that are not used by other devices.
bondingmaster27
In the device’s Configuration tab, set the Network mode to 2nd Link Configuration. This mode allows users to configure the second device via the eth2 port. Change the IP address of the PTP Unity Master device, or leave it as the default value:

bondingMaster

Configure one PTP PRO device to function as the Master device. Assign a unique Link ID (different from the one used for Unity), run the Site Survey tool, and select a frequency that is not crowded.

Clear all selected channels in the list and choose just a few that are not used by other devices.
Choose frequencies that are separated by 300MHz from the Unity link’s frequencies.

bondingPROMASTER2

Change the IP address of the PTP PRO Master device to 192.168.2.68 (as shown in the example):

bondingPROconfig

 Slave Device Configuration
In the device’s Configuration tab, set the Network mode to 2nd Link Configuration. This mode allows users to configure the second device via the eth2 port. Change the IP address of the PTP Unity Slave device to 192.168.2.67:

bondingslave2

Configure the second PTP Unity device to function as the Slave device. Enter the same Link ID as on the Master device.

bondingslave27

Change the IP address of the PTP PRO Slave device to 192.168.2.69 (as shown in the example):

bondingPROslaveip

Configure the second PTP PRO device to function as the Slave device. Enter the same Link ID as on the Master device.

bondingPROslaverad

Aggregation Mode Configuration

First of all, change the Network mode on the Unity Slave device from 2nd Link Configuration to Trunking with Packet aggregation enabled and the Trunking algorithm set to Round-robin.

When the Trunking mode is enabled, PRO devices are not reachable for configuration.

slavebondingtrunking

Then change the Network mode on the Unity Master device from 2nd Link Configuration to Trunking with Packet aggregation enabled and the Trunking algorithm set to Round-robin.

masterbondingtrunking

Run Linktest to check link throughput in aggregation mode.

If Windows machines are mostly used throughout the network, it is recommended to use the Exclusive OR trunking algorithm.

UnityMaster1
In the device’s Configuration tab, set the Network mode to 2nd Link Configuration. This mode allows users to configure the second device via the eth2 port. Change the IP address of the Main PTP Unity Master device, or leave it as the default value:

bondingMaster

Configure the second PTP Unity device to function as the Master device. Assign a unique Link ID (different from the one used for Unity), run the Site Survey tool, and select a frequency that is not crowded.
