IP Operational Mode –
Bridge - Bridge work at OSI model Layer 2. Thi mean it doe not know anything about
protocol , but ju t forward data depending on the de tination addre in the data packet.
Thi addre i not the IP addre , but the MAC (Media Acce Control) addre that i
unique to each network adapter card. With a Bridge, all your computer are in the ame
network ubnet, o you don't have to worry about not being able to communicate between

computer or hare an Internet connection. The only data that i allowed to cro the
bridge i data that i being ent to a valid addre on the other ide of the bridge. Bridge
don't require programming. They learn the addre e of the computer connected to
them by li tening to the data flowing through them. Bridge are very u eful for joining
network made of different media type together into larger network , and keeping
network egment free of data that doe n't belong in a particular egment.
Router - Router i an OSI model Layer 3 device, and forward data depending on the
network addre , not the hardware (MAC) addre . For TCP/IP network thi mean the
IP addre of the network interface. Router i olate each LAN into a eparate ubnet.
Router provide bandwidth control by keeping data out of ubnet where it doe n't belong,
however route need to be et up before they can get going.
WLANx Mode - Wirele LAN Operational mode for the device. Available mode are:
Access Point - Thi mode allow connection of any 802.11a ba ed Client Device .
Polling Base Station – Thi mode utilize OSBRiDGE proprietary polling wirele mac
protocol, that ha been pecifically optimized for high performance outdoor network .
Web Login Timeout – Enter the value the management Web e ion hould be kept alive
without any action from the u er.
Watchdog – If enabled then OSBRiDGE 5G device will end 3 ICMP Echo Reque t to the
configured IP addre , each in 3 minute interval. If there i no ingle ICMP Echo Reply to any of
the e reque t , then the device will reboot it elf. The device ha al o independent hardware
watchdog built in, that check for critical operational parameter and reboot the device, hould
the y tem hang or become un table. That watchdog work all the time, regardle of the ping
watchdog configuration.
ETH Speed – Ethernet connection peed, available value are Auto, 100MBp Half/Full Duplex
and 10Mbp Half/Full Duplex.

traffic coming from WLAN interface i forwarded to pecified MAC addre on the wired interface
only.
Reset to Default Password - Pa word that i u ed to re et device to factory default etting
u ing OSRe et oftware.
NTP Server – Configure IP addre of the external NTP (Network Time Protocol) erver where
OSBRiDGE device will obtain current time from at tartup time.

4. IP Settings
Router Mode
Wired Interface IP – Enter IP addre of the wired interface here.
Wired Interface Mask – Enter wired network ubnet ma k here.
Wireless Interface IP x – Enter IP addre of the wirele interface here.
Wireless Interface Mask x – Enter wirele network ubnet ma k here.
Default Gateway – IP addre of a router where traffic not de tined for defined route / local
route will be forwarded.
Defined Routes – Thi table di play currently defined tatic route . To delete a route elect
"Delete" checkbox and pre Submit on the bottom of the page. Plea e note that it i not
po ible to delete fir t two entrie – direct route to local interface .
Add Route:
Direct – Wired/Wireless - When router ha two or more IP ubnet directly attached to
it different interface , it can route IP packet between tho e ubnet u ing a direct route.
A direct route con i t of an IP Addre which pecifie the ba ic IP addre to route, a
Subnet Ma k which define the cla of IP addre e that will be routed, and an interface
which pecifie where the IP ubnet i attached. When an IP packet addre ed to a
y tem on the directly routed ubnet arrive at the router, the router will end it directly
to the target machine on the interface pecified. When entering direct route u e 0.0.0.0
a Gateway.

Indirect - When router need to end IP packet between IP ubnet which are not
directly connected to one of it interface , it mu t have an indirect route for ending tho e
packet . An indirect route con i t of an IP Addre which pecifie the ba ic IP addre to
route, a Subnet Ma k which define the cla of IP addre e that will be routed and a
Gateway that will relay the IP packet. When an IP packet addre ed to a y tem on the
indirectly routed ubnet arrive at the router, the router will route it over to the pecified
Gatway to be routed further.
