E-EQ-MX3RG-J-ARC MX3 Reference Guide
Chapter 6 RF Network Configuration
Introduction
Note: The information and programs in this section only pertain to LXE’s 2.4GHz system
radios. They do not work with LXE’s 900MHz system radios.
Change the radio parameters by editing the NET.CFG file in the PCTCP directory. This can be
done with any ASCII text editor or NED. The NET.CFG file is the configuration file used by the
radio card’s ODI driver. The NET.CFG file determines the wireless network name, the
workstation name and other information regarding the wireless system.
2.4GHz radio parameters cannot be changed using LXE’s terminal emulation (TE) configuration
utilities.
The Sockets software package provides an interface to all of the TCP/IP parameters. Parameter
configuration is performed by editing the file SOCKET.CFG.
SNMP DOS Agent
The SNMP DOS agent executable resides in the \AGENT directory. For information on
enabling/disabling the SNMP Agent, please refer to the “DOS Autoconfigurator Instructions”. For
details on Agent operation, please refer to the “SNMP Agent Reference Guide”. Both manuals
are available in electronic format on the LXE Manuals CD.
The agent is placed into memory as a TSR and uses approximately <50k of memory. When the
agent is not being polled, it is invisible to the user. When it is being polled, there is a slight delay,
depending on how much data is being retrieved by the agent.
Avalanche
When the unit is configured to use Avalanche for network settings, manual changes made to
NET.CFG and SOCKET.CFG may be overwritten.
