[[BR]] For initial setup, site also requires: [[BR]] Long fiber cable; fiber interface to Ethernet switch [[BR]] Long power cable (30m in kit); power supply. [[BR]] Windows server for manager software. [[BR]] Reference mobile stations: WiMAX dongles, and netbooks with WiMAX modems [[BR]] Later, will require: [[BR]] Server for ASN GW software (data path) [[BR]] Ethernet switch [[BR]] Server with VMs for OMF, OML, Login service, etc. (control path) [[BR]] 3) Deployment plans at Wayne State? Waiting for decision by Clearwire; expected 1-2 weeks [[BR]] 4) Orders by: Temple; Drexel; BBN Shan Lin at Temple waiting for email reply with final quote from Gregg Tome; will inform Tome [[BR]] Jeff and Ken from Drexel have reference quote; still planning installation, with cable lengths; should order base station now, the order cables, power supply, etc., later. [[BR]] 5) Reminder: need detailed deployment plans by GEC13! 6) Update on WiMAX modem orders, including WiMAX USB cards: [http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/ClusterECall011612/121911b_WiMAXModems.txt attached file] [[BR]] Derek Meyer: Teltonika order refused, now dropped. [[BR]] 7) New WiMAX RF Agg Mgr received from WINLAB, which maps MS groups to VLAN tags: (Ivan, Nilanjan) Under test at BBN; need final package (Manu, Nilanjan) [[BR]] 8) Progress towards self-contained WiMAX site configuration at BBN with OMF/OML and Login services (Manu) Installing software using puppet configuration tool on server with VMs [[BR]] Also server for ASN GW, and Cisco Ethernet switch [[BR]] 9) Plans for demos at GEC13 (3/13 - 3/15 at UCLA) Will WINLAB do another Mobility First demo? (Ivan, Kiran) [[BR]] 9b) WiMAX experiments Kerim Fouli has joined MIT experiment project; may need assistance. (Kerim, Manu) [[BR]] 10) Suggest other topics?
