    99This tutorial series assumes you have an [http://www.orbit-lab.org/userManagement/register ORBIT account], have [https://www.orbit-lab.org/schedule/ scheduled a session] on the ORBIT test bed, are familiar with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Shell SSH]'ing [http://www.orbit-lab.org/wiki/Tutorial/HelloWorld#a4.RunningtheHelloWorldexperiment into the test bed itself, and are familiar with the basics of running ORBIT experiments]. If you have not done these things yet, you may wish to do so before taking a look at this slightly more advanced experiment. If you are unfamiliar with or are entirely new to ORBIT, you may wish to start [http://www.orbit-lab.org/ here].

    2012
    2113First, SSH into the test bed you plan on using for the experiment. For this experiment, we use ORBIT's Sandbox 4.
     
    4133"wget" is the command to send an http request; "-qO-" gives options for outputting the result of the request to the screen; "cons-wm-01" is the name of the base station; "5052" is the port number; "//wimaxrf/bs/default" is the command to load the default base station settings.

     35=== Restoring the Base Station to Defaults ===
    4436
    4537To restore the base station to defaults, run the following commands:

     59=== Loading a Default Image ===

    6961Much like it is recommended to reset the base station to default settings, it is also recommended to load up a "clean" disk image. This helps avoid conflicts with previous user settings. It can also save time manually setting up frequently-used properties.

    199191For the sake of brevity, we will not repeat the previous process at length for the other nodes. However, we will give sample instructions for node 6, and elaborate on some general rules.

     225=== Testing Connection ===
    234226
    235227Repeat the previous steps for other nodes. To test the connection between two nodes, use the ''ping'' utility, which sends packets at an IP address and checks for confirmation of receipt. Assuming that nodes 4 and 6 have already been connected:

    253245 * '''If you cannot run ''wimaxcu ron'' after loading the modules correctly:''' In order to use the WiMAX Configuration Utility, the WiMAX daemon needs to be running. Usually, the daemon initializes when the modules are loaded. However, occasionally they do not load. Always check that they are loaded by issuing ''"wimaxd"''.
