You can onboard a 60 GHz device (V1000, V2000, V3000, or V5000) to cnMaestro with the End-to-End (E2E) Controller enabled. E2E Controller handles important management functions such as link bring-up, software upgrades. and configuration
A cnWave network is managed by a central controller called E2E Controller. Each cnWave node (V1000, V2000, V3000, or V5000) rubs minion (client) that connects to the E2E Controller. The controller can run on any host with a route to the cnWave network, including a cnWave node itself.
60 GHz cnWave devices support the following E2E Controllers types:
External E2E Controller: When the controller runs external to mesh, typically in a docker, it is referred as External E2E Controller. This controller type supports up to 500 nodes in a mesh.
Onboard E2E Controller: When the controller runs on a cnWave node that is marked as PoP in the mesh, it is referred as Onboard E2E Controller. Currently, the Onboard E2E Controller is restricted to 31 nodes.
Based on the E2E Controller type hosted on the 60 GHz device, the onboarding process varies. Without the E2E Controller enabled, the onboarding of 60 GHz devices is not supported in cnMaestro.

|
Note Before onboarding a 60 GHz cnWave device (V1000, V2000, V3000, or V5000), ensure to complete the following prerequisite tasks:
|
This topic covers the following sections:
To onboard a 60 GHz device with the external E2E Controller, complete the following steps:
Ensure that the 60 GHz cnWave E2E Controller package (OVA file) is installed on a Linux machine or Oracle Virtualbox (which is used for device management).
Set the IP address of the external E2E Controller.
At the console, SSH into the external E2E Controller using its IP address.
The cnWave E2E Controller Terminal UI (TUI) opens.
Navigate to the cnMaestro option.
The Configure cnMaestro Management Server window opens.
Set appropriate values for the following parameters:
URL: Enter the cnMaestro URL that is used for device management.
Cambium ID: Enter the valid ID that is required for onboarding the 60 GHz cnWave device (with E2E Controller) to cnMaestro.
A Cambium ID is a string that uniquely identifies an account (which you create). It consists of letters, numbers, and underscores. Example: 60GHz_xxx_xxxxxxxxxx. It is used to onboard devices and is assigned to the devices managed by cnMaestro.
Onboarding Key: Enter an appropriate onboarding key (if configured) that is mapped to an individual user account. You can set the onboarding keys for the required user accounts using the Onboard > Settings page in the cnMaestro UI. For more details, check Onboarding Key configuration.
Click Update.
From the home page of cnMaestro UI, navigate to the Monitor and Manage > Network and select a 60 GHz cnWave network. Example: 60 GHz cnWave E2E
Click Approve.
The 60 GHz cnWave–Network Onboard window appears. By default, Auto-assign is selected. You can select Auto-assign or Manual.
When you select Manual, you can update IPv6 address for the E2E Network. You must wait until the IPv6 address gets updated. If Auto Generate IPv6 Addresses is enabled, the E2E Controller fetches the IPv6 addresses automatically.
Set the required parameters and select the Enable Layer 2 Bridge checkbox, if required.
Click Apply and Wait until the network onboard is successful.
|
|
Note The Onboard page in cnMaestro UI supports a separate tab for 60 GHz cnWave. Using this 60 GHz cnWave tab, you can check the onboarding queue for E2E Controllers and cnWave devices. Users must approve the60 GHz E2E Controller before it is added to cnMaestro as an E2E Network. The users can approve either through the Onboarding Queue or the Hierarchical Tree (where the E2E Network is placed on the Monitor and Manage page). When the onboarding is approved, the 60 GHz cnWave E2E Network (and its devices) can be managed by cnMaestro. |
When the onboard is successfully complete, the cnMaestro UI displays the External E2E Network dashboard as shown in the figure below. The
icon indicates the External E2E Controller network.
To onboard a 60 GHz device with the internal Onboard E2E Controller (which is running on the 60 GHz cnWave device), complete the following steps:
Ensure that the external E2E Controller is enabled using the device UI. For details, refer to the 60 GHz cnWave User Guide.
Ensure that the Onboard E2E Controller is enabled using the device UI. You can set the remote management settings, including Cambium URL, Cambium ID, and onboarding key. For details, refer to the 60 GHz cnWave User Guide.
From the home page of cnMaestro UI, navigate to the Monitor and Manage > Network page and select a 60 GHz cnWave network.
Click Approve.
The 60 GHz cnWave - Network Onboard window appears.
Edit the network name and click Save.
You must wait until the network onboard successful message is displayed.
When the onboard is successfully complete, the cnMaestro UI displays the Onboard E2E Network dashboard as shown in the figure below.
If a PoP node is running the Onboard E2E Controller, then the
icon indicates the PoP as shown in the figure below.
To onboard the internal running 60 GHz Onboard E2E Controller using its serial number, complete the following steps:
From the home page of cnMaestro UI, select Onboard and click the 60 GHz cnWave tab.
Click on the Claim Onboard E2E button.
The Claim Onboard E2E Network with Serial Number windows appears
Enter the serial number of the 60 GHz cnWave devices and click Claim Devices.
