[WISPA] Dragonwave Horizon E7000
Anyone using these? They operate in the 71-76 GHz licensed frequency band and can do 900M/100M, 750M/250M, or 500M/500M. Price point is nice -- more $ than a typical 100M link, but less $ than a gigabit link.

Re: [WISPA] Dragonwave Horizon Compact - one way traffic only?
The radios are plugged into Cisco Catalyst 3750, 3550, or 2950 switches. We're using the copper ports. Haven't tested with SFP. I know of another operator with this same issue. I believe he was using Juniper switches. Trango never solved the problem for him either. His workaround was to connect the radios into Juniper routers, and transport his L2 via MPLS. AFAIK he hasn't had any issues with this. -- Blake Covarrubias On Jul 31, 2012, at 12:28 PM, Brad Belton wrote: > Interesting. We have a few Apex & ApexPlus radios deployed and haven't seen > this.

Interesting. We have a few Apex & ApexPlus radios deployed and haven't seen this. We have preferred to use the GigaPlus in most cases. What are the Apex radios plugged into? (e.g. Cisco, MikroTik Routerboards, switches etc, etc.) Does the cable distance make a difference? Are you seeing this with the SFP port too?

Re: [WISPA] Dragonwave Horizon Compact - one way traffic only?
I've only seen this behavior twice from a Trango radio...it pains me to admit the first time was user error. This happened during a new installation. I was in a hurry.it turned out that one side had "opmode" enabled and the other was not yet turned on! That'll pretty much guarantee one way traffic. The second time was a faulty GigaLINK 11GHz ODU (Serial # 0007). After years of reliable service, this path would at random times begin to lose link lock status on one side. Trango Support was extremely responsive (as always) and ultimately identified which of the four components (IDU or ODU) needed to be replaced. This was not an easy task given the random nature of the problem, but extremely helpful given the location of this link. Trango saved us countless man hours by positively identifying which IDU or ODU was faulty prior to us making the trip out to the site. If you are experiencing traffic lockups & Ethernet instability on several of Trango's models I would suggest looking into what common denominators are in play on these links. We have not had the trouble you are seeing with Trango radios.

[WISPA] Dragonwave Horizon Compact - one way traffic only?
I have a backbone with 5 licensed links. Each link is switched to the next, forming a continuous L2 network. Yesterday evening, we had a partial breakdown on the very last link. I could see traffic /from/ the far end, but the far end was unable to see traffic from this side. I could see discovery packets, I could see OSPF multicast traffic. I could even see some stuff from a few devices that are bridged or switched in on the other side of the link. The last device that was responsive to me, was the Horizon Compact on the near side of that last link. Nothing notable in the logs, so I reboot and a few minutes later, everything is back to normal. I can't find much of anything in terms of peer-to-peer support for Dragonwave equipment, so I figured I'd ask here. does anyone have any experience they wouldn't mind sharing about Dragonwaves?
