Configure Other Basic AP Parameters


In addition to setting up the SU in the SU Database, the following settings from the AP’s Configuration page must be set
(or left at default).

Base ID:

User definable base station ID (1-127); typically assigned to a group of APs at a particular cell site. The
Base ID in the AP must match the Base ID in the SU in order for the link to be established. This
parameter can only be changed while in Opmode "OFF."

AP ID:

User definable AP ID (1-255). This parameter is for informational purposes only and does not play a
role in the establishment of a link. This parameter can only be changed while in Opmode “OFF.”

IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway: The IP configuration of the radio for configuration and network management

purposes. Since this is a layer-II device, these parameters do not play a role in establishing a wireless
link.

Default Opmode: Operation mode of the radio after a power cycle or reboot. When the radio enters Opmode "AP," it

will be transmitting. When the radio enters Opmode "OFF," the radio is not transmitting, but can be
accessed via the Ethernet port. The radio can be put into Opmode "OFF" regardless of its default
Opmode by telneting into it within the first 30 seconds after a power cycle or reboot.

Active Channel/Polarization: The current channel and antenna polarization of the unit when in Opmode "AP."


To configure the AP’s other basic settings, complete the following steps:
