4.4.5 Licenses
The License feature enables managing the license(s) granted to CPEs with limited
capabilities (“L model” CPEs) as well as the general Base Station licenses. In an “L
model” CPE, the overall throughput (the aggregate downlink and uplink MIR in all
services allocated to subscribers behind the CPE) is limited to 2 Mbps. The
Network Service Provider may purchase from Alvarion a bank of CPE unlimited
bandwidth licenses, and allocate licenses to selected L model CPEs on a need
basis (refer to Section 4.9.7.3.9 for details on assigning a license to a selected
CPE). Rather than granting licenses only to specific L model CPEs, the Network
Service Provider may also purchase a Base Station unlimited bandwidth license to
override the bandwidth limitations of all L model CPEs served by the Base Station.
The various licenses (CPEs Unlimited Bandwidth Licenses Bank, Base Station
Unlimited Bandwidth License for all CPEs) are supplied as files to be loaded to the
Base Station using TFTP. A license file can be loaded only to the Base Station
specified in the applicable order.
The Licenses menu enables viewing the current status of CPEs and Base Station
Licenses. The available options are:
Show CPEs License Bank Status
