Sometimes, a device from a particular product series may have different a license information compared to other devices of
the same series. Therefore, the start-up process validates the configuration file against the license file of the device before
applying the configuration file. The configuration file is valid, if the following conditions are met:
1. The input bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the input bandwidth limit in the
license file.
2. The output bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the output bandwidth limit in the
license file.
3. The sum of the input and output bandwidth limit in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the
cumulative bandwidth limit in the license file.
4. The frequency band (2.4, 4.9, and 5 G Hz) in the configuration file should match with any one of the supported
frequency bands in the license file.
5. The radio operation mode (BSU/SU/AP) in the configuration file should match with any one of supported radio
operating modes in the license file.
6. The number of satellites in the configuration file should be less than or equal to the number of satellites in the license
file.
7. The product family (TMP/TQB/AP) value in the configuration file should match the product family value in the license
file.
8. Tx/Rx antenna chain mask in the configuration file should match the Tx/Rx antenna chain mask in the license file.

If any one of the above conditions is not met, the configuration file will be removed by the flash control module
during initialization and the device will boot-up with the last known good configuration. Before deleting the
configuration file, an eventlog is generated about the violation of the license parameters. In some cases, if the
last known good configuration does not exist internally, the device can reset the configuration to factory
defaults and boot up.
