You can enter the following details:
• System Name: This is the system name for easy identification of the BSU or SU. The System Name field is limited to
a length of 32 bytes. Use the system name of a BSU to configure the Base Station System Name parameter on an SU
if you want the SU to register only with this BSU. If the Base Station System Name is left blank on the SU, it can
register with any Base Station that has a matching Network Name and Network Secret.
• Country: The Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) is enabled automatically when you choose a country with a
regulatory domain that requires it. The Country selection pre-selects and displays only the allowed frequencies for the
selected country.
Click Configure > Interfaces > Wireless to see the channel/frequency list for the selected Country.
NOTE: Units sold in the United States are pre-configured to scan and display only the outdoor frequencies permitted
by the FCC. No other Country selections, channels, or frequencies can be configured. Units sold outside of
the United States and Canada support the selection of a Country by the professional installer. If you change
the Country, a reboot of the unit is necessary for the upgrade to take place.
Dynamic Frequency Selection is not supported in 2.4 GHz operational mode; it is supported on Model 5054-R units
only.
Support for the 5.25 – 5.35 GHz and 5.725 – 5.825 GHz frequency bands is provided with a single country selection,
UNITED STATES (US), which does not provide DFS capability in these frequency bands.
For a non US-only device, the default country selected is United Kingdom (GB).
Note the following:
– The channel center frequencies are not regulated; only the band edge frequencies are regulated.
– If, before upgrade, US was selected as a country for a non US-Only device (which is an incorrect configuration),
the country is changed automatically to United Kingdom upon upgrade.
See Country Codes and Channels for a list of country codes.
• Location: This field can be used to describe the location of the unit, for example “Main Lobby.”
• Contact Name, Contact Email, and Contact Phone: In these fields, you can enter the details of the person to
contact.
• Mode of Operation: This field sets the unit as bridge (layer 2) or as router (layer 3). See Bridge and Routing Modes
for more information.
