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: Four character, alphanumeric, user definable base station ID. Input of BASEID shall be in the format of xxxx. Where
x is any character from the set : { 0..9; a..z; A..Z; '!@#$%^&*()_+[]\<>,./?' } . The Base ID is typically assigned to a
single AP or a group of APs at a particular cell site. The Base ID in AP must match the Base ID in SU in order for
link to be established. This parameter can only be changed while opmode is "OFF".
AP ID: User definable AP ID (00-FF). This parameter is for informational purposes only and does not play a role in
authentication or the establishment of a working wireless link. This parameter can only be changed while opmode
is “OFF”.
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway:
The IP configuration of this radio for configuration, and network management purposes. Since this is a layer-II
device, these parameters do not play a role in the establishment of the wireless link.
Default Opmode:
Operation mode of the radio after power cycle or reboot. When the radio enters "AP" mode, it will be transmitting.
When the radio enters "OFF" mode the radio is not transmitting, but can be accessible via the Ethernet port. The
radio can be put into opmode "OFF" regardless of its default opmode by telnetting into the radio within the first 30
seconds after power cycle or reboot.
Active Channel/Polarization:
The current channel and antenna polarization of this unit when Opmode is "AP".
To configure the AP’s other basic settings, complete the following steps:
1. Connect to the AP (see Getting Started) and open the Configuration page.
