Backbone Configuration
The Base Station backbone parameters provide infrastructure settings of the system mode and
other parameters. After configuring the system operation mode (Standalone or ASN-GW), the
corresponding backbone parameters can be configured.
The following backbone configurations are described in this chapter:
•
General parameters (system operation mode, Base Station and GW addresses)
•
Standalone mode: Switching parameters and learned MAC addresses
•
ASN-GW mode: Definition of ASN-GW to Base Station connection parameters (IP, tunneling,
keep-alive)
