Initial Setup the Base Station via Quick Start
NOTE: The Quick Start menu is usually accessed for the first time via a local connection
BEFORE the Base Station is mounted onto the pole.
The Quick Start screen concentrates the IP address and other basic parameters required to set
up the Base Station and to perform basic operations; these include Base Station service control
and reboot.
The Web Manager supports two operation modes, each with a dedicated Quick Start screen:
•
ASN Gateway
– this is the default mode, corresponding to an installation topology that
includes an ASN Gateway. In this type of installation the QoS is configured through the
Gateway. No QoS set up is required at the Base Station.
•
Standalone
– in this mode, the Base Station installation topology does NOT include an ASN
Gateway. It is required to configure the Web Browser to run in this mode.
The operation mode can be verified and modified through the Web Manager (Backbone menu).
This section describes how to verify and modify the Web Manager mode according to the
installation topology, and the Quick Start options for each mode.
