SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION
R
3.6.7 FIPS Mode
The radio can be placed into a high security FIPS Mode when certain security configuration criteria are met. The
“FIPS Status” text in the dashboard of the GUI links to a summary that indicates the current status of configuration
parameters against the corresponding requirements. Once all criteria are met, FIPS Mode can be activated. A reboot
is prompted by the radio and is required before FIPS Mode is fully active. FIPS Mode may be purchased separately.
Refer to
Paragraph 5.6 .
3.7 TIME AND LOCATION
The radio has some time and location options available that can help with system troubleshooting and maintenance.
See
Figure 3-4 .
3.7.1 SNTP
The subsections below describe Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) configuration parameters. All parameters
for SNTP can be accessed using GUI, CLI, and SNMP interfaces.
3.7.1.1 Server IP Address
This is the IP address of a valid SNTP server that the radio can use to determine the current time.
3.7.1.2 Polling Interval
This interval defines the period of time between polls to the SNTP server for time. Periodic polling is required to
synchronize time with other network devices. The radio can be directed to poll the SNTP server on demand using
SNMP.
3.7.1.3 Time Zone (GMT)
This defines how much offset is applied to time that is received by the SNTP service. This should be set to the time
zone where the radio is located in order to provide an accurate time.
3.7.2 GPS
The subsections below describe Global Positioning System (GPS) configuration parameters. All parameters for GPS
can be accessed using GUI, CLI, and SNMP interfaces.
3.7.2.1 Antenna Power
The radio can power active GPS antennas with an internal 3.3 VDC power supply. The power supply has automatic
short-circuit protection that will protect the radio in the event of an incompatible or broken antenna.
3.7.2.2 Coordinates Format
A number of latitude and longitude datum formats can be selected, depending on a user's preference.
3.7.2.3 GPS Position
If a GPS antenna is properly attached and configured and has good line-of-sight to enough GPS satellites, the
position of the radio is made available.
