Field
Zone based paging (Optional)
Zone based paging is used when grouping base stations
into zones in site(s). Not using zones will be substantial in
most average systems.
Note
: Zone based paging is built on the DECT Standard
for Location Area Level (LAL).
Note
: The field
must be set to
Zone
based paging
to be able to use zone based paging.
Possible values:
8 Zones (32 base stations per zone)
,
16 Zones (16 base stations per zone)
or
32 Zones (8
base stations per zone)
.
Default value: 8 Zones (32 base stations per zone).
For more information about zone based paging, see
"Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station Configuration Meth-
ods - Considerations" on page 158
. Please read the
information carefully before continuing and ensure correct
deployment of the base stations.
Caution
: Assigning RPN's are essential for using zone
based paging, as the RPN decides which zone the Spec-
tralink IP-DECT Base Station will be part of. If changing
zone size later on after having configured the base sta-
tions and assigned RPN's, then all configuration must be
redone. Therefore, consider your system needs carefully
before and when deploying.
Note
: Enabling
Zone based paging
ensures automatic
update of handset locations.
For more information about configuration of sites and
zones, see
"Configuring Sites (and Zones)" on page 175
Multicast address (Optional)
Multicast address used for signaling.
Default value: 239.255.1.11
Please refer to RFC 2365 and RFC 4291 for details.
Note
: Only used with multicast signaling as paging
method.
Multicast TTL (Optional)
The TTL is used to limit the propagation of the multicast
packets across routers.
Default value: 1
Note
:The TTL is configurable and it is possible to change
the value according to network topology. For more inform-
ation, see vendor specific documentation.
Note
: Only used with multicast signaling as paging
method.
