Configure Other Basic AP Parameters
In addition to setting up the SU in the SUDB, the following settings from the AP’s Configuration page must be set
(or left at default).
Base ID:
Base station ID, consisting of four user definable alphanumeric characters. Input of Base ID will
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 the AP must match the Base ID in the SU in order for a link to
be established. This parameter can only be changed while in Opmode "OFF."
AP ID:
User definable AP ID (00-FF). Default is last two digits of MAC ID. Once authenticated, the AP
will automatically assign its AP ID to the SU. This parameter can only be changed while in
Opmode “OFF.”
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway:
The IP address used on the radio is for management purposes only. Since this is a layer-II device,
these parameters do not play a role in establishing the wireless link.
Default Opmode:
Will initiate Operation Mode of the radio after a power cycle or reboot. When the radio enters
Opmode "ON," it will be transmitting. When the radio enters Opmode "OFF," it will not be
transmitting. The radio can be put into Opmode "OFF" regardless of its default Opmode by
telnetting into the radio within the first 30 seconds after a power cycle or reboot.
Active Channel/Polarization:
Is the current channel and antenna polarization of the unit when in Opmode "ON."
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.
