BGAN 9201 User Manual
Activating a PDP Context:
To activate a PDP context, perform the following instructions:
Do not modify the CID field unless you need to setup a specific ID for one of your devices.
Leaving it blank will allow the software to automatically choose the next CID that is available.
Next, type in the local IP address of the device that you want to setup the connection for. The
APN is read from the USIM card and is usually not changed unless you have more than one APN
provisioned on the USIM card.
Next, select the QoS that is needed by selecting it from the drop down list.
If your Service Provider requires a UN and PW, enter it in the Username and Password boxes, then
click on “Create Context”.
The new connection will show up in the connection table (See screen shot below for example).
Note
: In Relay mode you can only have one context and it must be CID 1.
Background Context activated for 192.168.128.101
Once the context has been setup, whether it is successful or not, the context field will always be
populated until you click on the “Clear” box. This allows you to be able to retry/reactive the
existing context parameters (See CID #1 below).
You can tell if a context is active by looking to see if the Global IP Address and DNS fields are
populated. If they are populated, the context is active.
