4.10.7.3.8.1 Enable/Disable Limit on Number of Supported Devices
If the Enable/Disable Limit on Number of Supported Devices parameter is set to
Disable, the maximum number of supported devices is 512.
The default is Disable.
4.10.7.3.8.2 Maximum Number of Supported Devices
This parameter is applicable only when the Enable/Disable Limit on Number of
Supported Devices parameter is set to Enable.
The available range is from 1 to 512 devices.
The default is 512.
4.10.7.3.8.3 Bridge Aging Time
The Bridge Aging Time sets the aging time for all addresses in the SU's Forwarding
Data Base.
The available values are from 1 to 1440 minutes.
The default is 3 minutes.
4.10.7.3.9 License
The License menu is applicable only to L (Limited capabilities) model SU. It
enables loading a new license to the SU (if a required license is available in the
CPE Licenses Bank). In the current release where only a BW license is available,
after such a license is loaded to an SU its’ Type will be updated and it will no long
be identified as an L model unit: CPE PRO-L will be changed to CPE PRO, CPE
PRO2-L will be changed to CPE PRO2.
4.10.7.3.10 Best BST/AU (Advanced Si)
An SU that can communicate with more than one AU may become associated with
the first AU it "finds", not necessarily the best choice in terms of quality of
communication. Changes in Base Station deployment and subscriber density can
accumulate to create substantial changes in SU performance. The quest for load
sharing together with the desire to create best throughput conditions for the SU
created the need for the Best BST/AU feature, to enable an SU to connect to the
best AU in its neighborhood.
When the Best BST/AU feature is enabled, the SU scans all AUs in a predefined
range, in all frequencies (according to the frequencies defined in the Frequency
Scanning menu as described in Section 4.10.7.3.11.2) and in all available
antennas (according to the local definition in the SU, as indicated by the Antenna
Selection parameter in the Show menu of the SU). Each of the AUs with which the
SU can communicate (perform initial phase of network entry) is given a quality
mark based on the quality of the signal at which it is received by the SU, for each
