3.7 Radio Interface Configuration
Radio interface configuration is performed using "rfconfig" command. In its most
basic form one need to configure the following parameters of the radio interface:
 Frequency (freq parameter) in MHz. For example, 5260.
 Bitrate (bitr parameter). Bit transfer rate in kBits/sec.
 System identifier (SID parameter). A hexadecimal number in the range of 1H to
FFFFFFH. All devices that are supposed to see each other on the same radio
link must have the same identifier.
To learn your device's radio module capabilities type the command:
<IF-NAME> - radio interface name. Can be read on the device's labeling located on
the case.
Radio interface configuration is performed using "rfconfig" command.
Example:
Additional important parameters and settings for the radio interface:
 rf5.0 - radio interface name in this case. In order to obtain radiointerface
name either see the ODU/Device labeling or execute "ifc -a" command.
 txpwr - transmitting power selection. Available power levels can be obtained
using "capabilities" parameter as shown above.
Example:
NOTE
Radio interface state is not saved in the configuration. That means that if you put radio interface to
the
down state after rebooting it will be in the up state.
