3.3.4.1 DECT configuration
The DECT functionality for each RFP can be switched on/off. If DECT is
active the RFP can be added to a cluster.
3.3.4.2 States of a RFP
For each RFP the state of the DECT subsystem is displayed. The states are:
Synchronous
The RFP is up and running. The RFP recognizes and is recognized by other
RFPs in its cluster through its air interface and delivers a synchronous clock
signal to the PPs.
Asynchronous but active
The RFP has not been able to synchronize to its neighbours yet. No DECT
communication is possible. But nevertheless the RFP has already been able
to connect to the OMM. This phase should usually last only for a few seconds
after starting up the RFP or the OMM. If this state lasts longer this is an
indication for a hardware or network failure.
Searching
The RFP has lost synchronization to its neighbours. No DECT
communication is possible. This phase should usually last only for a few
seconds after starting up the RFP or the OMM. If this state lasts longer or is
re-entered after being in a synchronous state this is an indication for a bad
location of the RFP.
Inactive
The RFP has connected to the OMM but the air interface has not been
switched on yet. For any RFP with activated DECT functionality this phase
should last only for a few seconds after starting up the RFP. If this state lasts
longer this may indicate an hardware failure.
Not connected
The RFP was configured but has not connected to the OMM yet. Therefore
the IP address column is empty.
3.3.4.3 OMM / RFP SW version check
When the RFPs are connecting the OMM they submit their SW version. If this
version differs from the OMM SW version the RFP connection attempt is
rejected. This could happen when using several DHCP servers with different
OpenMobility SW versions. In this case the RFP is marked with an error
message. Moreover a global error message is displayed on the RFP list web
page if at least one version mismatch has been found.
