Setting base station configuration parameters
This section describes configuration parameters to set for proper base station operation.
You can use terminal emulation, Telnet, the web interface, or an SNMP session to configure
the parameters on the base station.Before you can use these methods, make sure the
connection is set up. For further information, refer to the section “Setting up connection
methods used to configure base stations” on page 5-32 in this guide.
To set up the base station:
1 Set the following parameters, in the order that follows:
• set airlink channel, as described on page 5-37 in this guide.
• set airlink downlink power, as described on page 5-38 in this guide.
• set airlink downlink bias, as described on page 5-39 in this guide.
• set vlan legacy id, as described on page 5-43 in this guide.
• set vlan mgmt id, as described on page 5-43 in this guide.
• set airlink state, as described on page 5-42 in this guide.
For more information about these configuration parameters, as well as a full list of
configuration parameters, refer to the guide “Using the NextNet Operating System.”
2 After setting the parameters, use the write command to write the settings into the flash,
non-volatile memory.
3 For changes to take effect, perform one of the following:
• Re-boot the base station
—OR—
• Power down the base station, and then re-power it.
set airlink channel
Set this configuration parameter to the frequency channel on which to run the airlink. For an
illustration of the channels that are supported in the various frequency ranges, refer to
Appendix B.
Example: set airlink channel 15
