Base Station Synchronisation - Gigaset N670 IP PRO Installation, Configuration And Operation

Base stations
Act as Sync Master redundancy
Only relevant in multi-cell systems.
If the DECT sync master or the LAN sync master fails, the base station can take over its role.
Click on Yes/No to define the base station to act/not to act as redundancy sync master.
If you select Yes, the Sync Level is automatically set to 2
become level 1.
Activating/deactivating the base station
A base station must be active to manage the calls of the connected handsets. If it is deactivated,
it will no longer connect handsets but it still stays in the list of connected base stations.
Select Yes/No to activate/deactivate the base station.
Please ensure that the base station you want to deactivate is not on sync level 1.
Check your sync settings before deactivating a base station. Otherwise your system
may no longer work properly.
Adding a base station to the Connected Base Stations list
Click on Confirm
Delete the base station
Click on Delete base station
in the list of pending base stations again.
Reboot the base station
Click on Reboot base station
connections managed by the base station are terminated.

Base station synchronisation

Synchronisation and the logical structuring of the base stations in clusters are prerequisites for
the functioning of the multicell system, inter-cell handover, and (over)load balancing. Overload
balancing means that a handset can roam to a free base, when current base is fully loaded and
cannot accept further handset connections.
Base stations can be synchronised "over the air", meaning that they are synchronised via DECT.
If the DECT connection between specific base stations seems to be not reliable enough, synchro-
nisation can also take place via LAN. To carry out the synchronisation you will need the plan of
the clusters with the synchronisation level for each base station.
For detailed information on synchronisation planning, please refer to the "N870 IP PRO - Instal-
lation, configuration and operation" guide.
For detailed information on DECT network planning, please refer to the "N870 IP PRO - Site Plan-
ning and Measurement Guide".
