The Bluesocket Sales team maps customers to their country of operation, and each
customer is issued an authorization code, which can be found in the Salesforce.com
account.
When the BSC is started for the first time, the country on the Wireless Global page is set
to "No Country Set". While the BSC is in this state, all Radios will be disabled on all
Bluesocket Access Points. The administrator must set the country to the proper country and
then enter the corresponding authorization code. The Bluesocket Sales team has mapped
customers to their country of operation. Each customer has been issued a country
authorization code, which is found in the Salesforce.com account. Go to http://
support.bluesocket.com/my-profile.htm and find the 8 digit code listed under "Country
Authentication Code."
If the authorization code does not match the proper country, then an error is given. If the
code is valid for the country, then the BSC is permanently set to that country code and
cannot be changed (even with a configuration restore, database re-initialization, or an
upgrade). The GUI will only show the chosen country and you will not be allowed to
change the country.
The Country Code is then applied to all BSAPs connected to the BSC. Allowed channels
and power levels are determined by the country and the platform. For example, the
BSAP-1700 does not support channels 36-48, regardless of country code.
If you are using Failover, you should set the country code on each BSC independently.
Alternatively you can wait for the first failover event, which will also set the country code.
If you are using Wireless Replication, you can do one of three things:
•
Disable Wireless Replication and set the country on each BSC independently.
•
Enable the replication mesh, and then set the country on the master. This will
permanently push the country and authorization code to all BSCs in the mesh.
•
Set the country on one BSC, and then take a replication snapshot. This will
permanently write the country to the BSC taking the snapshot.
In no case is Failover or Wireless Replication supported with BSCs provisioned in
different countries.
If you are not using Bluesocket Access Points, it is not required to set the Country. To hide
the red warnings in the GUI, uncheck the Enable AP Service checkbox on the Wireless
Service page.
If you experience issues with setting the country, contact Customer Support or your Sales
Representative.
Diagnostics
Mark the Allow remote diagnostics checkbox to allow Bluesocket service personnel to
reach the BSAP via SSH to perform remote diagnostics.
Wi-Jack Duo
There are three Wi-Jack Duo settings:
Options
Speed and duplex type - By default, the Wi-Jack Duo's physical interface automatically
negotiates bit rate and duplex type for connection. However, if required, you can specify
the Speed and duplex type: Auto indicates auto-negotiate, otherwise you can set the
speed and duplex.
Enable LED - Mark the Enable LED checkbox to Enable the Wi-Jack LED once it is
connected to BSC. During normal operation, the WiJack blue status LED blinks briefly
once every 30 seconds. To disable the LED, uncheck the box. The default is disabled.
