3.5.2.4 ASN-GW Load Balancing Pools
The Load Balancing feature provides a WiMAX operator with the capability to build a resilient ASN infrastructure using
ASN-GW redundancy. Every BS is provisioned with two lists of redundant ASN-GWs (pools). The BS applies a
round-robin mechanism in order to pick an Authenticator for each MS that performs an initial network entry (for more
details, refer to
ASN-GWs. Geographical site backup can be achieved by using different priorities of ASN-GW pools (Authenticator
"metric").
At the unit (BTS) level, up to two pools (with different priorities), each with up to 10 ASN-GWs, can be defined. Each BS
inherits these pools.
The ASN-GW Load Balancing Pools submenu includes two options: Primary Pool and Secondary Pool. Select the Primary
or Secondary Pool option to view or update the pool's content. The options available for each pool are:

Show: Select this option to view the current content of the pool.

Add: Select this option to add an ASN-GW address to the pool (up to a maximum of 10 addresses per pool). You will be
prompted to define the Index for the entry (a unique number in the range from 1 to 10) before defining the IP address.
An IP address must be unique for both pools. Broadcast and Multicast addresses are not legal. By default, both pools are
empty.

Select: Use this option to select an existing entry in the pool by its Index. You can then view the entry's IP address,
update the IP address or delete the entry.
Note that you should not populate the Secondary Pool if the Primary Pool is empty. Also, you should not delete all entries
from the Primary Pool if the Secondary Pool is not empty.
A change in the content of the pools takes effect after the next reset.
3.5.2.5 QoS Marking Rules
The QoS Marking Rules option enables you to view or update the values of 802.1P Priority and/or DSCP marking for
outgoing external management traffic.
The QoS Marking Rules parameters are:

802.1P Priority

DSCP
3.5.2.5.1 802.1P Priority
The 802.1P (VLAN) Priority of management traffic.
The range is 0-7.
The default is 0.
