Base Station ID
The Base Station ID is the identifier of the AU to which the SU can
connect. An SU can be authenticated by an AU only if the Base Station
ID and Base Station ID Mask match the Base Station ID configured for
the AU. A change in the Base Station ID and Base Station ID Mask will
take effect only after resetting the SU.
The Base Station ID is comprised of 6 groups of up to three digits each,
where the range for each group is 0 to 255. The first 3 groups define the
Operator ID, the next two groups define the Cell ID and the sixth group
defines the Sector (AU) ID.
A change in the Base Station ID is applied only after reset.
The default Base Station ID is 186.190.0.0.0.0
Base Station ID Mask
The Base Station ID Mask, together with the Base station ID define the
AU(s) that can synchronize with the SU.
The Base Station ID Mask comprises 6 groups of up to 3 digits each,
where the range of each group is 0 to 255. The first 3 groups form the
mask for the Operator ID. The next 2 groups form the mask for the Cell
ID, and the last group forms the mask for the Sector ID.
A change in the Base Station ID Mask is applied only after reset.
The default Base Station ID Mask is 255.255.255.0.0.0.
