3.7 Configure Basic Parameters
Reference:
eNodeB Configuration Guide
The Nova430e eNB can be configured in Single Carrier (SC), Carrier Aggregation (CA), or Dual
Carrier (DC)/split mode, depending on which licenses you have purchased, and/or in HaloB mode,
which is embedded in the base software. The Nova430e also supports CBRS SAS operation.
When first installing and testing the Nova430e, Baicells recommends configuring the primary cell
(Pcell)/Cell 1 carrier settings (without enabling CA, DC, HaloB, or SAS) for simple verification that
the new eNB unit is operational. Once it is confirmed to be operational, you can then refer to the
appropriate configuration guide(s) for the operating mode you plan to use.
NOTE: For all GUI menus and fields, refer to the following documents on the Baicells

3.7.1 Launch the eNB GUI
Follow the steps below to connect to the Nova430e GUI.
Step 1:
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the eNB WAN/PoE+ port to the local network
routed to the Internet. The DATA interface is set to DHCP client by default.
Optionally, you can plug a PC directly into the eNB MGMT port. On your PC you will
need to assign a static IP address within the MGMT subnet. The default IP address
for the MGMT interface is http://192.168.150.1/24.
Step 2:
Open a Web browser, and enter the following IP address: http://192.168.150.1.
Step 3:
At the login screen (Figure 3-15), enter the default user name (admin) and
password (admin) and click on Login to open the home page.
