CONFIGURATION
R
DHCP Server Address Range
: The DHCP Server Address Range (default of 192.168.128.101 to 199) are provided
to the connected computers which have been configured for dynamic Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) addressing. If the DHCP Server is set to
Disable
, then devices connected to the BGAN terminal
must be configured to be in the same IP subnet address space as the BGAN terminal Ethernet IP address.
Idle-mode DHCP Lease Time
: Use this to change the default time (60 seconds) that the DHCP lease to the
computer is good for when the BGAN terminal is not connected to the network. This parameter helps solve a
problem with some models of Cisco routers that will not accept a short DHCP lease time. The longer the Idle-mode
DHCP lease time, the longer it will take the Network/BGAN terminal to update the computer with the correct
Domain Name System (DNS) servers for web browsing after establishing a Network Connection.
Connected-mode DHCP Lease Time
: The Connected-mode DHCP Lease Time refers to the DHCP lease time
when the BGAN terminal is connected to the network. Normally, there is no need to change this parameter. Note
that some devices, including some Cisco router models, have a minimum value (i.e., 300 seconds) that will be
accepted.
Bypass Antenna Pointing & Auto Register
: Use
Enable
to bypass antenna pointing and have the BGAN terminal
go straight into Registering with the Network. This is set to On as default for the RF-7800B-VU104. Enabling this
for the RF-7800B-DU024 allows the Land Portable terminal to be mounted in fixed installation, and automatically
connect to the network following a power failure.
24/7 Network Connection Keep Alive
: Set this to
Enable
to keep the Network Connection(s) active. If the BGAN
network terminates a Network Connection due to inactivity, the BGAN Terminal will automatically recreate the
Network Connection. Use this feature when there is time critical IP data, when the IP data must be sent immediately
and cannot wait any delays for a subsequent Network Connection to be made.
Satellite Selection
: Use this parameter within a satellite overlap region to override the default satellite (AUTO
selects a satellite based upon elevation angle/GPS location). The change to a different satellite does not take effect
until the BGAN terminal is reset.
Streaming Activity Timer
: Given that Streaming contexts are billed by the minute, this allows the ability to limit
unnecessary usage charges independently on each Streaming connection. The default timer is set to tear down a
streaming context after two hours of inactivity.
Emergency Call Numbers
: Use this to update the emergency call number that is applicable in that part of the world
where the BGAN terminal is being used.
PIN and PUK (attempts left)
: A 4-8 digit PIN may be used to enable use of the BGAN terminal for non-emergency
functions. If the USIM card has previously been utilized to require a PIN number, each time the terminal is powered
up, a PIN number will be required by the Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card. The PIN number entered
here is stored in the BGAN terminal, and provided to the SIM card upon power up. If the wrong PIN is typed in more
than three times, the SIM card becomes locked. When a PIN is locked, enter a Personal Unblocking Key (PUK)
provided by the service operator as well as the desired PIN and press the Apply button. This will revert the USIM
card to the original unlocked state. If a wrong PUK is entered ten times in a row, the SIM will become permanently
blocked and unrecoverable, requiring a new SIM card. The attempts left is a read only indication of the number of
remaining attempts at entering a PIN number and a PUK number.
Use
Apply
,
Cancel
, and
Restart Terminal
buttons to make changes, cancel changes, or reboot BGAN terminal.
Any changes made to the above fields are not programmed into the BGAN terminal until the
Apply
button is
pressed. The
Cancel
button discards any changes made to the values on the web page and leaves the settings stored
in the BGAN terminal unchanged.
