4.4.4.1 Automatic Network Connections Settings for TE with Static IP Address
A custom range of static IP addresses can be used for setting up an automatic Network Connection with any of the
QoS's offered by the network. To turn on a particular range of addresses:
a. Select DA and enter the low and high range of IP addresses to use (e.g. 192.168.128.210 to
192.168.128.219).
b. Select the desired QoS for that range of IP addresses (32 k) for streaming. The APN listed is the default
APN read from the USIM card (bgan.inmarsat.com). If the USIM is provisioned for more than one
APN, then type a secondary APN in this field.
c. If a user name and password is required to attain a known static public IP address, enter it in the next
two fields. When requiring more than one BGAN network connection with different BGAN static
public IP addresses (using different APN Username and Passwords), it is recommended to utilize
multiple rows of the Automatic Network Connection configuration with different address ranges. For
example, row 1 can contain a value of Low and High IP address of "192.168.128.101", and row 2 can
contain a value of Low and High IP address of "192.168.128.102".
To setup additional ranges of addresses, follow the same instructions as above. IP address ranges cannot overlap. If
there is an overlap, an error will pop-up for the overlap region. Check all of the ranges for overlaps and try again.
When finished, select Apply. The Operation Successful message should display.
4.4.4.2 Automatic Network Connections Settings for TE using DHCP Assigned IP Address
This option allows the BGAN terminal to be set up for dynamic background Automatic Network Connections. This
means that any device connected to the BGAN terminal, will automatically receive a background Network
Connection. To activate this feature:
a. Select the DA radio button under Automatic Network Connections settings for TEs using DHCP
assigned IP address.
b. Click on Apply.
To see if the context has been setup properly, click on Network Connections page. This page will show all contexts
that have been setup (active or inactive).
