SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION AND CONFIGURATION
3.8.10.1 Multi-Hop Failover
A subscriber can be designated to support Multi-Hop Failover, which allows it to act as a temporary Failover SC if
the actual SC becomes inaccessible. Once the actual SC becomes accessible again, the Failover SC reverts back to
its role as an SS.
Only one subscriber in a Multi-Hop sector should be
configured to support Multi-Hop Failover.
3.8.11 Registration Period
The Registration Period defines how frequently an SC will check for new subscribers and also how frequently the
SC will transmit multicast data (for SPMP). A short Registration Period will decrease the potential unicast
throughput and increase the potential multicast throughput. A long Registration Period will increase the potential
unicast throughput and decrease the potential multicast throughput.
3.8.12 Scheduling Cycle
The Scheduling Cycle defines how frequently the different Links will be allowed to transmit. A short Scheduling
Cycle can reduce latency at the expense of throughput, while a long Scheduling Cycle can improve throughput at
the expense of latency.
3.8.13 Statistics
The radio provides the number of transmitted and received data packets, along with how many packets were
retransmitted or discarded due to errors.
