5.15.3 Configuring Static IP Address and RouteThis describes how to configure the static IP address and route for a BTS that works in IP overE1 mode.

PrerequisiteYou have logged in to the BTS through the site maintenance terminal (SMT).

Context

CAUTIONl Before configuring the route, set Static IP Switch to ENABLE, and set the IP address of

the BTS.l If static IP address is applied, a BTS cannot obtain routes automatically. That is, all routes

must be configured at the near end. At least one route must be configured, with DST IP setto the IP address of the BSC and Gateway set to the IP address of the peer device.

l Currently, PPP links and MLPPP links do not support next hop routing. Therefore, only theoutput port IP address can be configured and the next hop IP address cannot be configuredfor a PPP link or MLPPP link.

l A newly-configured route will overwrite the original one.

This section takes the following IP addresses as an example:

Item Value

IP address and mask of the BSC 10.10.1.1/24

IP address and mask of the BTS 10.10.2.2/24
