OTA Fixed IP

(Radio Management Client - Radio View)

HGDefinitionMob%26Port.jpg

Radio Management (RM) allows you to view or define the radio's OTA (Over The Air) Fixed IP Address (FIP)for all codeplug (record / rows) within this Radio View. When a radio's IP Address is known it can be used for direct Device Programmer - POP25 / OTAP to radio communications, eliminating the need for ARS, which is also known as FIP Mode.

Configure FIP Mode Programming:

  1. When a Read or Write job is created for a radio (see Schedule a Job), the Connection Method selection must be set to "POP25" or "ANY".

  2. The Device Programmer (DP) / Device Monitor allows for a FIP (Fixed IP Address) Mode...

When this OTA Fixed IP Address is  defined for a radio's codeplug,

AND

When the DP's Communication Method is set to "Over the Air",

AND

when the DP's ARS Alias is set to "None"

(In this scenario, once the presence of a radio with a defined OTA Fixed IP Address is DP detected, only FIP Mode jobs are sent from the RM Server to be executed.)
