Sector ID's in the EVDO Engineering Screen

[MacinJosh]

For those that have phones that have Sector ID's in the form of 32-character sizes, have you seen any letter ever shown above f? Because strangely enough, the Sector ID sure looks like an IPv6 address in terms of size and hexadecimal characters.

Its hex. It's the evdo subnet.

So then technically it is an IP address.

It's showing the cell identity value in hex 0-f. So far only the htc and iPhone show the cell identity value(iPhone shows it as a decimal value). Samsung phones show the physical cell ID which is a 9 bit value between 0 and 506. The iPhone actually shows both values.

We've been discussing it in the Austin dfw members thread

Disregard I thought you said lte

Not all 32-bit numbers are IP addresses...or ESNs, for that matter...

No, nothing to do with IP's really, but it is 128bits long like a IPv6 address.

My brain is starting to ache from all this networking talk. I'm taking my Network + class in preparation for my Network Pro Certification and my Network + Certification. I'm cramming a whole class into a week cause it's due on Friday.

 

So that might explain my confusion.

 

Thanks for the clarification digiblur.
