Field Description
Satellite (WAN) IP
Address and Mask The CiM modem has two network interfaces: the Ethernet interface
and the Satellite interface. Each of these network interfaces must
be assigned an IP Address. The only requirements on the Satellite
IP Address are: 1) that is must not be on the same subnet as the
Ethernet Interface; 2) it must be on the same subnet as the Satellite
IP address assigned to the CiM modem on the other end of the
satellite link.
Since the only devices communicating on the WAN link are CiM
modems, the Sateliite IP Address can usually be an arbitary
address assigned to many different systems. However, because of
the possibility of conflict with an assigned Ethernet IP or the IP
Address of a defined route, the user can select this value.
HDLC Transmitter State The Transmitter state reflects the current state of the CiM as a
routing device. This parameter has one of two values:
Enabled
Disabled
When the transmitter state is enabled, the CiM will allow routing of
packets from its Ethernet (LAN) interface to its Satellite (WAN)
interface. When the transmitter state is disabled, the CiM will not
allow routing of any packets over its Satellite (WAN) interface.
HDLC Receiver State The Receiver state reflects the current state of the CiM as a routing
device. This parameter has one of two values:
Enabled
Disabled
When the Receiver state is enabled, the CiM will allow routing of
packets from its Satellite (WAN) interface to its Ethernet (LAN)
interface. When the Receiver state is disabled, the CiM will not
allow routing of any packets received on its Satellite (WAN)
interface.
Satellite (WAN) Receiver
HDLC Addresses The CiM allows the user to define up to four (4) different HDLC
Addresses that can cary user information on the Satellite (WAN)
interface.
Remote Port B Baud Rate Allows the users to configure the baud rate of this port to any one of
the following setting:
4800
9600
19200
Remote Port B Data
Format Allows the users to configure the character format of this port to any
one of the following setting:
8-N-1
7-E-2
7-O-2
Remote Port B Device
Address Allows the user to specify the address of the modem when
communicated via the remote port.
