The ‘Default CAP’ group allows for default priority mapping of packets that do not have a VLAN or TOS bit
(or if these are disabled). Settings are available for Unicast (directed to a host).
•
IGMP - (default CAP 3) – sets the channel access priority for IGMP frames – these are the group
management frames, not the stream data
• Unicast – (default CAP 1) – sets the default channel access priority for unicast frames not matching any
other classification or mapping.
• IGMP managed Multicast Stream (Fixed to CAP 2) – sets the default channel access priority for stream
data belonging to a snooped IGMP multicast group.
• Multicast/Broadcast – sets the default CAP for multicast frames not in a snooped group and for
broadcast frames.
After making CAP settings, click the Update button to update the value, and then click the Close button to
save new setting.
4.3 Privacy
The Privacy configuration page provides a means for managing the local network and providing additional
security for the logical network and also to select the devices that has to be included in the network. All
Powerline devices are shipped using a default logical network (network name), which is normally
“HomePlugAV”
The Privacy configuration homepage allows you to change the Network Name of the PROLiNK® PPL1201
Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter that is currently connected to this computer into a private network. Reset the
private network to universal public network by clicking on the “Use Default (Public Network)” or
entering/editing “HomePlugAV” under column of “Private Network Name” is always available.
Note that every PROLiNK® PPL1201 Powerline AV Ethernet Adapter on your home network MUST have the
same Network Password for connectivity to be established throughout your home.
Note:
Changing the network name to anything other than “HomePlugAV” will show the network type on the Main
configuration screen as “Private”.
