This section will discuss the CDMA (Wireless) configurations. The CDMA
modem hardware should be installed. In the 8100/9100 models, only one
communication type is allowed for all hosts.

TCP/IP A

DDRESSES

The Ethernet-equipped ATM communicates using Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP), allowing it to send and receive information in
the form of small packets of digital data. In order to configure the ATM to
correctly access the enterprise network using this protocol, IP addresses must
be entered into the appropriate ATM setup functions. The Addresses are the
H

OST

IP A

DDRESS

(located under the Configure Processors parameters) and

L

ISTENING

P

ORT

(located under the Configure Terminal parameters). The

T

ERMINAL

IP A

DDRESSES

are auto-detected and can not be changed.

The H

OST

IP A

DDRESS

is the IP address of the server that processes the terminal

transactions. The L

ISTENING

P

ORT

value identifies the data being sent to that

specific machine.

TCP/IP T

IMEOUT

is the time that the terminal will wait from the message to be

sent to the host and the time it takes for the host to respond.

If Triton Connect® ATM monitoring software is being used, the applicable IP
addresses for the Triton Connect host computer must also be entered.

C

HANGES

There is functionality in the terminal software that makes reference to TCP/IP
but is actually dealing with the Ethernet “hardware” which happens to use
TCP/IP as its communication protocol. Wireless modems will use TCP/IP
communication protocol. To eliminate confusion between what is considered
hardware and the communications protocol, there will be several locations
where the text will change from “TCP/IP” to “Ethernet”.
