CTOG-250 Comtech Traffic Optimization Gateway Revision 1
Introduction MN-CTOG250
1–3
The CTOG-250 provides seven IEEE 802.3ab 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) interfaces:
• (1X) for Management traffic
• (1X) for WAN traffic
• (2X) for LAN traffic
• (1X) (EXP-NET1) to pass traffic coming back from remote sites when in BPM (Bridge
Point-to-Multipoint) mode
• (1X) for Expansion traffic (FUTURE)
• (1X) for IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) LAN operations (FUTURE)
A 9-pin D-subminiature serial port is provided for remote product management purposes.
1.2 CTOG-250 Functional Description
Based on a carrier-grade platform with dual multi-core processors, the CTOG-250 provides packet
processing and traffic optimization for the high speed DVB-S2 outbound. It offloads the incoming
IP datagrams from the CDM-800 and packages them into DVB-S2 baseband frames for
transmission to the CDM-800 via its Gigabit Ethernet interface.
• Sect. 1.4 CTOG-250 Specifications
• Appendix A. REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION
The unit is managed through multiple interfaces providing options for both in-band and out-of-
band monitor and control:
• Sect. 7.3 (ETHERNET-BASED PRODUCT MANAGEMENT) SNMP (MIB II and
Private MIB)
• Sect. 7.4 (ETHERNET-BASED PRODUCT MANAGEMENT) Web Server (HTTP)
Interface
• Chapter 8. SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT
Field update of the operating system firmware is possible through file upload via satellite or the
Ethernet port.
Chapter 4. UPDATING FIRMWARE
Field activation of software-based options is possible through Comtech’s FAST (Fully Accessible
System Topology) Feature upgrade process.
