REMOTE PRODUCT

MANAGEMENT

6.1 Overview

A user-supplied, Windows-based PC is used for Ethernet-based Remote Product Management of

the CDM-625 Advanced Satellite Modem. The User PC facilitates this access through three

separately-operated protocols:

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) – This requires a user-supplied Network

Management System (NMS) and a user-supplied Management Information Base (MIB) File

Browser.

Telnet Interface – This requires use of a user-supplied terminal emulation program such as

HyperTerminal (for use with the remote control protocol) or PuTTY (for use with the Telnet

Command Line Interface), installed on the User PC.

CDM-625 Web Server (HTTP) Interface – This requires a compatible user-supplied web

browser such as Internet Explorer, installed on the User PC.

6.2 Ethernet Management Interface Connectors

The CDM-625 base unit is equipped with four RJ-45 10/100 BaseT Ethernet connectors, subject

to the following conditions:

• When Dedicated Management is disabled, you may use any port for Ethernet-based remote

monitor and control (M&C) purposes.

• When Dedicated Management is enabled, you may use only that specific port for Ethernet-

based remote monitor and control (M&C) purposes.
