When the optional Packet Processor is INSTALLED, in addition to saving operational
parameters on an active page associated with Packet Processor operation, unless
otherwise noted you must also open the ‘Admin | Pap Save’ page (see Chapter
Sect. 7.4.3.2.7) and immediately click [Save PaP Parameters].
•
The pages marked (2) in this diagram are functional only when the FAST option is
purchased and activated for operation. Some features, while listed, are future
offerings and not available at this time (e.g., Encryption).
See Chapter 5. FAST ACTIVATION PROCEDURE for detailed information on
managing FAST options.
•
The navigation tabs and/or nested pages marked (3) in this diagram are provided
for monitor and control of a Comtech EF Data BUC (Block Up Converter) or LNB
(Low-Noise Block Down Converter). They are functional only when such products are
connected to the CDM/R-570AL (L-Band) Satellite Modem.
Similarly, the navigation tabs and/or nested pages marked (4) are provided for
monitor and control of a Comtech EF Data RF Transceiver (CSAT-5060 or
KST-2000A/B). They are functional only when such products are connected to the
CDM-570A (70/140 MHz) Satellite Modem.
See Chapter 10. CDM-570A/570AL ODU (TRANSCEIVER, BUC, LNB) M&C
OPERATION for detailed information on managing these products over the
available remote product management interfaces.
•
The navigation tab and page marked (5) in this diagram is provided for monitor and
control of a Comtech EF Data Redundancy Switch. This page is functional only when
such products are connected to the CDM-570A/570AL in a redundant
configuration:
o 1:1 Redundancy is supported using either a CRS-170A L-Band 1:1 Redundancy
Switch (when using CDM/R-570AL modems) or a CRS-180 70/140 MHz 1:1
Redundancy Switch (when using CDM-570A modems), and a user-provided, off-
the-shelf Ethernet switch.
o 1:N Redundancy is supported using a CRS-300/CRS-280L 1:10 Redundancy
Switch (when using CDM/R-570AL modems) or a CRS-300/CRS-280 1:10
Redundancy Switch (when using CDM-570A modems).
Refer to the pertinent switch Installation and Operation Manual for detailed
information on setting up and using the CDM-570A/570AL in redundant
operations.
