Network Configuration (Typical with or without Packet Processor)
•
IP Address/Mask – Use this field to configure the modem’s Management IP Address.
•
Managed Switch Gateway IP – Use this field to configure this IP Address.
•
Managed Switch MAC Learning (applicable only in Managed Switch Mode) – Use the drop-
down list to select MAC Learning as Enabled or Disabled.
•
Traffic UP Address/Mask (not applicable in Managed Switch Mode) – Use this field to
configure the modem’s Traffic IP Address. Note that this address is assigned automatically
when the modem is running in Managed Switch Mode.
•
MAC Address – This parameter is read-only and cannot be changed.
•
Dedicated Management Port – This feature is available when the optional Packet Processor
is INSTALLED, but it is unavailable when VLAN Mode is Enabled.

•
Actual Negotiated Port Speed – This column identifies the port’s current operational speed
and send/receive settings.
VLAN Brouter (with optional Packet Processor INSTALLED)
VLAN Brouter mode operation is special mode of operation where VLAN traffic is bridged and
non-VLAN traffic in routed using static route table information.
When Brouter mode is used in a hub-spoke network, the remote routers receives the whole
outbound traffic transmitted by the hub. Since VLAN traffic is transmitted to the remote routers
using a broadcast HDLC address, the receiver FPGA in the remote CDM-570A/570ALs will
forward all the traffic to the CPU. In addition to the hub receiving traffic the remote routers
shall also forward the return link (remote to hub) traffic.
•
Typical for VLAN Brouter Mode, VLAN Brouter Tx Payload Compression, VLAN Remote
Mode, and VLAN Filtering – Use the drop-down lists to Enable or Disable operation.
