DM240XR High-Speed Digital Modulator TCP/IP Ethernet Setup
MN-DM240XR– Revision 13 B–2
c. NON-VOL : This will allow for setting up all required IP Addresses and will store the
information to the non-volatile memory. Upon power cycle, the modem will restore the
saved settings into the correct fields.
d. IP TEST
•
IP MASK 255.255.255.000
: The IP Test selection is similar in behavior to the Default selection. When
enabled, the following preset parameters will be programmed and will not change until
the selection is changed. To edit these parameters, change the boot mode to NON-VOL.
•
MODEM IP ADDR 192.168.000.238
•
SERVER IP ADDR 192.168.000.101
•
ROUTER IP ADDR 192.168.000.102
The DM240XR is shipped from the factory with the Boot Mode configured as
Default. Verify that the Boot Mode is set for Default. To access the unit via the
Ethernet port, set the selection to IP TEST. This will set the IP parameter to an
accessible address. If user wants to utilize an alternate address, user must set the
selection to NON-VOL. As an example, we will use a new modem IP address of
172.018.100.205 for the remaining of the TCP-IP setup procedure. Contact the
IT manager for proper guidance to ensure setup is successful.
2. BOOT SERVER TAG : This allows for the selection of the operating boot tag when operating in
the BOOTp Mode. The default setting of 206 is automatically selected when the boot mode is set
to ‘DEFAULT’ (factory preset mode).
3. MODEM HOST : This displays the unit Host name that is operating, such as “DM240”. This is
a read only display.
4. IP ADDR MASK : This will allow for the entry of the IP Address Mask. This will need to be
entered based on the Network settings. Refer to your IP Administrator if you do not know this
address for the correct address setting. Example IP Address Mask setting: 255.255.000.000.
5. MODEM IP ADDR : This will allow for the entry of the Modem‘s individual network IP
Address. Each device on the network will have a unique address. Refer to the IT administrator
for the correct address setting. Example Modem IP Address setting: 172.018.100.215.
6. SERVER IP ADDR
: This allows for the setup of the Network Server IP Address. This section
refers to the Host that will be used to optionally boot the DM240 on power-up and is the SNMP
Trap Server. This IP Address needs to be consistent with the Modem IP Address. Broadcast and
loop back addresses will not be allowed. Example Server IP Address setting: 172.018.004.250.
7. ROUTER IP ADDR
IMPORTANT
: This allows for the setup of the Network Router IP Address. If a router is
present on the local network, and it is to be used, this address must be consistent with the IP
Address Mask and the subnet of the modem. If no router is present, then the address should be
