Chapter 3. easyConnect™
easyConnect™ is Comtech EF Data’s intelligent networking technology intended to
allow easy integration of turboIP™ into existing networks. It also simplifies design and
installation of a new network. It reduces network reconfiguration that is required when
introducing turboIP
™ into an existing link. easyConnect™ can be turned ON after
turboIP V3.0 or later.
3.1 easyConnect™ ON
With easyConnect™ enabled, turboIP™ can be added to existing links without impacting
existing non-TCP traffic and without having to reconfigure existing network devices. It
also reduces the complexity when designing and installing a new network.
easyConnect™ mode:
All IP and Non-IP traffic is transparently bridged.
IP multicast is transparently bridged
Unicast IP datagrams that do not contain TCP payload are transparently bridged,
and can be assigned a Priority or bandwidth restriction with Selective
Acceleration Rules.
Unicast IP datagrams that contain TCP payload can be assigned a Priority or
bandwidth restriction with Selective Acceleration Rules. Also, Selective
Acceleration can be used to designate which TCP traffic is accelerated and which
is not accelerated.
With easyConnect™ mode, the unit has only one IP address (Management IP Address)
that both the LAN and WAN port will respond to.
