CDM-IP Ethernet port. ICMP
response is ‘Request timed out’.

b)

Verify Ethernet connection – cables, hub, etc. PC,
hub, and CDM-IP should have Ethernet activity
LED lit.

Note: A PC must be connected to the CDM-IP

using a hub, switch or a RJ45 crossover
cable. When the CDM-IP Ethernet port
senses an Ethernet connection, the CLI
will display;

phymon_callback(): enet link
change! link=1

If the connection is broken, the CLI will
display;

phymon_callback(): enet link
change! link=0

No Ping response from the
locally connected PC to the
remote CDM-IP or remote PC.
ICMP response is ‘Request
timed out’.

a)

Verify both CDM-IP’s are in EasyConnect

/Point-

to-Point Modes.

b)

Verify IF link between modems for proper settings
and carrier quality (RX signal level, Eb/No, etc). It
is possible that there is a spectrum inversion,
particularly if you are using the CDM-IP with RF
converter equipment. If this is the case, the signal
level & Eb/No may be OK, but no data will be
received. To correct this invert the TX and RX
Spectrum on one of the CDM-IP’s.

c)

Send a constant ping from the PC 1 ‘ping
172.16.10.2 –t’ to PC 2. In the CDM-IP 1, go to
Operations and Maintenance/Diagnostics. Enable
‘Dump Packets transmitted to Satellite Interface’.
Verify that the Pings are being transmitted by
observing 1 packet on CLI every second. If not
displayed, reverify PC 1 and CDM-IP 1 settings.
Disable ‘Dump Packets transmitted to Satellite
Interface’ by entering ‘T’.

d)

Continue sending constant ping from the PC 1 to
PC 2. In the CDM-IP 2, go to Operations
Maintenance/Diagnostics. Enable ‘Dump Packets
received from Satellite Interface’. Verify that the
Pings are being received by observing 1 packet on
CLI every second. If not displayed, reverify PC 2
and CDM-IP 2 settings. Disable ‘Dump Packets
received from Satellite Interface’ by entering ‘R’.

Note: All pings transmitted will require a reply to

be transmitted from the target host. Use
the Diagnostics ‘Dump Packets” tools to
isolate where packets are lost in the CDM-
IP duplex paths. Also, always disable
“Dump Packets” before sending live traffic.
