• PID: The Program Identifier (PID) assigned to a particular route. PIDs do not have to be unique and
may be assigned to one or more routes.
• MAC: The MAC address assigned to a given route. For Unicast, this is typically the MAC address of
the satellite receiver card at the remote location to which the data is being sent. For Multicast, the
MAC address is generated for the route when the route is created.
• VLAN: VLAN support options:
• None: No VLAN traffic will be passed. Only traffic without a VLAN tag will be passed.
• All: All traffic received with VLAN tags will be passed and all non-VLAN traffic will be
blocked.
• VLAN ID: ID must match the VLAN ID field. If the VLAN ID is set, only traffic on the configured
VLAN ID will be passed.
• VLAN ID: A valid VLAN ID for the desired route. The valid ranges of the VLAN ID are 0 to 4095.
• GTD BW: The Guaranteed Bandwidth offered to a given route. The route will be guaranteed a
minimum of this amount of bandwidth on the CMR-8500. This will only function if the “Enforce
Egress QoS” option on the Management:Main tab is enabled.
• MAX BW: The maximum bandwidth allowed for a given route. Any traffic that exceeds the
maximum bandwidth for this route will be silently discarded. Valid only if “Enforce Egress QoS”
option on the Management:Main tab is enabled.
• IP COPY: Enables IP Copy for this route. If disables, then the route is handled as a standard IP route
via the assigned IP address, subnet mask, and configured MAC address. Refer to Addendum B for
details.
• PACKED: Enables section packing for this route. Section packing adds efficiency to the transport,
but adds latency.
• PSI: Allows the user to select whether the route is present or not present in the PSI table. The PSI
must be enabled for the route to be included in the PSI table.
The CMR-8500 supports up to 1,000 routes contained within the PSI table.
