4.2.10 Unicast Routing Configuration
The Unicast Routing Configuration page addresses the CMR-6000’s configuration for handling Unicast
traffic over the transport stream. This feature is only used in the MPE/IP configuration.
Allow Unicast
Selects whether the CMR-6000 will support the routing of Unicast traffic.
Route unknown to default gateway
When selected, all incoming Unicast that is not destined for the CMR-6000 local network subnet will be
directed to the configured default gateway.
Filter on Satellite MAC (MPE/IP)
The hardware Media Access Control (MAC) address assigned for Unicast operation. When the satellite
MAC is defined, the CMR-6000 will only route Unicast traffic that is specifically addressed to the
satellite MAC. This value does not affect the characteristics of multicast data flow.
Digicast receivers do not need to filter on MAC. Some third party encapsulators/receivers may need to
filter on MAC, and if the MAC is configured on the Encapsulator for a Unicast Route.
Satellite MAC (MPE/IP)
The hardware Media Access Control (MAC) address assigned for Unicast operation. When the satellite
MAC is defined, the CMR-6000 will only route Unicast traffic that is specifically addressed to the
satellite MAC. This value does not affect the characteristics of multicast data flow. Do not use the CMR-
6000 Ethernet MAC – this address should be the MAC assigned by the route defined in the Encapsulator
at the uplink (head-end).
