Default Gateway
The Default Gateway assigned to the CMR-6000’s LAN interface. The Default Gateway is entered in
dotted decimal format and must be within the subnet of the IP Address assigned to the LAN interface.
The Default Gateway is the address of a local router to which all non-local subnet traffic will be directed.

Unicast Routing Configuration Menu

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
If an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cannot be achieved, then incoming
Unicast is 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).
