Speed/Mode
Select the speed and mode for the connection from the options on the drop-
down menu.
Note: Auto mode is recommended unless the operator is absolutely certain the
device being connected does not have auto-negotiation available.
HDLC Addressing Mode
The drop-down menu for HDLC (High-level Data Link Control) Addressing
Mode shown in figure 2-4 displays five available modes (only the first four
modes are displayed for a CDD-56X):
• Small Network Mode
• Large Network Mode
• Point-to-Point Mode
• Vipersat Addressing
• Managed Switch Mode
Caution: Only the Vipersat Addressing mode configures the target modem to
communicate in a Vipersat network. Selecting any other mode will
remove the unit from the network.

When using the ParamEditor to configure a modem for operation in an environ-
ment other than a Vipersat network, refer to the unit’s documentation for details
on setting and configuring the device.
Managed Switch Mode
The Managed Switch mode uses a bridging mode which is not supported in
Vipersat networks. Refer to the CDM-570/570L’s documentation for availabil-
ity and detailed information on this mode.
