General
The Vipersat ArrangeLink Circuit Scheduler is a satellite circuit scheduling
system which works with the Vipersat Management System (VMS) to establish
satellite network circuits automatically based on predefined time and date
settings. ArrangeLink supports both point-to-multipoint (broadcasting) and
point-to-point InBand satellite circuits.
ArrangeLink capabilities include:
• Support for InBand point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and upstream
switch circuits.
• Schedules based on the circuit type, start/end date/time, transmission data
rate, transmitter node and receiver node circuit types.
• Viewing schedules by user-configured filters. Filter parameters include
circuit type, schedule type, start/end date/time, status, and tags. The
contents of a schedule include schedule name, circuit type, transmitter,
receiver, start/end date/time, data rate, and status.
• Operator control of a running event such as immediate termination, or
modification of the end date and time. For a pending scheduled event, the
user can start immediately, modify, or delete the event.
• Viewing a schedule's details of assigned circuit channel, reserved
bandwidth slot, Modulator/Demodulator list, and link quality (E

).
• Executing a scheduled event based on the detailed requirements for the
event, such as participating nodes, data rates, start date and time, end date
and time, and circuit type. All participating nodes are automatically
