Chapter 5 - Configuring ROSS Units 5-13
MN/22156, rev 12 Using Parameter Editor
Figure 5-10 Modem Settings dialog, ROSS
Management Settings
Clicking on the Management menu item displays the Management Settings
dialog shown in figure 5-11.
This dialog provides the settings for Management Multicast Address and the
Network ID that this ROSS belongs to.
The Management Multicast Address sets the listening address of the active
managing VMS.
The Network ID that is assigned to the unit defines which network within the
managing VMS that the ROSS information will belong. All ROSS units used in
a specified network will have the same network ID. This parameter is used by
the VMS to identify units common to a network and allows the VMS to manage
multiple networks, each with its own unique network ID number.
This value is configurable from 1 -255 and is assigned by the network operator.
Zero (0) is an invalid value for this parameter setting, and will result in no
network assignment.
