Menu Options/Fields Entry Description
Optionally: If the user enters a multicast address
(224.0.0.0-239.255.255.255) as the destination IP
address, then the following parameters will be
requested:
Route MultiCast packets from Ethernet to Satellite?
[y/n]
The option allows the user to specify if multicast
packets that match the provided IP address will be
routed from the Ethernet to Satellite. “No” means that
the packets will be discarded.
Route MultiCast packets from Satellite to Ethernet?
[y/n]
The option allows the user to specify if multicast
packets that match the provided IP address will be
routed from the Satellite to Ethernet. “No” means that
the packets will be discarded.
Multicast Routes always have a subnet length of 32
and the next hop is 0.0.0.0 because it is not applicable.
Note: The CiM does allow the specification of one and
only one default route. Destination IP =
0.0.0.0 Subnet Length = 0 Next Hop IP =
<some next hop address>
This will cause all packets which do not match
any other route to be sent to the Next Hop IP
for further processing.
Base B The Route Table menu allows the user to view up to 8
different routes per screen. To allow editing on any of the
1024 entries that can be defined, the user can select a
base address to control which 8 routes are displayed. For
example, if the user wants to edit Routes 32-40, then a
Base value of 32 should be defined.
Delete Route D Route Name to delete
Display All P Displays all of the routes that are currently defined in the
system. This will include automatically generated routes
which are provided to simplify provisioning of the system.
The information displayed is: Route Name,
DestIP/SnetBits, Next Hop, and Flags
QoS/DES Q Activates QoS/DES page.
Downlink Mcast Read
Only
Read only status of Downlink Multicast (Enabled or
Disabled).
Save Parameters S This option allows a user to save the current configuration
of the CiM to permanent storage. This configuration will be
restored on each successive power cycle of the CiM.
Exit X This option allows a user to exit the current menu and
return to its parent menu.
