CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 4
IP Module Ethernet Interface Overview MN/CDM570L.IOM
15.3.4 Configuration backup and restore via FTP
All Base Modem and IP Module configuration parameters are stored in a simple text file.
The parameter file can easily be retrieved locally or remotely by FTP. The file can then
be used to quickly configure a replacement modem if needed.
15.3.5 Event Logging to capture all IP Module activity
All IP Module activity can be stored into an easy-to-read Event Log. This file can also be
retrieved locally or remotely by FTP.
15.3.6 Detailed Statistics of IP traffic
IP traffic statistics are continuously updated and allow detailed performance analysis or
can be used to identify traffic problems. The statistics are available through the Serial
Console locally, or can be gathered remotely by Telnet, HTTP, or SNMP.
15.3.7 IGMP support for multicast
IGMP is a standard feature in the IP Module. If enabled, it responds to IGMP queries for
the configured multicast routes on the transmit side and generates IGMP queries on the
receive side. If there are no active IGMP receivers on the LAN, it will stop forwarding
the multicast traffic (received from the satellite) to the LAN.
15.3.8 CDM-570/570L Emulation Mode
With the IP module installed, the CDM-570/570L can be made to operate in
CDM-570/570L emulation mode, allowing any traffic to be sent and received using any
serial port. The emulation mode is selected from the front panel by selecting
Configuration/Interface and then selecting either RS-422, V.35, RS-232, or G.703 as the
interface rather than IP. The CDM-570/570L will then pass standard serial traffic, but
will not pass IP traffic. The IP Module can still be accessed via the Ethernet port using
Telnet, HTTP, or SNMP for configuring or monitoring the CDM-570/570L .
15.3.9 Static IP routing for unicast and multicast
Up to 256 static routes can be entered into the IP Module to direct IP traffic over the
satellite or to another device on the local LAN. These 256 routes could be in any
combination of unicast and multicast.
