8.3 M&C via SNMP


Set up the Mini Compact Outdoor SSPA with custom IP parameters by modifying the internal
IP settings using Paradise Datacom’s Universal M&C, version 4.4.3 or later. Use the default
Read and Write Community settings, or check the boxes to modify them. See Figure 8-7.

The Protocol setting in the Settings tab of the Universal M&C needs to be set to SNMP, as
shown in Figure 8-8.

After the desired IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway parameters have been set, the unit
will still use its default parameters. To make the new parameters active, reset the Mini
Compact Outdoor SSPA by removing its AC power. Unplug the Quick Start cable from the
M&C connector. (If the unit is restarted with the Quick Start cable connected, it will
always come up with default IP settings
). Apply power to the SSPA. Re-plug the Quick
Start cable into J4, and check connectivity with the custom IP settings.

If the custom IP settings will be used in normal operation, the user must construct an IP cable
or modify the Quick Start cable by disconnecting the interface control pins (pins j and e, Baud
Select 0 and Baud Select 1) from ground. In this configuration, the SSPA will always use the
saved communication control settings rather then rolling back to the default configuration.
