Network ID

The Network ID designation defines to which Vipersat network the modem/

router belongs. All devices in a common network will have the same network

ID.
The network ID is used by the VMS to identify Vipersat units within a network

and allows the VMS to manage multiple networks, each with its own unique

network ID number.
Valid range is 1 to 254.

Base Port

The Base Port is the management port used by the VMS to send and receive

management UDP packets (see section “Vipersat Manager Configuration” on

page 3-12).
The Base Port sets the starting IP port addressing for all VMS messages. Chang-

ing this address base will affect the entire network, requiring configuration

changes to all modems. Leave this setting at default C000(hex)/49152(decimal)

to avoid unnecessary configuration changes. Altering this setting is ONLY

necessary if network port addressing is in contention.
