with your network administrator for the correct IP

Authorization Time-out Period
(hours) 2
Important: Negative values are not permitted in this
field. If you define a value greater than 2, be aware
of the following issues:

The podDAta file can contain no more than 1500
entries. During staging, the CableCARD
module/host pair is added to the podData file
for the length of time indicated by this field.
When this time has expired, the pod/host pair
is removed from the file.

If you attempt to exceed 1500 entries during the
time-out period that you have defined, the
CableCARD module/host pairs will be unable
to bind.
De-Authorization Time-out Period
(days) 30
Important: If this value is too large, it could
interfere with the total number of authorization
entries that can be added to the podData file and
could also interfere with the binding of the
CableCARD module/host pairs.
