4.2
Modem Configuration
4.2.1 Modem Power
Connect
the
power
cords
of
each
modem
to
a
power
supply
and
turn
both
modems
ON
.
4.2.2 Modem Firmware and Hardware Requirements
For
the
CRS
‐
311
to
operate
correctly
when
configured
for
use
with
the
CDM
‐
Qx/QxL
or
SLM
‐
5650/5650A
modems,
the
Traffic
Modem
and
the
Redundant
Modem
must
be
of
the
same
model
having
identical
hardware
configurations,
equipped
with
the
same
option
modules
–
all
with
the
same
firmware
versions.
This
is
mandatory
for
the
Redundant
Modem
to
properly
mimic
operation
of
the
Traffic
Modem
upon
switchover.
CDM
‐
Qx/QxL
Firmware
and
Hardware
Requirements:
For
proper
redundant
operation,
regardless
of
data
interface,
CDM
‐
Qx/QxL
Firmware
Version
1.1.4
or
later
must
be
used.
SLM5650/5650A
Firmware
and
Hardware
Requirements:
In
order
to
support
the
desired
redundancy,
the
appropriate
firmware
must
be
loaded
in
the
SLM
‐
5650/5650A
base
modem,
Network
Processor
(if
applicable)
and
CRS
‐
311.
Higher
versions
of
the
firmware
continue
support
for
the
given
interface
(i.e.
the
highest
version
supports
all
interfaces);
the
lowest
firmware
versions,
required
to
support
a
given
interface
type,
are
as
follows:
Interface Type
SLM-5650
Base
Modem
SLM-5650A
Base

4.2.2.1 Flash Upgrading
For
detailed
instructions
on
upgrading
modem
firmware
via
flash
upgrade,
See
the
pertinent
modem’s
Installation
and
Operation
Manual
.
4.2.3 Modem Operational Configuration
This
chapter
assumes
user
familiarity
with
the
individual
modems’
front
panel
menu
navigation,
and
their
configuration
parameter
selection
methods.
For
detailed
instructions
on
changing
configuration
settings
using
the
front
panel
keypad
and
menus,
see
the
Front
Panel
