Ethernet Settings Box
Shown below is the Ethernet Settings Box on the Web page,
which contains the network settings information for the
frame. Also in this box are some controls to set a custom
IP address and a text box to enter a description or location
information of the frame.
Card Slot Information
Following the Ethernet Settings Box on the Web page is the
card information for each slot in the chassis. The information
for each slot is contained within its own individual box for
easy identification. Slots which are not populated with a
card will show blank information.
At the top of each Slot, Information Box is the Slot number,
followed by the type of card that is installed in the slot and
its software revision (if applicable). If a slot is empty, the card
type and revision information will be blank.
The first table in a Slot Information Box displays the
information about the SFP modules that are plugged into the
SFP Cages on the card. Displayed are the SFP Module type
and current operating temperature of each SFP in degrees
Celsius. Cages which are empty will show blank information.
The second table in a Slot Information Box displays the
information about the video signals that are present on the
card. The table is organized in rows with respect to the BNC
connectors which are numbered 1 to 4 from top to bottom
on the card.
Each BNC can be either an SDI Input or SDI Output depending
on the types of SFP Modules that are plugged into the card.
The direction is automatically configured when the SFP is
installed. The direction of each BNC is shown, followed by
the Video Data Rate and Signal Lock information. Following
that is the Optical Power, transmitted or received, and the
Optical Port the BNC is associated with. Optical ports are
numbered 1 to 4 from top to bottom on the card. If the BNC is
an Input, the Optical Power shown is the Transmitted Power
onto the fiber. If the BNC is an output, the Optical Power
shown is the Received Power from the fiber.
ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CARDS
SNMP MONITORING
SNMP System Overview
The Network Controller Card can provide optional support
for remote monitoring of your VF-9000 frame using the
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This protocol
is compatible with many third-party monitoring and control
tools.
The SNMP agent running in the frame will accept SNMP
requests on the default SNMP port (161), using SNMP version
1. The SNMP Agent will send SNMP Traps to a notification
target, with user-configurable IP address and port number.
