5.4 Principal
Operating
Modes
5.4.1
Bridge Mode
When in Bridge Mode:
•
The Outdoor Cable Modem (OCM) only requests an RF interface IP address.
•
Logon to 192.168.100.1 (Ethernet interface) or RF interface IP to put OCM into Router Mode.
•
CPE (Ethernet) interface, Static IP and RIP are disabled.
5.4.2
Router Mode
When in Router Mode:
•
Default configuration – OCM requests both an RF interface IP (usually non-routable) and a
CPE / Remote Management interface IP (globally routable).
•
By default, the CPE (Ethernet) interface is the RIP source IP.
•
The Remote Management page defines ports on which the OCM listens for incoming
management requests to the CPE (Ethernet) interface.
•
If ‘Use RF IP as the RIP source IP’ is selected, then the OCM will use RF IP as the RIP
source IP and will not pull a CPE (Ethernet) IP.
o
LAN IP becomes CPE / Remote Management IP.
•
If a static CPE (Ethernet) IP is configured, DNS values must be assigned. In this
configuration there are three IP addresses assigned to the OCM:
o
RF
o
CPE / Remote Management
o
LAN
