EP (User) Management
Refer the following
Figure 6
as the example for generic EP management. Each EP is identified by its built-in
HCNA
MAC
address. The HCNA device resides at XL-HCW224C is regarded as the
Master
(Local) device, and is used to
manage other connected
Slave
EPs. The HCNA MAC exists only in HCNA (coax) domain, and is unaware for any
EP end-
user in Ethernet domain. System manager needs system
IP
address and
Ethernet MAC
address to access XL-
HCW224C.
Each XL-HCW224C device should be stamped with both Ethernet MAC and HCNA MAC for identification.
