AD160 HD Integrated Receiver Decoder User Manual
NMS Control & Operation
Except using the front panel to configure and operate the equipment, AD160 also
supplies the network management function. When you get the equipment, there should
be a CD containing the network management software. If you want to control and
operate the equipment via the network management software, please copy the software
from the CD to your server (Computer).
LAN parameters setting & connection establishment
Before logging on the equipment, you should use the front panel to configure the local
network setting.
Local network setting
Let‟s take an example to explain how
to configure the local network for connection. We
assume the server‟s IP is 192.168.1.2, network mask is 255.255.255.0 and gateway is
198.168.1.1. All these parameters in the equipment should be:
·
IP address: Local IP setting for connecting to the server.
This IP and the server‟s
IP should be in the same section. For example is can be 192.168.1.x, x can be 3
to 254.
·
Network Mask: Network Mask setting for connecting to the server. It should be
the same as server‟s. 255.255.255.0.
·
Gateway: Gateway setting for connecting to the server. It should be the same as
server‟s. 198.168.1.1
·
Trap IP address: This IP should be the same as the server‟s IP. Before
connection, it will verify the server‟s IP, if they are the same, the connection
will be allowed. It should be 192.168.1.2.
Connection
Connect the server and equipment via Ethernet port with an Ethernet cable before
running the network management software on the server. Then log on the NMS and
enter the user name and password, the default user name and password both are
“
admin”
, just as the following picture.
Notice: this NMS can manage several pieces of AD160 at the same time, as long as
these equipments are connected to the server via the Network Switch. Now we take
one piece of AD160 for example to illustrate the operation.
