Eclipse Edge User Manual
C addressing, meaning a class C mask of 255.255.255.0 will provide the capture
needed. Regardless, a Class A netmask of 255.0.0.0 can be used, which will capture
all class A, B, and C addressing. Once communication with the radio has been
established, the actual radio subnet mask will be displayed in its Configuration >
Networking screen, whereupon the correct default gateway and netmask should be
entered in the PC TCP/IP properties.
• If you only need to view the radio that your PC is physically connected to, you can
stay with the ‘temporary’ subnet mask.
• If you need to view other radios on the local LAN, or remote radios on the NMS
network, the correct gateway and subnet mask must be entered on your PC, at which
point the Portal connection must be re-started.
If you are using auto-discovery to learn the IP address to connect to a new,
unconfigured radio, bear in mind that the configuration process will require entry of
a new IP address for the radio. When the configuration is saved, the Portal PC will not
be able to communicate with the radio, until a new LAN-compatible IP address is
entered on your PC.
NOTE:
The need to set a LAN compatible IP address on your Portal PC is
avoided if the Eclipse radios are configured as DHCP servers, and
your PC is set to obtain an IP address automatically.
Starting Portal
Connect your PC using a standard LAN cable and go to Portal Start Up.
For information on the LAN cable, refer to PC to Eclipse Edge Cabling and
Connectors.
• For a DHCP connection, refer to
Using an Ethernet DHCP Connection on
page 18
.
• For a TCP/IP connection, refer to
Using a TCP/IP Connection on page 20
.
• For the connection process, refer to
Connection Process on page 21
.
PC to Eclipse Edge Cabling and Connectors
Connect from the LAN port on your PC to an Eclipse NMS 10/100Base-T port using
a standard RJ-45 to RJ-45 LAN cable. The cable can be a Mdi (straight) or MdiX
(crossover) type. Most Ethernet cables are Mdi.
Eclipse Edge IDUspe has two front-panel NMS 10/100Base-T ports. Either port can
be used.
