Control Ethernet
Overview
The Ethernet control ports are used to connect the equipment to nCompass Control [V6.5 on] or to a PC for access to the web
browser.
Ethernet Ctrl Port Numbering
Both connectors share the same IP address, Ctrl1 is the Primary control port, and is by default the active control port. Control Port
Ctrl2 should be considered as the secondary control network as it will not respond to the Control Port IP Address unless control has
been passed to it either as a result of a redundancy switch, or via a user command. The active control port switches when Ctrl1 has
no link (e.g. carrier), and Ctrl2 has the link.
Refer to:
Operation and Control >Basic Functions >
Ethernet: Control
for Control Port Parameters.
This equipment can be controlled using a single control connection.
Status and Activity Indication
Each Ethernet Control Port has a rear panel mounted status LEDs associated with it to indicate link status, activity and speed as
