To access the device via VNC, you will need to use a VCN viewer application and enter the IP
address of the XM device, along with the password when prompted for.

Serial Number Broadcast configuration
The XM device Linux version can identify itself over the IP network by sending out its serial
number as a broadcast IP packet. The Serial Number Broadcast (SNB) service is started by default
at device boot-up and will broadcast a specific identification message to the local network every
fifth second. The message send frequency can be modified and the service can be completely
disabled using the configuration file
/opt/etc/ccsnb.conf
. This file does not exist by default. Default
values are used if any value is unset or the file does not exist.
