Network Configuration
Figure 41. Network Configuration of Serial Port’s PPP Mode Settings.
Three serial port modes are available as described in the “Interfaces Window, Serial
Mode Tab” section on page 32.
The Point-to-Point Protocol (
PPP
) provides a standard way to establish a network
connection over a serial link. The radio runs PPP over the serial link at a baud rate of 115.2
Kbps allowing the user to configure the radio in the same way as the standard method
over the Ethernet port.
Figure 41 shows the
Point-to-Point Protocol Settings
. These settings are described in
the same “Interfaces Window, Serial Mode Tab” section on page 32. There is no
Apply
button on this window because application to a radio is deferred until uploaded using the
SpeedNet Client tool.
Figure 42. Network Configuration of Serial Port’s DNP Mode Settings.
Figure 42 shows network configuration of the
Distributed Network Protocol
Settings. These settings correspond to those in the SpeedNet Client tool described in the
“DNP Serial Mode” section on page 33. The
Repeater/SpeedGate Mode
settings should
not be used with the SpeedNet ME because that functionality is not supported on the
ME platform. There is no
Apply
button on this window because application to a radio is
deferred until uploaded using the SpeedNet Client tool.
