7.6.1.2 Setting IPNet Interface
Before enabling the Ethernet IP interface, the following IP parameters need to be set:
IP Port address, Default Gateway, Subnet Mask, Receive IP Port and Lock IP address.
All IP related menu items consolidate under the Communication Setup menu. Press
the
Main Menu
key, select
2.Com.Setup
and press the
Enter
key, select
5.IP Setup
and press the
Enter
key.
The Lock IP address is a security measure. Setting this parameter either to
255.255.255.255 or 0.0.0.0 will allow any host to control the SSPA. Setting the param-
eter to the specific address of the remote host will lock SSPA access to this host.
Packets received from other hosts will be ignored.
For other parameters (IP address, Gateway, Subnet, IP port) contact your network sys-
tem administrator for assistance.
Important!
If the SSPA RM will be accessible over the Internet, exercise
appropriate security measures. Teledyne Paradise Datacom strongly rec-
ommends placing amplifiers behind a protective Firewall or setting up a
VPN link for remote access.
After selecting the IP parameters, turn on IP interfaces through front panel: Press the
Main Menu
key, select
2.Com.Setup
, press the
Enter
key; select
4.Interface
, press
the
Enter
key; select
3.IPNet
and press the
Enter
key.
Ethernet Interface is now the primary remote control interface and the RS232/485 Main
port is disabled. The user may adjust any IP settings when the IPNet interface is turned
on, as needed, without losing IP link. New settings become effective only after a hard-
ware reset (press the
Main Menu
key; select
5.Options
and press the
Enter
key; se-
lect
6.Reset
and press the
Enter
key; select
3.Coms Only
and press the
Enter
key; or
cycle power to the unit).
To disable the Ethernet port and enable the RS-232/RS-485 Serial Main port, press
the
Main Menu
key and select
2.Com.Setup
, press the
Enter
key; select
4.Interface
,
press the
Enter
key; select either
1.RS232
or
2.RS485
, and press the
Enter
key.
Important!
At present, the RM SSPA controller supports only one remote
control protocol selection through its Ethernet interface port. This protocol
is referred to as “Normal” on the front panel display (See
Section 3.1
through
Section
3.6
). If the protocol selection is set differently (Terminal),
the controller will force its protocol selection to “Normal”.
The RM SSPA Ethernet port can be connected to a network hub using straight through
network cable or directly to a work station NIC card through a null-modem or cross-
over cable (Rx and Tx lines are crossed). As soon as an Ethernet interface has been
