H.2 CDM-840 Header and Payload Compression Operation
The CDM-840 provides several means for configuring Header and Payload Compression Carrier
ID operation via Remote Product Control with a user-supplied PC:
• CDM-840 HTTP (Web Server) Interface using a compatible Web browser.
• Ethernet-based Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) using a Network
Management System (NMS) and Management Information Base (MIB) File Browser.
• Serial-based Remote Control Interface using a terminal emulation program or Windows
Command-line.
COMTECH EF DATA RECOMMENDS USE OF THE ETHERNET-BASED SNMP INTERFACE
AND SERIAL-BASED REMOTE CONTROL INTERFACE ONLY FOR ADVANCED USERS.
COMTECH EF DATA STRONGLY ENCOURAGES USE OF THE CDM-840 AND CDD-880
HTTP INTERFACES FOR MONITOR AND CONTROL (M&C) OF THE CDM-840 OR
CDD-880.
THE SERIAL AND HTTP INTERFACE FIGURES FEATURED THROUGHOUT THIS CHAPTER
ARE INTENDED FOR USER REFERENCE ONLY AND ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THE
FIRMWARE INFORMATION (I.E., REVISION LETTERS, VERSION NUMBERS, ETC.) AS
DISPLAYED MAY DIFFER FROM YOUR SETUP.
