Comtech EF Data CDM-570L - Setting IP Address(es

CDM-570/570L Satellite Modem with Optional IP Module Revision 4
Appendix D MN/CDM570L.IOM
D.2.3 Setting IP Address(es)
Step Description
1
From the Main Menu select Network Interface Configuration sub-menu [I].
2
From the Interface Configuration Menu select Ethernet Interface (fei0) sub-menu [E].
3
Set Ethernet IP Address [I].
CDM-IP 1 to 172.16.10.1
CDM-IP 2 to 172.16.10.2
4
Set Subnet Prefix Length [M] to 24
Set Remote HDLC IP Address to 192.168.1.2
The other parameters can be left to their factory default settings.
At this point the basic configuration is over and you should be able to:
5
From PC1
Ping 172.16.10.1 (CDM-IP 1)
Ping 172.16.10.2 (CDM-IP 2)
Ping 172.16.10.12 (PC 2)
6
From PC2
Ping 172.16.10.2 (CDM-IP 2)
Ping 172.16.10.1 (CDM-IP 1)
Ping 172.16.10.11 (PC 1)
IMPORTANT
Do not enable IF Loopback (or link the TX to RX by a BNC cable or satellite link) on a
CDM-IP modem operating in easyConnect when connected to a LAN. In this
configuration, easyConnect will resend all layer 2 broadcast packets and cause a
“broadcast storm” on the LAN.
