Chapter 6. ETHERNET-BASED
MANAGEMENT
6.1 Introduction
The SLM-5650B Satellite Modem features an RJ-45 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet management
interface for the purpose of remote monitor and control (M&C) of the modem. This port operates
in the Auto-Negotiation and Auto-Crossover mode.
You may use the optional Network Processor (NP) Interface Module as an alternate means of
M&C access. The NP Interface Module features four 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports labeled 1,
2, 3, and 4. The operational mode of these ports can be individually selected for Auto-
Negotiation or fixed mode operation.
The M&C interfaces inside the SLM-5650B are interconnected using an Ethernet Switch, which
allows both the Base Modem port and the NP Module ports to provide M&C access while the NP
is operating in Router modes.
6.2 Ethernet Management Interfaces & Protocols
A Windows-based user PC facilitates Ethernet-based remote monitor and control (M&C) of the
SLM-5650B through the following management protocols:
• Web Server (HTTP or HTTPS) Interface. The non-secure (HTTP) or secure (HTTPS)
interface requires a compatible user-supplied web browser such as Internet Explorer,
FireFox, or Google Chrome. These protocols are supported as follows:
o Base Modem M&C (HTTP/HTTPS)
o NP Module M&C (HTTP/HTTPS)
o TRANSEC Module M&C (HTTPS)
