The MDS iNET 900 can be monitored and configured through its
embedded management system as detailed elsewhere in this manual.
Below is a flowchart of the primary menu items of this system. The fol-
lowing pages will provide details on the defaults and range of acceptable

unit is operating in the Access Point or Remote mode, and some will
require an Authorization Key.
