and to indicate whether the unit is ‘spare’ or ‘live’. For more information about system redundancy
within nCC please contact your system administrator.
The controls for this are:
•
DSM IP – The IP address of the DSM IP packets to be placed
on the network.
• DSM Dest Port – The destination port for the DSM packets.
• DSM TTL – User configuration for the time to live filed in the
DSM packets.
• DSM TOS – User configuration of the type of service
(differentiated services field) within the packet.
• DSM TX Interval – Interval in ms between each DSM packet
placed onto the network.
• CSM IP – The IP address of the CSM packets within the
network.
• CSM Dest Port – The destination port for the CSM packets.
• CSM Timeout – Timeout in ms before CSMs are considered to
be absent from the network.
• Connection Status – Status of the unit within the redundancy
network.
• DSM Version – There are several versions of CSM / DSM
redundancy within nCC networks, for the correct version of
redundancy for your system please contact your system

3.9.2.3.5. MAC Address Configuration
This permits the overriding of the MAC addresses used by the Control Ethernet ports and the IP
Input Data Ethernet ports of the IP Input card (1914) and Combined Satellite/IP Input card (1931).
The first 3 octets of the MAC address are the MediaKind OUI, followed by 1 octet identifying the
MediaKind product, and a final pair of octets derived from the serial number of the Base unit.
It is recommended that these settings not be adjusted unless advised
to do so by MediaKind Customer Services.
• EUROCARD MAC Serial - This allows the lower 2 octets of the
IP Input card (1914) and Combined Satellite/IP Input card
(1931), if fitted, to be changed to a manually specified value.
• Default EUROCARD MAC Serial - This is the default value
that will be used for the EUROCARD MAC Serial.
• Incorrect MAC Address – This option is only exposed on
some RX8300 variant IRDs where there was an issue with the
assignment of MAC address to the Control Ethernet ports.
Changing this setting will result in the Control MAC
address being changed, potentially causing a loss of
connectivity to the receiver.
• Clearing this tick box will mean the correct MAC address is calculated
and applied to the Control Ethernet ports.
