Æ To configure the Operational States of the hub site unit
1. Click the Enabled check box
2. Click the Configure button
The Hub Site Configuration dialog box with the current status of the
ODUs is displayed.
3. Select the type of unit configuration from the drop-down list.
Because only the relevant options are displayed according to the
hardware configuration of each unit, usually the remote site will
have only the Independent Unit option available.
4. Select the appropriate RFP radio button. Some RFP options may be
disabled depending on the BW previously selected.
Take care to avoid incorrect configuration of bandwidth, RFP or to set
multiple Hub Sync Masters, as system interference can occur.
