Appendix H. Manual configuration of parameters normally
configured automatically from the Hub
This Appendix explains how to configure manually using the CLI parameters that for most SatLink
systems are configured automatically by the Hub NMS when the SatLink VSAT enters the network for
the first time.
Do not configure any of these parameters manually unless being instructed to do so by the
Hub operator as wrong configuration may break IP connectivity for the SatLink VSAT.
H.1 IP address configuration
The Hub operator manages all IP addresses in the system including the DVB interface IP address and the
LAN IP addresses of all VSATs. The IP addresses are normally set automatically in the VSAT by the
Hub operator when the VSAT logs on to the network for the first time, but can as well be configured
manually. Below is described the procedure for manual configuration of IP addresses.
Please make sure that the IP addresses and net masks are entered exactly as specified by the Hub operator,
as any deviation may result in loss of communication with the IP network.
1) Set the LAN IP address of the unit
– Enter the CLI command
ip set 1 <aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd> <eee.fff.ggg.hhh>
where
<aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd> is the IP address and <eee.fff.ggg.hhh> the net mask.
Example:
# ip set 1 10.10.20.1 255.255.255.248
2) Set the DVB IP address (Satellite interface) of the unit:
– Enter the CLI command
ip set 3 <aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd> <eee.fff.ggg.hhh>
where
<aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd> is the IP address and <eee.fff.ggg.hhh> the net mask.
Example:
# ip set 3 10.10.21.1 255.255.255.0
3) Verify that the IP addresses and net masks are set correctly:
– Enter the CLI command
ip show
