1.2 Initial Configuration
The STM SatLink VSAT IDU must be configured before it can communicate via the satellite to and from
the network Hub. The parameters to be configured are explained in section 6.2.
The configuration of the VSAT IDU can be carried out using the configuration tools:
• Web-interface (basic configuration only)
• Command Line Interface (CLI)
- Via RS232/Terminal emulator (e.g. HyperTerminal)
- Telnet
• SNMP
The SatLink VSAT Web-interface is used as the main interface for initial configuration of the VSAT
parameters and is presented in section 6. The status monitoring of the VSAT using Web interface is
presented in section 7. Configuration via CLI is presented in section 9 and management via SNMP is
presented in Appendix E. The Web interface can be used for most common configuration tasks, while
advanced configuration is only available via SNMP and CLI.
