3.1.1.3 Host/Remote Switch
The Host/Remote Switch allows the user to switch the default Repeater IP, Subnet Mask, and Gateway of the
repeater to an alternative setup. These settings can be adjusted by logging into the ADX DAS in HOST mode and
configuring the settings under the Modem Box Setting section under the Install Page of NMS.
Once the settings are set, flipping the switch to the REMOTE position will reboot NMS module with the new
alternate settings. Please note that when the NMS is set to the REMOTE position, DHCP is disabled and the NMS
will not automatically assign an IP address to any device that connects directly to the NMS.

3.1.1.4 HE View/RU View Switch
The HE View/RU View Switch allows the user to disable the periodic monitoring performed by the NMS. In the
HE view mode, the NMS monitors the status of all subordinate units connected to NMS but when switched to HRU
view the NMS does not monitor the subordinate units. HRU View mode will allow the user to go to a HRU and
monitor/control the HE. If the NMS is set to the HE View mode and tries to connect to a HRU to monitor the HE,
data collisions between the NMS and HRU may prevent the user from properly monitoring or configuring the HE
when at the RU.
