System configurations indicated above allow for either Ethernet or serial interfaces. In
bridge mode, all the network devices are on the same IP subnet. In router mode, the
Ethernet connection on the polling master unit and the remote(s) use different IP subnets.
A hub or switch may be used to allow multiple devices to connect to the ViPR radio modem.
Serial connections are transparent pass-through connections, allowing the use of legacy
serial devices in the ViPR product environment.
