Load Switching—STDMA Hub
Before discussing how load switching is determined, it is necessary to explain
the modem/router parameters that control the switch.
Hub Switching Parameters
The screens shown in figure B-2 (CDM-570/570L modem/router) and
figure B-3 (SLM-5650A modem/router) are examples that show the entries in
the Automatic Switching page at the Hub that are used to control load switch-
ing.

Auto Switching – This is a Vipersat feature that is enabled in the CDM-
570/570L Features menu. If Auto Switching is not enabled, Load
Switching will be ignored. There is no automatic switching enable button
in the SLM-5650A modem configuration menus; the operator enables
each switching function individually.
