Chapter 3 - VMS Configuration 3-47
VMS Network Configuration
At this point, the Remote site icon will snap to a location on the globe based
on the GPS reading that the ROSS is receiving from the antenna.
6. Repeat the above procedure for all mobile remote sites.
The next step will be to set up the VMS to push the routes to the TDM
outbounds. This step is necessary if there is more than one satellite–or satellite
beam–being used in the network, or if multiple TDM outbounds are being used
and the mobile sites will transition between them.
It will no longer be necessary to put static routes in the TDM modems. If any
static routes exist, either telnet/console into the box(es) or use the Parameter
Editor from the VMS and delete them. The only routes left in the TDM
outbounds should be the Default Gateway to the edge router and any non-
mobile remotes in the network (if desired, these routes can also be entered as
dynamic VMS routes).
7. Right-click on the Hub modem unit that represents the first TDM outbound
and select the Properties page.
8. Click Routes. The Routes window will open (figure 3-57).
Right-click in the window and select Insert.
A new route is added to the Route List. The operator can then edit the route
settings, including the Network address, the Mask, the Gateway, and the
Interface (next hop). For remotes, select Satellite.
