CDM-570/570L Full MIB OOB M&C
The CDM-570/570L is supported as an OOB device operating without IP option
card. This new device driver provides the monitoring and control of standard
base modem control within and IP overlay network through SNMP.
Satellite Advanced Switching (Remote Roaming)
This new remote roaming feature provides advanced switching per remote to
any given satellite. The advanced carrier switching from beam-to-beam in
roaming applications allows for variable carrier characteristics between satel-
lites per remote, whereby roaming from one satellite to another with different
specifications, e.g. modulation, FEC Rate...
Generic VMS Installer
Changed installation authorization to remove serial number check. During the
build authorization of VMS installation the packaging generation will not
require serialization providing generic distributed install builds. Only key file
updates (.vku) will be required to install latest versions of VMS as new or
updates. Latest build versions will display on both Server and Client About
Menus. This simplifies the distribution of release versions of VMS.
VNO Basic User Authorization
Supported in this release, the VNO server supports a new feature called Basic
User Authentication. This feature provides a simple form of user access control
to VNO resources and a limited set of privilege levels for specific VNO opera-
tions. It allows network operators to configure their VNO interface to expose a
subset of all the networks on a per user basis. Users, passwords, and privilege
levels are stored in VNO WS service.
Antenna Mesh Compensation Factor
This feature applies a power delta between any mesh remote sites. The hub is
used as the reference value when calculating a power delta value between
remote's with smaller antennas. This is accomplished through comparing its
gain opposed to the gain differences between remotes. If multiple remotes are
involved in a SHOD connection the VMS uses the lowest remote gain value for
compensation control.
ToS Value Control for Management Messages
The management control messages can be stamped with a Type of Service
(ToS) value providing for priority singling control through network routers.
This priority control value increases reliability of management messages.
