YWS in an EtherLoop modem management system
EtherLoop modem management systems have the following requirements and
features:
• client computers connected to EtherLoop modems must have valid IP
addresses for the network on which they reside.
• YesWare’s billing and InterProxy capabilities are not available
• EtherLoop modems can be managed locally (on the same LAN segment)
through modem MAC addresses, or across a LAN/WAN by assigning each
CO and CPE modem a TCP/IP address configuration for the LAN on
which they reside.
Procedure 6-3 on page 6-22 contains the steps to create and provision an
EtherLoop modem management system using modem MAC addresses and a
resident YWS.
Procedure 6-4 on page 6-23 contains the steps to create and provision an
EtherLoop modem management system using TCP/IP and a non-resident
YWS.
