Configuring the IP interface and management mode
The IP interface allows users to connect to the PTP 800 web interface, either from a locally
connected computer or from a management network.
Before setting Management Mode to ‘Out-of-Band’ or ‘In-Band’, configure the local and
remote CMUs to have different IP addresses, otherwise the management agent will not
be able to distinguish the two CMUs.
Similarly for a 1+1 Hot Standby link, configure all four CMUs to have different IP
addresses so that the active and inactive units may be distinguished as well as the local
and remote CMUs.
Forcing Ethernet configuration is a last resort. Select this option only when problems are
experienced with auto-negotiation.
To configure the Ethernet link to run at a fixed speed and duplex, leave Ethernet Auto
Negotiation set to ‘Enabled’ and set Auto Neg Advertisement to the required speed.
To configure the IP interface, proceed as follows:
1

6

Confirm LAN configuration
page is displayed (
7
Select

.
If the IP address is updated, then selecting
Submit Updated System Configuration
will change the IP address and communication between the management PC and the
CMU will be terminated. To continue configuration, re-connect to the new IP address as
described in
Reconnecting to the management PC
. In case of error see
