H.3.5 Remote Data Traffic Handling
1 Remote Modem
2 Remote LAN Data Switches
3 Remote Router
4 Other Devices
In BPM Mode, remote operation requires no special configuration – remote role is the same for
either point-to-point or point-to-multipoint topologies.
As Figure H-9 shows:
•
NP Ethernet ports P1 and P2, with internal Data WAN Port 'A', form the red switch group
referred to as Bridge-Group1;
•
NP Ethernet ports P3 and P4, with internal Management WAN Port 'B', form the blue
switch group referred to as Bridge-Group2;
•
The SLM-5650A Base Modem 'J5 Ethernet' port, with internal VS WAN Port 'C', forms
the green switch group referred to as Router-Group.
•
Observe the following rules with this configuration:
•
NP Interface ports P1, P3, and Base Modem Ethernet Port J5 are the primary ports.
•
NP Interface ports P2 and P4 are the secondary ports.
Note that, while the remote LAN switches shown in Figure H-9 are included to illustrate how third
party Layer2 switches can be used, their use is not mandatory.
