Setup and Operation
At power-up, the OM 1000 operating parameters are set either by data stored internally in flash
memory or by data downloaded from a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) server on the headend LAN.
The method used depends on your system configuration.
After you set the initial operating parameters, you can modify the configuration by:
Entering new parameter settings at the OM 1000 front panel
Forcing a reboot to download a new configuration from the BOOTP server
Sending commands from a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) network
manager
This section provides information to help you configure the OM 1000 from the front-panel
controls. For information on downloading data from a BOOTP server, refer to Appendix C,
"Initialization Information."
Using the Front-Panel Interface
The OM 1000 front-panel interface includes an LCD and a set of cursor control keys that enable
you to set and change operating parameters. The LCD provides a series of menus showing
specific OM 1000 parameter settings. The menus provide:
Display-only information that you cannot select or change
Parameter settings that you can select and modify
Navigational aids that enable access to other menus
Figure 4-1 illustrates a typical display. The menu name, OAM&P, is display-only; the SUBNET
and IP options are changeable parameters.
