6.2.22.21
Secondary M&C VLAN ID
Range
-1 to 4095 (default is -1 disabled).
Description:
This secondary M&C VLAN is only used when migrating a VLAN ID to a
different number within a system. The idea is to use the desired VLAN ID
as the main VLAN ID. The secondary one becomes the original old VLAN
ID to keep the remote M&C system connected while the remotes are
being changed over. More details on achieving this can be obtained
through customer support for your particular scenario.
6.2.22.22
M&C VLAN CIR / M&C VLAN BIR
With the IP processing card installed as standard, these options no longer effect the M&C
VLAN and should be ignored. To prevent the modem traffic choking the M&C VLAN traffic,
it is advisable to use traffic shaping and apply QoS rules. Setting the traffic BIR percentages
to 98% or lower gives the M&C VLAN at least 2% of the throughput to maintain system
control.
6.2.22.23
sFlow collector
Default
0.0.0.0
Address:
Description:
sFlow® is an industry standard technology for monitoring high speed
switched networks. It gives complete visibility into the use of networks
enabling performance optimization, accounting/billing for usage and the
data can be used as a defence against security threats. The address of
the sFlow collector should be on the M&C subnet.
6.2.22.24
OpenFlow Controller
Default
0.0.0.0
Address:
Description:
OpenFlow is a protocol used in Software Defined Networks for
communication between a network device and a controller server. The
controller server then determines which packets flow between the
terrestrial network and over satellite. The controller address, which
should be on the M&C subnet, is entered here. OpenFlow 1.0 is
supported.
