Hitron CGNVM User's Guide
Each MoCA network has a Network Coordinator (NC)
which acts as a manager for all the other devices on the
cable network.
By default, the NC is chosen from the pool of MoCA
devices based on its suitability (signal strength,
etc.) To base NC status on merit, or if you have
specified another device as "preferred" and do not
want the CGNVM to compete with it, select Auto-
negotiated.
When one device is set to be the "preferred" NC, it
will be the NC whenever it is available on the
network (if multiple devices are "preferred", the
most suitable one will be chosen). Select
Preferred to add the CGNVM to the preferred
group.
Select Enabled to turn MoCA security on. Only MoCA
devices configured to use the Password you define
can access the network.
Select Disabled to turn MoCA security off. Any MoCA
device can access the network.
When MoCA Security is Enabled, enter the password
you want to use on the MoCA in this field. Only MoCA
devices configured to use this password can access the
network.
