o Managed Switch – Primarily intended for operation in a point-to-point topology,
Managed Switch Mode is Comtech's IP modem intelligent networking solution. It allows
a link to be set up with minimal configuration (no specific routes need to be configured).
When the optional IP Packet Processor is either not installed or is installed but
Disabled, Managed Switch Mode provides support for Layer 2 QoS, and Dedicated
Management Port or VLAN.
When you install and enable the optional IP Packet Processor, advanced features such
as Layer 3 (Advanced) QoS, Header and Payload Compression, Streamline Encapsulation
(SLE), and Encryption are available. Most are supported only under "Admin" user access.
