CHAPTER 4
System Configuration
The Selenio ™ BNP is configurable through a Java-based graphical user interface (GUI) available
through a standard Web browser, or through SNMP using standard network management applications.
The easy-to-use interface offers a variety of features that simplify the set-up and operation of the BNP,
including program and transport level drag and drop grooming; simultaneous bit rate analysis of input
and output transport streams and programs; alarms and logs window; scheduled dynamic grooming
with start/end time and calendar entry; redundancy configuration; and full configurability of ASI and
Gigabit Ethernet ports.
This chapter describes how to configure the BNP using the BNP Element Manager. You can also use the
BNP Element Manager to define and manage network processing as described in
"Grooming and PSIP,"
and Events."
