normally filter multicast traffic.
If the Working Mode is easyConnect and multicast traffic is intended to
pass across a pair of modems, this option must be enabled on both modems.

The Header Compression Refresh Rates are configured from the Administration page.

The Header Compression Refresh Rates determines how many compressed header packets
will be sent before a single full header packet is sent. Some compressed header traffic could
be lost during deteriorated satellite link conditions. Sending a full header packet will allow
the return of the traffic stream. Refresh rates from 1 to 600 can be individually selected for
UDP/RTP1, UDP and all other IP headers. The Refresh Rate can be decreased for poor
satellite link conditions or increased to further reduce overhead.
easyConnect mode will automatically use Header Compression (even if Header

Multicast Option allows multicast to be either transmitted or received
Compression option has not been purchased). Because of this, some of the initial
traffic sent between two devices will not be received over the satellite until a full
Header is transmitted. For example, the default Header Compression Refresh
Rate is 50 packets. If a ping is sent over the satellite it will time out until the full
Header packet is sent. The Header Compression Refresh Rate on the
Administration Menu can be reduced to minimize the amount of traffic lost when
traffic is first sent between two devices. Once communication between two
devices has been established, both CDM-IP modems will be able to receive all
traffic, unless one CDM-IP is power cycled or reset.
