Chapter 7. ETHERNET
INTERFACE OPERATION
7.1 Overview
Operation of the Ethernet Interface is available when you connect a user-
supplied, Windows-based PC to the LBC-4000 rear panel '10/100 ETHERNET'
100BaseTX RJ-45 port.
The LBC-4000 L-Band Up/Down Converter System, as initially released,
does not feature a rear panel '10/100 ETHERNET' port. Only current
production units offer Ethernet Interface operation. See Chapter 4.
FRONT AND REAR PANEL CONNECTORS for more information.
Three protocols are available for Ethernet remote M&C. Operate these protocols
separately.
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This requires a user-
supplied Network Monitoring System (NMS) and a user-supplied
Management Information Base (MIB) File Browser.
CAUTION
Comtech EF Data recommends use of the Ethernet-based SNMP
interface for advanced users only. All other users are strongly
encouraged to use the HTTP (Web Server) Interface for remote
Monitor and Control (M&C) of the unit.
• Telnet Interface. You may use the serial remote control protocol via this
interface. This requires use of Windows Command-line, or a user-
supplied terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal.
• HTTP Interface. This requires a compatible user-supplied web browser
such as Internet Explorer.
