  • Page 7: Overview

    1. Overview 1.1. Introduction e GRouter (GR4) router supports two open standard protocols, namely ANSI/EIA 709.1 and ANSI/EIA 852. Both the ANSI/EIA 709.1 and ANSI/EIA 852 are de ned by the Consumer Electronics Association Technology & Standards R7.1 HCS1 Subcommittee. For more details see .
  • Page 8 Fig.1.1: Network Layers A network connector is a device that joins different parts of a network. Connectors have a speci c name that is dependent on the layer at which the connector operates. For example a router operates at the network layer and a gateway at the application layer. Because higher layers of the protocol do not have access to some of the information stripped away by lower layers, network connectors operating at different layers have different capabilities.

    Fig.1.3: CN to IP Router/Gateway Architecture e GRouter device also employs a web server for con guration purposes. (See Figure 2.4) Fig.1.4: GRouter 3 Architecture 1.2. Con guration Parameters e information required for successful ANSI/EIA 709.1 transport can be broken up into the following two categories: device parameters and channel parameters.

  • Page 10: Modes Of Operation

    A channel, then, is de ned as a group of routers that all send information to each other. e lines of communication are open in both directions and to all members—a complete mesh of connections. Typically, channels are managed through the use of a con guration server (called Normal mode see below).
