F.1

Quick-Start Guide Introduction

This appendix serves to guide the user through the steps needed to pass IP traffic within minutes
of initial installation and setup (i.e., starting from factory default settings), using a pair of CDM-
570/570L modems equipped with the optional IP Module Ethernet Interface. These modems are
generically referred to through the remainder of this appendix as the CDM-IP. This appendix
assumes operator familiarity with configuration of the base modem.
