Chapter 5 Conditional Access System (CAS) Defining DVB Scrambling Parameters Priority - to allow redundancy, set priority by indicating the primary and secondary ECMG of the same SuperCasID. In case of ECMGs with the same SuperCasID, NSG 9000 always tries to connect first to the ECMG with the highest priority. Assign priority from 1- 10 with 1 as the highest priority. SuperCasID (Hex) - A 32-bit hexadecimal number that consists of the 16-bit CA vendor ID and an additional 16-bit number that distinguishes one ECM generator from another for the same CAS vendor. The super CAS ID determines which access criteria is coupled with each ECMG. The CAS vendor provides this value. Protocol Revision - Specifies the CAS mode of operation. Select Revision 1, 2 or 3. IP Address - The IP address of the ECMG. The CAS vendor provides this value. Port - The number (in decimal format) of the TCP port used to connect the ECMG. The CAS vendor provides this value. Channel ID - indicates the channel of communication between the NSG and the ECMG. Status - Indicates the state of the connection: Connected - The ECMG and NSG are communicating. Disconnected - No communication is taking place at the moment. 5.3.5 Viewing CAS Status 5.3.5.1 Viewing the SCG Parameters 1. Select Applications > CAS > SCGs tab. The SCG page appears. The following information is listed: Number of SCGs - indicates the number of listed SCGs. SCG ID - The ID number of the SCG. CP Number - A running counter of the number of Crypto Periods. It indicates the number of times the ECM has been changed for this stream. TS ID/QAM Index- The stream that carries the service to be encrypted as sent by the EIS. Service ID - The ID of the program/service being scrambled using the specific SCG. State - Indicates the status of the service as follows: Scrambling - Indicates that the service is encrypted. Clear - Indicates that scrambling failed. Access Criteria - the access criteria as provided by the vendor. 2. Click Refresh to update the information in the SCG table. 5.3.5.2 Viewing ECM Parameters The Entitlement Control Message (ECM) page provides information about the ECM stream that is sent to the NSG and is added to the TS. © 2012 Harmonic Inc. 106 NSG 9000-6G, Version 2.7, Rev B

Chapter 5 Conditional Access System (CAS) Defining Privacy Mode Scrambling Parameters 1. Select Applications > CAS > ECMs tab. The ECM page appears and you can view the following information: Number of ECMs - indicates the number of listed ECMs. Stream ID - The ID number of the stream. ECM ID - The ID of the ECM as sent by the EIS. SuperCasID - Identifies the ECMG that encrypts this program. This number is provided by the CAS vendor. SCG ID - The ID of the SCG that requested the ECM stream. 2. Click Refresh to update the information. 5.4 Defining Privacy Mode Scrambling Parameters 1. Select Applications > CAS > Privacy Mode Settings section. 2. Open the Stream Processing on ECM Expiration list and select either of the following: Scramble with Last ECM - All NSGs of the VODS should be updated with the new ECM. Don’t Scramble - do not scramble the stream. TIP: Once provisioning/multiplexing is complete, enable the RF ports.
