2.3.2 Stages of <strong>NSG</strong> <strong>9000</strong>-<strong>6G</strong> Configuration<br />
Configuring the <strong>NSG</strong> <strong>9000</strong>-<strong>6G</strong> model includes the following stages:<br />
• Defining/viewing Platform Parameters, a one time configuration. During this stage, define<br />
Ethernet 1&2 ports, GbE input ports and view platform parameters such as status of slots,<br />
software version, chassis serial number, and more. You can also set general device<br />
parameters such as:<br />
Device security parameters (device password)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
SNMP traps<br />
NTP<br />
Advanced network options - routing table and Access Control list<br />
• Defining QAM-RF module parameters - during this stage define the following:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Global RF and QAMs parameters<br />
RF port parameters<br />
QAMs parameters<br />
View a summary of general attributes<br />
• Licensing - during this stage, view the licenses installed on the <strong>NSG</strong> device, install new<br />
licenses if needed, and assign licenses to QAM channels.<br />
• Applications - during this stage, define the parameters of the required application. The<br />
available applications are as follows:<br />
VOD<br />
Broadcast<br />
M-CMTS<br />
D2E<br />
• CAS - in case CAS is required, define whether DVB scrambling or Privacy Mode<br />
scrambling is required and set the attributes as required.<br />
2.3.2.1 Before you Begin<br />
Before you start configuring and provisioning the device, pay attention to the following:<br />
• Fields that are for viewing only, are greyed out.<br />
• To change parameter values, click in the field and type the required values. Once you<br />
click away from the field, the web client interface is updated and displays the new<br />
parameters. However, the parameters are not sent to the device.<br />
• To apply changes to fields marked with this icon , you should reset the device.<br />
