When a multipoint modem has permission to transmit, it should assert RTS and
wait for the modem to respond by asserting CTS (clear-to-send).
In multipoint mode the RF transmitter will be unmuted when RTS is asserted
and, after delay to allow the link to be established, CTS will be asserted to
indicate it is okay to send data. The transmitter will be muted when RTS is
negated.
Arbitration among the multipoint modems for access to the link is a higher level
network function and the responsibility of the customer.
Multipoint mode does not affect the operation of the receiver. The receiver is on
whether or not the multipoint modems is transmitting and all multipoint modems
may receive simultaneously.
4.2.21 mute
Mute the RF output
Usage: mute
[<0|1|n|y|off|on>]
Authorization: Operator RO; Administrator RW
Display or set the mute state.
With no argument, displays the current mute setting. With an argument of 0, n, or
off sets the mute to “off” (enables RF output). With an argument of 1, y, or on
sets the mute to “on” (disables RF output).
4.2.22 netconfig
Network Configuration Summary
Usage: netconfig
Authorization: Operator RO; Administrator RO
Display the current network configuration summary.
4.2.23 netmask
Network Mask
Usage: netmask [<0|1>] [nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn]
Authorization: Operator RO; Administrator RW
With no value specified, display the current network mask. Otherwise set the
network mast to the specified value. The change will take effect when the system
is restarted.
The IP address consist of a “network” portion and a “host” portion. The network
mask defines how much of the address is used for each one. A typical value for
the network mask is 255.255.255.0.
If DHCP is enabled, this setting is ignored. The value reported here DOES NOT
represent the network mask established by the DHCP server.
Note: the 0/1 refers to the RMS Ethernet port (0) or the payload Ethernet port (1).
Although there is a network mask setting for the payload port, it is not used. The
default port is 0, however, so entering a 0 or 1 is unnecessary and is only
documented for the sake of completeness.
