15.3.1 10/100BaseT Ethernet Interface

In Router Mode operation, the 10/100BaseT Ethernet Interface is used for routing IP
traffic to be transmitted over the satellite or routed to another device on the local LAN. In
easyConnect™ Mode, the Ethernet Interface is used to forward IP and non-IP traffic over
the satellite. Local or remote management of all CDM-570/570L and IP Module
functions is also available via Telnet, HTTP, or SNMP.

15.3.3 Remote softwar e/firmware upgrade via FTP

The IP Module uses ‘flash memory’ technology internally, and new firmwar e can be
uploaded to or from an external PC by FTP. This makes software upgrading very simple,
and updates can now be sent via the Internet, E-mail, or on disk. The upgrade can be
performed without opening the unit or having to be in the same physical location.
