TANDBERG MCU 4500, MSE 8510 manual Configuring network settings. Selecting Port B

In this section you can control how IP packets should be directed out of the MCU. You should only change this configuration if you have a good understanding of the topology of the network(s) to which the MCU is connected.

Configuration of routes is divided into two sections: addition of new routes, and the display and removal of existing routes.

To add a new route, first enter the details using the table below for reference. When you are satisfied with the details
