System Considerations

61 68-12286-110

• For ASTRO® 25 7.13 systems, the PCs running MCN Server 8000 and ClientRCD software

may be installed only at the following locations:

Zone Core (Not on NM Subnet – no Multicast support)

K-Core

Collocated Vortex / NM Dispatch Site in Zore Core

Note: A Vortex /NM Dispatch Site may not be able to communicate with all the

comparators at other sites. Only Zone Core or K-Core or collocated Vortex / NM

Dispatch Site in Zore Core is available to see all the comparators.

• For systems not running in an official MSI RNI, some of the above limitations may not apply,

but the non ASTRO®-specific considerations will apply.

HIB-IP Considerations

• Legacy HIB-IP modules (versions below 400) are not intended for operation across an Astro®

25 7x Radio Network Infrastructure (RNI).

• HIB-IP 8000 modules (HIB-IP modules version 400 and up) support special UDP Ports

required to run across an Astro® 25 7.13 RNI.

• For ASTRO® 25 7.13 systems, HIB-IP modules may be installed only in the following

locations:

Simulcast IP Prime Sites

Conventional Hub (C-Sub Hub) Sites

Default Software Settings

• The defaults in the MCN Server 8000 and the MCN Client are configured to run in an

ASTRO® 25 7.12 system and higher.

• The default UDP ports for the Server and Client are set according to Motorola's IP plan (per

specific ASTRO® 25 release).

• The default Multicast IP address for the MCN Server 8000 software is configured for:

MCN Server #1 in Zone 1 at the Main Prime site.

If your system configuration is different, please refer to the Motorola IP Plan (per specific

ASTRO® 25 release) for the proper Multicast IP address.

Windows Accounts

operation.. The programs need the following rights::
