TheBGWhastwoEthernetports‐INTandEXT.
 TheINTportisconnectedtotheinternalnetworkintheheadend’sMasterUnittoprovidethelocal
networkforallthemodulesandtheRemoteUnits.Italsoprovides,viathebuilt‐inswitchintheMaster
Unit,awayoflocallyconfiguringthe network.Itprovidesthewebinterfac e forall theset
tingsofthe
systemaswellasmanyotherfunctions.
 TheEXTportisa“northbound”EthernetportthatallowstheBGWtoconnecttotheInternet,oraWAN/
MANtypeoflargernetwork.Thismeansthatthesystemcanbemonitored and managedremotely.
TheBGWistheuni
tresponsibleforalarmhandlingandremoteforwardofalarmseitherbySMTPmailforwardingor
bySNMPtraps.AMIBfileforyourSNMPsystemisavailablefromBirduponrequestaswellasdocumentation
regardingSNMP.
Ifth
eBGWisre
placedtheRemoteUnitsmaynotshowupimmediately.Thisisduetotheleasetimeontheaddress
theyhave.Eventuallytheywillrequestanewaddressandwhenthisisdonetheywillshowup.
TheBGWca
nalsolaunchVPNtunnelstoaremotesupervisioncenter,theCGW.TheCGWmakesitpossibleto
managemultiplesystemsfromasinglelocation.TheCGWcanhandlealargenumberofsuchtunnels,providinga
