In the Composer project, MK8000 and MM8000 should be configured to include the
new CDI-WAN driver NS8210, which is one of the standard drivers available.
Note: NS8210 actually replaces the NK8210 router that used to be installed with
LMSmodular software.
Limitations
MK8000 and MM8000 cannot be connected to NK822x MP2.1 over serial line. A
technical difficulty in the configuration tool currently causes this limitation, which will
soon be removed.
Serial-based solutions for MK8000 MP1.3 and MM8000 MP2.3 can be realised using
CDI.WAN MP1.1 (R1.31) product and tools. See DMS8000 Connectivity Guide
(007083) for more information.
CDI-WAN MP2.1 can provide support for up to 50 networked NK822x’s. It is planned
to remove this limitation in next market packages.
2.3 New software tools
In comparison with MP1.1 (R1.31) software, MP2.1 has partially replaced the tools.
