Before starting to use these configuration
notes, complete the following table to make sure you have the required information
to complete the different steps.

There are four Network Interfaces created by default on the Mediatrix unit: Uplink, Lan
1, UplinkV6, and Rescue.
- The Uplink
network interface
defines the uplink information required by the Mediatrix unit to properly connect to the
WAN. (By default eth1 for all platforms, except for the 4102 which is WAN . By default,
this interface uses the IpDhcp (IPv4 DHCP)
connection type. If you are using only one Network Interface, you must use Uplink
.
- The Lan1
network interface
defines the information required by the Mediatrix unit to properly connect to the LAN.(By
default eth2-5 for all platforms, except for the 4102 which is LAN) By default, the
Lan1
Network Interface uses
the IpStatic (IPv4 Static)
connection type.
The Lan1
network interface can
only be added on units with 2 network ports.
- The Rescue
network interface,
is used to display the Rescue
Management Interface when a partial reset of the unit is performed. By default, the
Rescue
network interface
- is disabled and automatically enabled when a partial reset is performed.
- uses the
IpStatic (IPv4 Static)
or the
Ip6Static (IPv6 Static)
addresses.
The Rescue
Network
Interface cannot be deleted. Refer to the
Technical Bulletin - Performing a Partial Reset
document published on the Media5 documentation portal
https://documentation.media5corp.com/
- The
network interface
defines the IPv6 uplink information required by the Mediatrix unit to properly connect to
the WAN. By default, this interface uses the IP6autoConf (IPv6
Auto-Conf)
configuration
mode.
It is possible to create up to 48 Network Interfaces.

The computer IP address must be in the same TCP/IP network as the Mediatrix
unit.
Context
For better performances, it is recommended to use the latest available version of
Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox.
-
In your Web browser, enter the IP address at which the Web interface of your Mediatrix unit can be reached.
- If your network has an IPv4 DHCP server, connect the primary Ethernet
port of the Mediatrix unit to the network (ETH1 port), use the provided DHCP
server IP address.
- You can also connect your computer to the secondary Ethernet port of the
Mediatrix unit (ETH2), use the 192.168.0.10 IP address. however, the
computer must also own an IP address in the 192.168.0.0/24 network.

Mediatrix units are supplied with an exhaustive set of documentation.
Mediatrix user documentation is available on the
Documentation
Portal
at http://documentation.media5corp.com
Several types of documents were created to clearly present the information you are looking for.
Our documentation includes:
- Release notes
: Generated at each GA release, this document includes the known and
solved issues of the software. It also outlines the changes and the new features the release
includes.
- Configuration notes
: These documents are created to facilitate the configuration of a
specific use case. They address a configuration aspect we consider that most users will need to
perform. However, in some cases, a configuration note is created after receiving a question
from a customer. They provide standard step-by-step procedures detailing the values of the
parameters to use. They provide a means of validation and present some conceptual information.
The configuration notes are specifically created to guide the user through an aspect of the
configuration.
- Technical bulletins
: These documents are created to facilitate the configuration of a
specific technical action, such as performing a firmware upgrade.
- Hardware installation guide
: They provide the detailed procedure on how to safely and
adequately install the unit. It provides information on card installation, cable connections,
and how to access for the first time the Management interface.
- User guide
: The user guide explains how to customise to your needs the configuration
of the unit. Although this document is task oriented, it provides conceptual information to
help the user understand the purpose and impact of each task. The User Guide will provide
information such as where and how TR-069 can be configured in the Management Interface,
how to set firewalls, or how to use the CLI to configure parameters that are not available in
the Management Interface.
- Reference guide
: This exhaustive document has been created for advanced users. It
includes a description of all the parameters used by all the services of the Mediatrix units.
You will find, for example, scripts to configure a specific parameter, notification messages
sent by a service, or an action description used to create Rulesets. This document includes
reference information such as a dictionary, and it does not include any step-by-step
procedures.
