TWO MODES OF COMMUNICATION

There are two modes of communication with the NMP-500: an HTTP web interface and a Telnet

advanced command line interface. This document focuses on the web interface only. Web-based

interface is executed using the HTTP protocol.

To start communicating with the NMP-500, follow the step-by-step instructions in the section

called SETTING UP THE NMP-500 in this guide.

TWO MODES OF OPERATION

STANDALONE

This setup allows the NMP-500 to act as an independent network device used to control a Plasma

Display Panel (PDP) or a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for digital signage or narrowcasting applications.

TAS MANAGED

You can purchase TAS separately through Tivella (www.tivella.com or a Tivella dealer/reseller). A

TAS server should be used to configure and manage multiple NMP-500s remotely. TAS provides

centralized scheduling of video content presentation on multiple NMP-500s, as well as management

and seamless operation of a Cisco®ACNS Content Distribution Networking infrastructure if one is

installed. This configuration greatly reduces maintenance overhead, when TAS and the NMP-500 are

connected to the network (LAN/WAN) with the TAS acting as a manager for multiple NMP-500s.
