Connecting to network
Configuration Utility
You can connect the 200M Powerline AV to Fast Ethernet Adapter
directly to the PC’s network adapter, switch, or any other Ethernet
enabled device.
Note: The Ethernet port on the Adapter supports 10/100M
Auto-MDI/MDIX function, you can use a straight-through or a
crossover Ethernet cable when connecting to another Ethernet enabled
device.)
The Powerline AV Utility for Windows OS enables the users to identify
TPL-302E devices on the power line network, measures data rate
performance, ensures privacy and performs diagnostics by setting user
defined secure power line networks.
Install Configuration Utility
Insert the Powerline AV utility CD into your CD-ROM drive and the
Auto-run program will appear. Alternatively this can also be done
manually by double clicking the autorun.exe file on the CD.
Click the “Install Software” on the menu to install the Powerline AV
Utility, the install wizard will begin the software installation. Follow the
install wizard instructions completed the Powerline AV Utility install.

Using the Powerline AV Utility
To start the Powerline AV Utility, double click the icon on the
desktop, the Configuration Utility will be executed.
The Configuration Utility was divided into four functions, Device
Information, Network Information, QoS, Security, Upgrade and About,
for details instruction, follow the below section.
Device Information
The Device Information screen shows the device information including
the MAC address, Firmware Version and the connected TPL-302E
device.
Network Information
The Network Information screen shows all devices that were on the
power line network are listed here. Devices that are active on the current
logical network will show a transfer rate and receiver rate.

QoS
List View
QoS requirements are different for various data types such as streaming
video or music, voice and raw data. To provide higher QoS for streaming
data, priority levels can be set u sing tags at the be ginning of dat a frames.
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) 802.1p priority tags on Ethernet
frames are used to specify 8 (0 – 7) levels of ‘user priority’.
The 200M Powerline AV to Fast Ethernet Adapter allows 4 levels of
Channel Access Priority (CAP (0 – 3)). Therefore, the 8 levels of VLAN
Ethernet tags must be mapped to the 4 levels of CAP priority, where CAP
3 is the highest priority and CAP 0 is the lowest. CAP 3 priority might be
used for voice and network management frames, CAP 2 is used for
streaming video and music while CAP 1 and CAP 0 are used for data.
Mapping VLAN tags or TOS bits to CAP levels is easily done using the
VLAN Priority Mapping function on the QoS tab window.
The QoS tab includes two list views to provide simple channel access
priority (CAP) classification for individual MAC addresses and IP Ports.
There is a collective limit of eight across both lists. No delimiters, colons,
or dashes are allowed in the MAC address format.
Priority Mapping
The ‘Priority Mapping’ group contains both VLAN and TOS Bit
mapping capability. When selected, packets matching the VLAN or TOS
Bit priority will be assigned the Powerline contention priority (Channel
Access Priority, CAP) as set in the corresponding dropdown box. If a
packet has both VLAN and TOS in it, VLAN will override TOS.
Default CAP
The ‘Default CAP’ group allows for default priority mapping of packets
that do not have a VLAN or TOS bit. Settings are available for Unicast
(directed to a host).
• IGMP - (default CAP 3) - sets the channel access priority for IGMP
frames - these are the group management frames, not the stream data
• Unicast - (default CAP 1) - sets the default channel access priority
for unicast frames not matching any other classification or mapping.
Device Selection
Select the device from the drop down list and configure the device
selected.
10
• IGMP managed Multicast Stream (default CAP 2) - sets the default
channel access priority for stream data belonging to a snooped IGMP
multicast group.
• Multicas t/Broadcast - sets the default CAP1 for multicast fr ames not
in a snooped group and for broadcast frames.
