CSS11501: CVDM Install and Usage

[linqksupport]

Hello,

This is probably the least documented or rather undocumented feature I have found! I have managed to scour through ALL the manuals and configuration guides and all I have found out that I can get the image from CCO and then install it using FTP and then unpack it in boot mode. I have gotten this far.

Now how do I use this? I tried accessing it using the IP address of one of the configured circuits and a web-browser but it didn't do anything. Any suggestions? Is it even worth the trouble or should I just configure it using the CLI?

Thanks

There is also a short user guide at

I have never come across a customer using it.  The product is end of support for 3 years now
