Initial Configuration And Setup - LG niagara4 MultiSITE Edge 10 User Manual

Connecting to a JACE
If a JACE is going to be incorporated into the MS-E10 device network, the devices can be connected to either the primary or
secondary port of the JACE. Connecting the MS-E10 devices to the primary port of the JACE puts the MS-E10 devices on the
same logical network as the JACE, sharing the same IP address range. In this arrangement, both the JACE and MS-E10 devices
are directly reachable from the same network segment, and Workbench commissioning can be used to setup and manage all the
devices.
It is also possible to connect the MS-E10 devices to the secondary port of the JACE. In this arrangement, the network of JACEs
becomes a private network, isolated from the network to which the primary port of the JACE is connected. When connected to
the secondary port, the JACEs are not directly reachable from the main network, and Niagara Network provisioning running on
the JACE station must be used to setup and manage the controllers.
Note that prior to connecting JACEs to the secondary port of the JACE, you must either preconfigure the devices with static IP
addresses, or enable the DHCP server on the JACE.

Initial configuration and setup

Depending on the chosen network configuration, you will be able to setup the device with commissioning, provisioning, or some
combination of both. The following table summarizes which tools to use, based on the network configuration.
