5.2.3 IP Address
The IP address listed in the factory file is 169.254.1.10. This address must be changed on
installation of the SEC. This IP address is specified by network personnel. Be sure to
uncomment the address (remove the # sign, if there).
5.2.4 Netmask
The value for the Netmask as listed in the factory file is 255.255.0.0. Uncomment (remove
the # sign, if there) and set the Netmask to the appropriate value. The Netmask is specified
by network personnel.
5.2.5 Gateway
The Gateway listed in the factory file is 0.0.0.0. Uncomment (remove the # sign, if there) and
set the Gateway to the appropriate value. The Gateway is specified by network personnel.
5.2.6 Broadcast
In the factory file the Broadcast parameter is set to 1. the options for this parameter are 0
(disabled) or 1 (enabled).
When a Microlok II Peer message is received from the COM port, the destination address in
the message is compared to two internal tables. If the address is found in the tables, the
message is directed to the appropriate Microlok II unit independent of the Broadcast setting.
However, if the Broadcast parameter is set to 0 and the destination address is not found, the
message will discarded. If the Broadcast is set to 1 and the destination address is not found
then the message will be broadcast across the entire local subnet.
5.2.7 Learn
In the factory file the Learn parameter is set to 1. The options for this parameter are 0
(disabled) or 1 (enabled).
This option controls the updating of an internal dynamic routing table. If Learn is enabled (set
to 1) and a message is received from the network, its Peer source address is compared to
addresses in the static and dynamic routing tables. If the source address of the message is
not found in the static routing tables, or if its IP address is different, then the source address
and the IP address it came from are added to the dynamic routing table.
When a message is received from the COM port and it has a Peer destination address in the
dynamic routing table, then it will direct the message to that IP.
If Learn is not enabled (set to 0), the table will not be updated.
