8.1. Manual Mode
is section contains step-by-step instructions on configuring a Coactive Router-LL and a
GRouter device in manual mode to tunnel 709.1 packets between each other over IP.
• Using the web configuration pages for the GRouter and the serial menu for the Router-LL, set
up IP addresses, subnet masks, and IP gateway addresses for the two routers. Connect the
routers to the same IP network. Using a PC attached to the network, verify that the routers can
be pinged. Consult with the network administrator to procure the IP address, subnet mask,
and gateway address, if not already known.
• Set both routers to manual mode. is is done on the Router Setup Page for the GRouter, and
through the Basic Setup page on the Router-LL's Web Interface .
• Using the appropriate web pages on each router, add each router’s IP address and
communications port number (the default port is 1628) into the other router’s channel list. Set
the addressing type to unicast or multicast in the channel details menu.
• Once steps 1–3 have been completed, the routers will be able to communicate with each other
over the IP network. is can be verified by pressing the service pin on one of the routers and
checking the Diagnostics or Statistics Page on the other router for packets received.
• For the routers to tunnel traffic, the 709.1 interfaces must be set up. is can be done on the
709 Setup Page or with a network management tool such as LonMaker. Refer to the
management tool's documentation on commissioning routers.
