Figure 3.5.3a - Dual Network Device Example
In this example,
the controller is tasked with communicating to two different acquisition devices,
a modem and beacon receiver. Both devices communicate using an IPv4 scheme. Both settable
controller interfaces must be used at this point, one for each device. The Eth1:0 Customer
Network interface will be set to communicate to the modem and the Eth1:1 Customer Network
interface will be set to communicate to the beacon receiver. Though each device is on a different
IP network by setting both interfaces the controller will be able to communicate to both devices
simultaneously.
