EtherWave - WMR
5.0 Network Topologies
5.3 Peer-to-Peer (P2P)
P2P mode is used for communications between pairings of remote
modems,
e.g. Remote 20 can exchange data with (only) Remote 30,
Remote 21 can exchange data with (only) Remote 35, etc.
The Master will resend the data incoming to it from both Remotes to
both/all Remotes; one Remote’s data has a Destination Unit being
the other Remote and vice versa.
Example 5.3.1
A device located at a pump station must communicate bi-
directionally with another device at a water tank. The MASTER
EtherWave-WMR must reside in an office at a separate location.
All EtherWave-WMR within a particular network must be configured
to have the same Network Type.
Image 5G: P2P Example 5.3.1: Master
A P2P network requires a
Master modem.
The data being transmitted
from one Remote to another
in P2P mode is transferred
via the Master.
