where remote-id is the radio serial number with hyphens between each two digits as in the above
example.
To use a DHCP server to assign IP addresses to remote devices, the ipbase must be set to
255.255.255.255. Set the ipbase as above using the
tcp server ipbase
command:
tcp server ipbase 255.255.255.255<CR>
Assigning Remotes Port Numbers
Remote devices can be identified to applications be either an IP address or a port number of the
IP address of the SNAP. There are two ways to assign port numbers to remote devices: dynamic
assignment by the SNAP and static assignement by the SNAP. If no
ipbase
value is entered
into the SNAP, the remote devices will be identified by dynamically assigned port numbers of
the IP address of the SNAP. As remotes register with the SNAP, the SNAP will dynamically and
randomly assign port numbers. The SNAP will not assign a remote device port numbers reserved
for standard services, such as FTP.
To make a static assignment of a port number to a specific remote device, use the
tcp remote
add
command but do not enter an IP address. For example, to assign port number 5000 to a
remote device with radio serial number 104050, type:
tcp remote add 10-40-50 5000<CR>
If an
ipbase
has previously been entered but remote identification by port number is desired, re-
enter the
ipbase
with a value of 0.0.0.0. This will cause the SNAP to use port numbers to
identify the remotes.
