What is relative and absolute addressing?
If you want to connect with TMA to a Telindus device, you have to specify the address of the device in
the
Connect… window. Refer to 4 - Managing the Telindus 1031 Router on page 33 .
There are two different address types: relative and absolute. The following table explains the difference
between these address types:
Type Description
relative This type of addressing is meant for a network topology where the Telindus
devices are connected in-line on management level. I.e. with extended manage-
ment connections between two Telindus devices. An extended management con-
nection is realised with a crossed cable between the control connectors of two
Telindus devices.
To enable relative addressing, no address has to be specified in the Telindus
device.
absolute This type of addressing is meant for a network topology where the Telindus
devices are not connected in-line on management level. I.e. when there is a digital
multipoint device present.
To enable absolute addressing, an address has to be specified in the Telindus
device. Do this with the
cms2Address attribute.
