Definition of IP Addresses
An IP Address is a required setting in order to allow data communication in an Ethernet net-
work. If the devices are integrated in a plant network, the local network administrator must
be consulted to find correct settings.
The Subnet Mask defines the size of the network. In typical applications the subnet mask is
as per default settings. However, the local network administrator must be consulted, if other
IP addresses than the default settings apply.
The Broadcast Address is required for the Digital Gateway to send data to other devices.
Since the Digital Gateway does not know which IP address is used by the other devices, data
is sent as broadcast messages. The broadcast address is calculated automatically by MNavi-
gate.
The Default Gateway is an address for a network gateway, if the switchgear control network
is connected to a plant network. The gateway is not part of the MNS scope. If a gateway is
used, the local network administrator is to be consulted for correct settings.
If it is not possible to communicate to the Digital Gateway, please refer to the trouble
shooting section in this document or the Digital Gateway section in the MNavigate
