Overview
This section describes the requisite configuration steps to facilitate
remote access to PoolManager
®
from a local (TCP/IP) network.
45.2
Local network (IP) address
In a TCP/IP network (Ethernet and/or wireless network), each device
has to receive a unique IP address with which it can be accessed.
TCP/IP is the designation of the standardised transmission protocol on
the
Internet
and
on
local
networks
(TCP = Transmission Control Protocol, IP = Internet Protocol).
An IP address consists of two sections:
1.
The first section is the network ID, which is identical for all
devices within the same network.
2.
The second section is the host ID, which is issued only one time
within a network and accesses a specific device.
An IP address always consists of a series of four numbers separated
by a dot. Each number can have a value between 0 and 255
(e.g. 192.168.1.100).
INFO
Network ID and host ID for IP addresses
In most networks, the IP address is broken down as
follows:
•
The first three numbers are the network ID
•
The fourth number is the host ID
There are exceptional cases with different breakdowns,
e.g. two numbers for the network ID and two for the
host ID.
The corresponding breakdown is determined by the
network's subnet mask, which also consists of a series
of four numbers. Each number of a subnet mask
generally has the value of either 255 or 0. 255
designates the corresponding positions as part of the
network ID. That is why the subnet mask has the value
255.255.255.0 on most networks.
Example:
Subnet mask
255.255.255.0
IP address
192.168.1.
100
Network ID
192.168.1
Host ID
100
The most common network IDs for home networks are 192.168.x
(x = 0, 1, 2, ...). The host ID can be in the range of 1...254. The host
IDs 0 and 255 are reserved for special purposes. The host ID 1 is
frequently used for the network router.
Example:
In a network with the network ID 192.168.0, t
available is
