IP ADDRESS MANAGEMENT
In an Apollo/Artemis/Summa/Hydra2
system, each hardware element is
allocated a unique IP address, be it a
Router card, Control Processor, or an
I/O box.
IP addresses follow the format of:
AAA.BBB.XXX.YYY.
AAA is given a value unique to the
customer/owner of the system.
BBB is given a value unique to each core
owned by a customer.
AAA.BBB is set by the configuration of
the active Control Processor card within
a core. Physically changing a Control
Processor could change the IP address
of all hardware associated with that rack,
including the I/O boxes connected to it
if the replacement card is not correctly
configured.
XXX.YYY is automatically set for each
element within and connected to the
core, including rack cards, control surface
elements and I/O boxes, but not other
cores, or items connected via other cores.
XXX is set by the type of hardware,
YYY is set by the location / port that the
hardware is connected to.
By maintaining this format of IP allocation,
it ensures that systems can be connected
together without address conflicts, as
shown in Figure 1.
ConfirmingIPs
To confirm the IP addresses associated
with a processing rack, login to the
PC associated with that rack with
administrator privileges and launch the
Calrec Program Updater application.
On startup, the Program Updater scans
all the hardware it can find and lists it. The
first hardware element detected by the
program updater is the configuration PC
itself, followed by the Control Processor
and then the remaining hardware
associated with that core. All hardware
listed is part of the same system and will
have the same number for the first two
bytes, AAA.BBB.
Another system owned by the same
customer will have the same first byte,
AAA but a different second byte BBB.
FIGURE1 - MULTI-CORE IP’S
A system owned by a different customer
will have a different first byte AAA, but
may have the same second byte BBB.
ChangingIPs
The first two bytes of the IP address are
set by the Master Control Processor.
Changing the IP requires logging in to
the card’s Linux environment and editing
a configuration file. This should only be
carried out by competent technicians.
Please contact our Customer Support
team for guidance on IP address changing
if required.
