To set up BACnet Broadcast Management Devices (BBMDs)
If your system has multiple routers that reside on different IP subnets, you must set up one router on each IP
subnet as a BACnet/IP Broadcast Management Device (BBMD).
Every subnet with a router must have a BBMD configured in order for broadcasts from controllers on that
subnet to reach the rest of the routers on the network.
NOTE If the i-Vu appliance is on a separate subnet than the rest of the routers, the internal router must be
assigned an IP address and configured as a BBMD.
Use the
BBMD Configuration Tool to:
• Define the Broadcast Distribution Table (BDT) in each BBMD
•
Enable an i-Vu Open Control System to find routers that are on different subnets
• Allow controllers on one subnet to communicate with controllers on other subnets
•
Enable i-Vu to see, upload, or configure controllers on different subnets
NOTE In this document, the term "router" refers to the i-Vu Open Router or the i-Vu Open Link.
1
Assign an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway for each i-Vu Open Link on the IP network. See
Addressing the i-Vu Open Link (page
To set up BBMDs using the BBMD Configuration Tool
7).
2
Acquire the BBMD Configuration Tool from the Tech Tools DVD or from the Carrier Control Systems
Support Site necessary.
3
Make a list of the IP addresses for each router that will function as a BBMD in your system.
In the above illustration, the i-Vu Open Link, address 172.18.1.2, must be configured as a BBMD for the
172.18 subnet, while the i-Vu Open Link, address 172.16.1.15, must be configured as a BBMD for the
172.16 subnet.
