Working with Local Area Networks
If you are using an Ethernet connection between the LFP and the head,
they communicate with each other through an Ethernet Local Area
Network (LAN). The LFP and head are
devices
on the network. Under
certain circumstances you might need to change the LAN settings of the
devices so that the devices not only work together, but do so when
connected to another network. For example:
•
If you install the LFP as part of a multi-component system.
•
If you connect your MRMC equipment to a LAN.
•
If you move the equipment between networks.
•
If you have customised the LAN settings in a head for one of
the above reasons and then sent the head back to MRMC for
servicing. The service might change the LAN settings back to
the factory defaults, and you will need to customise them again
when you get the head back.
Introduction to LAN addresses
Each device on an Ethernet network has a suite of three addresses:
•
Internet Protocol (IP) address. This is the specific address
within the LAN.
•
Subnet (SN) address. This defines the size (address range) of
the local area network, and should normally be set to the value
shown in the next table.
•
Gateway (GW) address. This is the address of the device used
when talking between local area networks. This should
normally be set to the value shown in the next table, and you
would only change it if you needed to communicate with a
head that is not on the same LAN as the controller.
Together, these addresses indicate the device’s identity and location on the
network. Each address is usually written as a group of four numbers
separated by periods. The factory default values used in MRMC
equipment are shown in the next table:
