BACnet/IP Server Routing Configuration
Click the
Set Up Static Device Binding and Foreign Device Registration
button at the bottom of the
BACnet/IP Server Configuration page to access the BACnet Routing Configuration page for this device.
These settings are used when connecting to a BACnet/IP Client on a different subnet.
There are two ways to cross subnets on BACnet/IP:
1)
Foreign Device Registration (recommended): This option can be used ONLY when the BACnet/IP
Broadcast Management Device (BBMD) device on the other subnet (often integrated into Client
devices) supports Foreign Device Registration. To use, enter the IP Address of the BBMD device
into the gateway and select a Time-To-Live (TTL), the TTL defines how often the gateway should
send a message to the BBMD device alerting them of the gateways presence.
2)
Static Device Binding: This option can be used only if the BACnet/IP Client supports Static Device
Binding. This typically isn’t supported. To use, simply enter the IP Address and Device Instance of
the Client device. The Client device will also have to enter the IP Address and Device Instance of
the gateway.
