Discovery of IP Address and Firmware Version of Remote CFIP Unit
Connected to Router In Case one IP address of Remote Units is Known
For this purpose the command “dp remote <local_addr> <remote_addr> <scan_addr>”
should be executed in ‘cmd’. Instead of <local_addr> place the IP address of your PC Ethernet adapter
that is connected to router/CFIP unit. Instead of <remote_addr> place the IP address of one of the
remote CFIP units known to you. Instead of <scan_addr> place the broadcast address. Refer to
Figure
8.3
for example.

(!)
Note that IP address of Ethernet adapter should belong to the same subnet as CFIP units, i.e. the
subnet of CFIP units should be known. The subnet mask of Ethernet adapter and CFIP units may
differ. This command sends discovery messages on specified broadcast address to all devices in the
specified subnet. All CFIP devices from specified subnet are responding with its own IP address/CIDR
notation and firmware version
(!)
Note that one IP address of remote CFIP units should be known. The remote host sends discovery
packets to specified broadcast address and the responses are delivered to the local host. This allows
to find out the IP address and firmware version of neighbouring devices of a known remote device.
The bypassing of a router is possible as the response packets are unicast.
