ETC Eos Titanium, Eos, and Gio v2.0.0 - Manual (Page 392)

374 Eos Titanium, Eos, and Gio Operations Manual
FDX Feedback
Clicking in the enable box will allow Eos to receive FDX dimmer feedback over the network.
Broadcast Type
• Directed Broadcast - Broadcast packets are directed to a subnet based on the IP address
and subnet mask of the sender.
• Limited Broadcast - The limited broadcast address is 255.255.255.255. It is limited because
routers will never forward datagrams with that destination address. This means that
datagrams with the limited broadcast address are confined to the particular network segment
on which they originate.
WiFi Remote
Select to allow WiFi RFRs, like the iRFR or aRFR, to connect to Eos. For additional information,
including setup, please visit the
iRFR Documentation Wiki and aRFR Documentation Wiki ,
www.etcconnect.com/wiki.
UDP Strings
Clicking in the enable box will allow the selected port to send UDP strings.
DHCP Service
All settings in this section require a reboot of the desk before they will take effect. If this section is
grayed out, or you are unable to change any settings, you don’t have Net3 Services installed on
your desk. Net3 Services are installed by the installer for ETC's Gateway Configuration Editor
(GCE) software, which is available for download from the ETC website.
Eos can provide a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) address server. DHCP is a TCP/
IP protocol that dynamically assigns an IP address to a network device when it requests one.
This is a small and simple DHCP server that is intended to be used on non-routed networks. It will
not serve IP addresses across a router.
Clicking in the enable box will start the DHCP server in the Eos desk. It will use the settings below
to determine which IP addresses it gives out.
• First Address- This sets the starting IP address of the range of IP addresses the DHCP
server will give out.
• Number of Addresses- This sets how many IP addresses the DHCP server will give out. A
setting of 500 means it will give out IP addresses to the first 500 devices that ask for an IP
address.
• Subnet Mask - This sets the logical network size vs. the device address. ETC’s default is
255.255.000.000 (class B). This is the subnet mask that the DHCP server will give to network
devices.
• Routed - If checked, you can use the default gateway box, below, to specify the gateway you
would like DHCP devices to use. If unchecked, the DHCP server will serve the same value for
both the devices IP address and gateway, which is a suitable configuration for non-routed
networks.
C A U T I O N : There should only be a single DHCP server active on a network. It is possible to
start more than one DHCP server on a single network (nothing is built-in to DHCP
servers to prevent this from happening). If this occurs, it will result in unstable
conditions and possibly result in network communications failures.
