Command
Description
ip852chanmode mode
Displays the IP-852 channel mode or sets it to one of the following
values:
1 - Backward Compatible (required for the i.LON 1000 and LNS
3). You must enable this option if your channel will contain any
i.LON 1000’s or LNS 3 L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP interfaces. This causes the
SmartServer to operate using a protocol that is compatible with
these devices, but is not strictly EIA-852 compliant. In backward
compatible mode, you can use a maximum of 40 devices. You can
only have one device located behind each NAT firewall, and you
cannot have duplicate IP addresses or duplicate port assignments.
2 - Standard EIA-852. Select this option when using a standard
L
ON
W
ORKS
IP-852 channel. When using this mode, you can only
have one device located behind each NAT firewall. You can use
up to 256 devices per channel in this mode. The IP address
(including the port assignment) must be unique. This is the
default.
3 - Extended Firewall Support. This option is recommended
whenever your IP-852 channel crosses an IP firewall, whether or
not the firewall is using Network Address Translation (NAT).
Depending on the particular firewall and its configuration, this
option may be required. In addition, this will allow you to place
more than one IP-852 device behind an NAT firewall, and to
create multiple OpenLNS L
ON
W
ORKS
/IP interfaces in the same
channel using the same IP address (but with different ports).
Without this option, only one device may reside behind a NAT
firewall, and all devices on the channel must have unique IP
addresses. This option extends the EIA-852 protocol in a way that
is not strictly compliant with that standard, though it should still be
compatible with other EIA-852 devices. You can use up to 256
devices per channel in this mode.
ip852port portnumber
Sets the local IP port for the IP-852 router.
linkstats [all|clear]
