NsiNodeId

Summary

Contains the node ID associated with the network services

interface (NSI).
The NsiNodeId and NsiSubnetId omprise the logical network

subnet/node address the NSD will use to send subnet node and

group addressed messages, if the NSD is using a

high-performance network interface. This address is assigned to

the network services interface when the Open method is invoked

on the System

object. The System

object must be open for these

properties to contain a valid value.
The SubnetId and NodeId properties of the AppDevice object

contained by the NetworkServiceDevice return the subnet/node

address the NSD will use for broadcast and neuron ID addressing.

Standard network interfaces use the NsiSubentId and NsiNodeId

only for server/remote full client communication.

Availability

Local, full, and lightweight clients.
