Main Address

Introduction

A station configured in bridge mode has as many addresses as it does network connection points.

The network address that corresponds to the network module with the lowest module address

(module the farthest to the left in the station rack) is regarded as the main address of the station.

Using the main address of a station guarantees access to a bridge station.

Rule

A bridge station must always be accessed by its main address.

Addressing Example

The example shows the communication between stations connected on the Fipway networks.

For a communication from station A to station R2, the main address of station R2 is {11.3}.

For a communication from station A to station R1, the main address of station R1 is {12.7}.

For a communication from station A to station R3, the main address of station R3 is {13.5}.

For a communication from station A to station C, the address of station C is {12.7}5.0.56.
