EclerNet devices should have a distinct IP address and subnet mask. IP address and subnet mask consist of 4 octets separated by dots, which can have different values. To simplify it’s determined these values should be:
- IP: 0-255, 0-255, 0-255, 1-254
- Subnet Mask: 0/255, 0/255, 0/255, 0/255
If in your subnet mask’s octets you have 255, your devices should have the same value in these octets in their IP addresses.If in you subnet mask’s octet you have 0, your devices can have any value between 0 and 255 in these octets in their IP addresses.Please avoid using IP addresses which end with 0, 1 or 255. These are reserved.You should always work with static IP addresses. Example:
PC (running EclerNet Manager):
- IP Address: 10.5.6.30
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Ecler device:
- IP Address: 10.5.5.33
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Another example with more Ecler devices. You can find more information regarding this in EclerNet Manager manual, see “IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ALLOCATION OF NETWORK PARAMETERS” in “Creating an EclerNet Project” section.
