Address Server
Limits
This table displays the parameters and limits of the address server:
Operating on a
Corporate
Network
Keep these points in mind when operating on a corporate network:
z Before placing the NOE on a corporate network, Schneider Electric recommends
that you discuss the installation with your MIS department. It is likely that your
company's corporate network has at least one DHCP server running already. If
the NOE's DHCP server is running on the same network, it may disturb the
network.
z To avoid any possible problem related to the NOE's DHCP server on the
corporate network, you have to ensure that the DHCP server is not running in the
NOE by not having address entries in the configuration. If there are no configured
devices in the address server Configuration page, then the NOE will not start the
DHCP server.
Available FDR
Agents
Three FDR agents are available:
z Momentum ENT
z Micro ETZ
z ATV58
The role-name.prm configuration files are stored in the NOE in non-volatile
memory. Therefore, after a power failure all configurations will be available.
BOOTP and
DHCP
Compatible
Devices
Use either the MAC address or the role name (see Adding Entries, p. 288) to assign
IP addresses. Therefore, you may use the DHCP server with devices that support
BOOTP only, such as Momentum ENT v1.
Parameter Limit
Maximum number of address server entries 128
Maximum size of the configuration file per device 4K bytes
Total size of Faulty Device Replacement storage 512K bytes
Maximum role name size 16 Characters
Note: For the DHCP server to work correctly the following must be observed.
z Address class and subnet class configured for the devices must match.
z Address class of the NOE and of the devices must be the same.
