LINCS Configuration

707023-003

Primary Group Address

Enter a two digit hexadecimal PU address that will serve as the group polling address for this
downstream PU. LINCS uses this address for the primary (DAP) group poll feature. Multiple
DAP downstream connections on the same board should be assigned the same group poll
address if they share membership in a group. The group poll address can not be the same as
any individual PU address defined on this line.

Enter 00 if group polling is not used on this line or if this PU is not a member of any group.

NOTE: The primary group address must be set to zero for SCC lines.

Remote IP Address

Enter a 12-digit decimal number for the IP address of the remote downstream node. The IP
address should be a uniquely assigned value given to the remote device by the network
administrator. It needs to follow the guidelines of any IP address assignment.

Remote LAN Address

Enter a 12-digit hex number for the LAN address of the downstream node. Make sure that the
LAN address and SAP combination you enter is unique for this line.

Remote SAP

Enter a 2-digit hex SAP address. This is the SAP address of the downstream node (DSN) for
this gateway circuit. Valid SAP addresses are multiples of 4, ranging from 4 to EC (hex).

ARP Filter

Enter the IP address used by the host into this field to inform LINCS to implement the ARP
filter and pass only ARPs destined for the configured address. This filter reduces the overall
number of packets being passed to the host. If this field is left blank, the ARP filter is turned
off, and all ARPs will be passed to the host.
