Within this configuration files, general configuration parameters of the KNX interface are set. Each parameter within the N-MESH configuration file is identified with a name. The name is case-insensitive (i.e. capitalization is not considered). The scope indicates the allowed values of the parameter. The default value specifies the values that is used when no value is set by the user.
The following parameters are only relevant for ABB IG/S 1.1 and eibNode gateways:

 

Parameter

UDP.ReceiveOwnTelegrams

Description

This parameter specifies whether KNX telegrams that have the local IP address as source address are accepted by the server. ON - telegrams with local IP address are accepted OFF - local telegrams are ignored

Scope

ON, OFF

Unit

None

Default value

OFF


Parameter

UDP.ReceiveBroadcastTelegrams

Description

It specifies whether KNX telegrams from the "BROADCAST" gateway are accepted by the server. ON - "BROADCAST" telegrams are accepted OFF - "BROADCAST" telegrams are dropped

Scope

ON, OFF

Unit

None

Default value

ON



! If a KNX group address is only assigned to the "BROADCAST" router, all telegrams that use this KNX groups address are interpreted as "BROADCAST" telegrams – even if they are received from a KNXnet/IP router that is defined within the server.
If the KNX group address is assigned to another router (e.g. "192.168.1.2") and a telegram with this KNX address is received from this router, the telegram will be interpreted as "192.168.1.2" telegram.

 

Parameter

UDP.SendBroadcastAsMultipleUnicast

Description

It defines whether the "BROADCAST" telegrams are sent as IP broadcast packets or as multiple unicast packets to each single router.

Scope

ON, OFF

Unit

None

Default value

OFF


Parameter

UDP.NetworkCardIPAddress

Description

It specifies the IP address of the network interface which is used to communicate with ABB IG/S gateways. If no IP address is specified, the IP address of the system's default network interface is used.

Scope

IP address

Unit

None

Default value

IP address of the default network interface

 

The following parameters are only relevant for ABB IG/S 1.1 gateways:

 

Parameter

IGS.ReceiveMulticastAddress

Description

It defines the multicast group (multicast IP address) that is used to communicate with ABB IG/S gateways.

Scope

IP address

Unit

None

Default value

239.192.39.238

 

The following parameters are only relevant for eibNode gateways:

 

Parameter

eibNode.SenderNetID

Description

It specifies the eibNode NetID for outgoing telegrams.

Scope

0 255

Unit

None

Default value

0


Parameter

eibNode.ReceiverNetIDFilter

Description

It specifies the NetIDs of telegrams which are accepted by the server. If this parameter is left empty, all eibNode telegrams are accepted. For example, if "eibNode.ReceiverNetIDFilter" is set to "0,2,3,7", only the telegrams with a NetID of 0,2,3, or 7 are accepted.

Scope

Comma separated list of values that are in the range of 0 - 255 (e.g. 0,15,36,223)

Unit

None

Default value

 

 

The following parameters are only relevant for KNXnet/IP devices:

 

Parameter

NETIP.NetworkCardIPAddress

Description

The IP address of the local network interface used for KNX communication. If left empty, the BMS Server attempts to determine a suitable network interface based on local IP addresses and network masks combined with the interface's IP address. If the BMS Server is unable to find a suitable interface, an error message is raised.

Scope

IP address

Unit

None

Default value

IP address of the network interface for KNX communication.


Parameter

NETIP.NAT

Description

This parameter specifies whether the KNXnet/IP device is behind a NAT router or firewall. ON - the NAT flag within the KNXnet/IP tunneling protocol is set. OFF - the NAT flag is not set.

Scope

ON, OFF

Unit

None

Default value

OFF


Parameter

NETIP.ServerReceivePort

Description

Here the local UDP port for incoming KNXnet/IP tunnelling telegrams can be specified.

Scope

0 - 65535

Unit

None

Default value

20146


Parameter

NETIP.ServerSendPort

Description

Here the local UDP port for outgoing KNXnet/IP tunnelling telegrams can be specified.

Scope

0 - 65535

Unit

None

Default value

20146
