<WorkspaceDirectory>\DataFiles\nxaGatewayDefinitions.3540.dat


The gateway manager maintains the connections to the KNXnet/IP devices which are connected to the KNX system. The gateway definition table defines all the KNXnet/IP interfaces and routers that are used within the project.

...

'Syntax of the Gateway Definition Table:
'IP Address;Type;Port;Name;Locality;Description ;Options'
192.168.1.1;IGS;51000; GATE 1;Room 51;pre-defined Gateway 1
192.168.1.2;NETIP;3671;Gate2;;;;;Router1;;
192.168.1.3;EIBNODE;1634;Gate3;;;;;;;

Each line – except comment lines that start with ' – defines a single KNXnet/IP gateway.

Info

! The virtual "BROADCAST" gateway is added by the system and must not be defined in the table.

 

    
1IP Address
 
 IPThis attribute specifies the IP address of the KNXnet/IP gateway. The IP address is also used to uniquely identify the gateway within the server. Therefore, it must be unique within the whole network.
2Gateway Type
 
Enum The type of the KNXnet/IP gateway.
"IGS" refers to ABB IG/S, EIBNODE to b.a.b - technologie eibnode, and NETIP to all other KNXnet/IP routers and interfaces.3UDP Port 
SEC_NETIP for secure KNXnet/IP tunnelling, NETIP for native KNXnet/IP tunnelling and NETIP_ROUTING for native KNXnet/IP Routing
3Port UDP or TCP portThis attributes represents the UDP or TCP port number which is used to connect to the gateway.
4Name
 
 StringIt is used to give the gateway a human-readable name (can be any user-defined string).
5Locality StringThis attribute can be used to specify the location of the gateway (can be any user-defined string).
6Description StringThis attribute can be used to specify a human-readable text that further describes the gateway (can be any user-defined string).
7
Options If the gateway is of type "EIBNODE", the SenderNetID has to be specified here.8 - 11Path, Extended Data 1 - 3 These columns are for internal use only
Source phys. KNX Address KNX phys. addressThe phys. KNX address used by the NETx BMS Core. Only used for KNXnet/IP routing.
8Network Card IP AddressIPThe local network card IP address used by the NETx BMS Core. Only used for KNXnet/IP routing.
9Management CodeStringThe management code used for authentication to a secure KNXnet/IP tunnelling device. This must be identical to the code used within the ETS.
10Authentication CodeStringThe authentication code used for authentication to a secure KNXnet/IP tunnelling device. This must be identical to the code used within the ETS.
