services. In order to send broadcast and multicast traffic back out the EtherIP tunnels the
following routes must be added under network>routing table>create static route entry for the
appropriate managed interface.
Broadcast Traffic
Route Destination
192.168.160.255
Route Gateway
255.255.255.255
Netmask
255.255.255.255
Interface
Managed
This above example assumes we are referring to the managed physical network and the subnet is
192.168.160.0/24. If this is a managed vlan the Interface entry should be populated with the
appropriate managed vlan.
Multicast Traffic
Route Destination
224.0.0.0
Route Gateway
255.255.255.255
Netmask
240.0.0.0
Interface
Managed
This above example assumes we are referring to the managed physical network. If this is a
managed vlan the Interface entry should be populated with the appropriate managed vlan.
You may also be required to allow services in the firewall policy of the appropriate role specific
to the application. For example UDP 5353 for multicast DNS.
WARNING. Configuring these broadcast/multicast routes in networks with large
broadcast domains/subnets may cause performance issues.
Are BSAPs counted against the user limits?
No. BSAPs are excluded from the concurrent authenticated user limits and only count against the
