Locally Administrated Address
Each NPS 630/632 is preconfigured with a unique Node Address (inden-
tical to the serial number). You may change the node address to a Locally
Administrated Address by editing the Node Address entry in your config
file.
The Node Address consists of six hexadecimal numbers in the range 00 -
FF. The numbers are separated by spaces.
Example 1: The following config entry shows an example of a preconfigured Node
Address:
A locally administrated address must begin with one of the hexadecimal
numbers 4x, 5x, 6x, or 7x (01xx xxxx in binary format). Examples: 4B,
50, 6F and 77 are valid leading numbers. No restrictions apply to the five
remaining numbers.
Example 2: The following config entry shows an example of a locally administrated
address:
If you enter an invalid address, the current Node Address will remain
unchanged. It is not possible to set an address other than a valid locally
administrated address or the preconfigured Node Address.
You can restore the preconfigured Node Address by entering the NPS
630/632 serial number, or an address consisting of all 0’s.
Example 3: The following config entry restores the Node Address to the preconfigured
setting:
Important:
Always consult your network manager before changing the
Node Address
