Figure 3 B574 IP Network Topology
An IP network based on Ethernet technology serves as the backbone network linking the B574 with
the server. The B574 uses a wired Ethernet connection to the B573 (MBX) bridge that communicates
with the server using a UDP protocol. In the drawing above, the Layer-2 networks are segregated by
PAN ID. Note that the routers in each PAN do not necessarily need to be physically located in
geographically segregated locations. If a router can make a solid RF connection into a network, then
the router could be geographically located in a neighboring PAN location.
