Addresses and port number
Ethernet address (MAC)
A splitter box is identified by its MAC address, encoded in 6 bytes. The first three
bytes are fixed; they identify the manufacturer.
The next three are unique values assigned to each splitter box.
This address is fixed and cannot be modified. It can be seen on the label stuck on
the side of the splitter box.
IP address
Every item of equipment connected to an Ethernet network must have a unique
IP address. This address makes it possible to refer to a specific unit.
Subnet mask
The subnet mask defines a range of IP addresses that can be accessed from an
item of equipment.
Standard IP subnet masks:
Examples:
XXX: 0 to 255
Port number
All TCP connections and all UDP datagrams are defined by a destination
IP address and a port number. For example, a Telnet application generally uses
port 23.
The serial channel of the unit (its port) can be associated with a particular
TCP⁄UDP port number. Port number 9999 is reserved for accessing the unit’s
configuration window.
