    The BACnet/IP network number is a 16-bit value (1–65534). Each network within the BACnet internetwork must have a unique number. This includes the BACnet/IP and MS/TP sides of the BASRTP-B. Do not use addresses 0 or 65535 since these addresses are reserved. IP Address (Default Value = 192.168.92.68)

    1. equals the highest MAC address of any master, and 2. all masters use sequential MAC addresses Since many BACnet devices do not allow this parameter to be changed, leave the BASRTP-B at the default value.
