    Power is off, or power error condition exists. Adjustable Pull High/low Resistors and Terminators for the RS-485 Port (NPort S8455I Series only) In some critical environments, you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection of serial signals. When using termination resistors, it is important to set the pull high/low resistors correctly so that the electrical signal is not corrupted.

  • Page 25: Choosing The Serial Operation Mode

    Choosing the Serial Operation Mode In this chapter, we describe the various serial operation modes of the NPort S8000. The options include an operation mode that uses a driver installed on the host computer and operation modes that rely on TCP/IP socket programming concepts.

  • Page 26: Overview

    NPort S8000 Series Choosing the Serial Operation Mode Overview The device server function of the NPort S8000 enables network operation of traditional RS-232/422/485 devices, in which a device server is a tiny computer equipped with a CPU, real-time OS, and TCP/IP protocols that can bi-directionally translate data between the serial and Ethernet formats.

  • Page 27: Rfc2217 Mode

    NPort S8000 Series Choosing the Serial Operation Mode RFC2217 Mode RFC-2217 mode is similar to Real COM mode. That is, a driver is used to establish a transparent connection between a host computer and a serial device by mapping the serial port on the NPort S8000 to a local COM port on the host computer.

  • Page 28: Udp Mode

    NPort S8000 Series Choosing the Serial Operation Mode UDP Mode Compared to TCP communication, UDP is faster and more efficient. In UDP mode, you can multicast data from the serial device to multiple host computers, and the serial device can also receive data from multiple host computers, making this mode ideal for message display applications.

    NPort S8000 Series Switch Featured Functions Multicast Filtering Using Multicast Filtering Multicast filtering improves the performance of networks that carry multicast traffic. This section explains multicasts, multicast filtering, and how multicast filtering can be implemented on your NPort S8000. The Concept of Multicast Filtering What is an IP Multicast? A multicast is a packet sent by one host to multiple hosts.
  • Page 111 NPort S8000 Series Switch Featured Functions Multicast Filtering Multicast filtering ensures that only end-stations that have joined certain groups receive multicast traffic. With multicast filtering, network devices only forward multicast traffic to the ports that are connected to registered end-stations. The following two figures illustrate how a network behaves without multicast filtering and with multicast filtering.
