Backplane Interfaces

The IP address of the shelf manager backplane interfaces are created from the information in
the second IP connection record. Since these addresses are reachable through the hub from
outside the shelf, they must be different for different shelves. Therefore, the shelf geographical
address is used as third octet of the IP address. To allow for different network setups, different
network address schemes are used depending on the netmask found in the shelf manager IP
connection record.
The schemes are based on the following rules:
Use different IP networks for interface 1, interface 2 and virtual address.
In class A and class B networks, use shelf geographical address as third octet.
Use shelf manager hardware address as fourth octet.
