IP Bridging

The Gateway supports RollCall bridging over IP. This allows two IQ Gateways to be connected
via IP so they can pass RollCall messages between networks.
To establish a RollCall bridge:
• The Gateways must be visible to each other via IP.
• Both Gateways must be set to RollNet addresses in the range 0x01-0x0F.
• At least one Gateway must be configured via the Bridge IP Addr control to connect to the
other's IP address.
• The bridge must be initiated by one Gateway via the Connect or Auto Connect controls.
Configuring IP Bridging
An IP bridge requires two Gateways, both connected to the IP infrastructure and set to RollCall
addresses in the range 0x01-0x0F. An example configuration might be:
Gateway 1
Ethernet -> Unit IP Address
file for the Ethernet interface to be configured, and
eth?-dhcp
file for the Ethernet interface to be configured, and
eth?-ip
file for the Ethernet interface to be configured, and
eth?-net
file for the Ethernet interface to be configured, and
eth?-gate
Gateway 2
