The IP router can be used as a line or backbone coupler. It provides a data connection between the upper KNXnet/IP line (main line or backbone) and the lower KNX TP bus line (secondary line). The basic functionality of the IP router is to couple the Ethernet to one or more KNX TP lines. The IP router has a galvanic isolation between the Ethernet and the KNX TP lines. Due to its flexibility, the IP router can be used as a line coupler, e.g. connecting several KNX TP lines via Ethernet. And it can be used as a backbone coupler to connect several TP areas or different TP installation systems via Ethernet.
The main task of the IP router is to filter the data traffic according to the installation hierarchy.
For group-oriented communication, the traffic is filtered according to the built-in filter tables.
With the ETS or another KNX-compatible commissioning tool, the IP router can be used as a programming interface. For this purpose, the device provides up to 4 additional physical addresses that can be used for tunneling.
GVS IP routers support KNXnet/IP, ARP, ICMP, IGMP, HTTP, UDP/IP, TCP/IP and DHCP.
