5 Introduction to BACnet Routing BACnet routers are devices that interconnect BACnet networks to form a BACnet internetwork. BACnet routers make use of BACnet network layer protocol messages (layer 3) to maintain their routing tables and exchange their routing information. 5.1 BACnet Network Numbers BACnet Network Numbers are assigned to router devices only. Each single router knows the BACnet Network Number of each of the Data-Link-Layers and interfaces supported by the router. The network number is allowed in the range from 1 to 65.534. BACnet Network numbers shall be unique within the entire BACnet network. 5.2 BACnet Network Layer Messages BACnet currently supports 10 network layer messages exchanged by router devices. The two most important messages are Who-Is- Router-To-Network and I-Am-Router-To-Network sent as broadcast to determine other router devices and to distribute the information about the own routing capabilities to other router devices. 5.3 Example of a BACnet Network 14

6 General Configuration This chapter describes the setup steps to configure UBR-01. 6.1 Setup using a web-browser The UBR-01 setup is provided by a HTTP web-server (standard port TCP 80).

8.4 Submenu BBMD This page provides the settings for BBMD (BACnet Broadcast Management Device). If set to this mode, UBR-01 provides BBMD functionality to the local sub-network. 8.4.1 Two-hop Forwarding If in this mode, the IP-routers are not involved in broadcast transport. In two-hop mode, the broadcast messages are transported to the BBMD and the BBMD will send the forwarded broadcast to the local network. If in this mode, the BDT (Broadcast Distribution Table) contains the address of external BBMD and the Subnet/Distribution mask is a mask, which specifies the distribution of the forwarded broadcast to the local network for each connected BBMD (normally 255.255.255.255 to distribute the broadcast messages to all devices in the sub-network). If in One-hop mode, the BDT contains the addresses of the IProuters, which forward the broadcast messages to the external sub- 26

networks. This mode requires to setup the IP-Routers to support the so-called Directed Broadcast mode. If in this mode, the BDT contains the addresses of the external IProuters (not the external BBMD!) and the Subnet/Distribution mask is the Subnet mask of IP-router providing broadcast-forwarding. 8.4.2 Adding a BDT Entry Enter IP-Address, UDP-Port and Subnet/Distribution mask of the BDT-entry and click the Add -button. This creates a new BDT entry. The BDT can contain up to 30 external entries. Please note that the UBR-01 device is always included in the BDT, so it is not required to include the own address to the BDT. 27

BDT entries are shown in the list Broadcast Distribution Table. 8.4.3 Removing BDT Entries Simply check the BDT-entry/entries you want to remove and click the Remove -button. 8.4.4 IP Address Setup the IP-Address of the external BBMD or IP-Router. 8.4.5 UDP Port Setup the UDP-Port, which is used for BACnet communication in the external BACnet-sub-network.

Annex Location of the BACnet Device Object 53

15 Location of the BACnet Device Object In router applications the Device Object of the Router can only reside at one of the supported media (without using Virtual Networks). In UBR-01 the Device Object resides at the MS/TP layer. As usual in routing applications, the BACnet network layer (ISO/OSI layer 3) is always involved in the BACnet telegrams. The following picture shows a telegram example with support of network layer 3 (I-Am telegram from network number 2, in this configuration MS/TP). This picture was taken using VTS (Visual Test Shell). This free BACnet software can be downloaded from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vts/. 54
