Expand description
Configured Network Port snapshots and selected live state (135-2020 Clause 12.56).
The B/IP constructor supplies the flat application-level IPV4 profile.
Configuration is read-only over BACnet: this object has no pending
activation owner, socket, or NIC discovery. Reconstruct it to change local
configuration. An explicit B/IP owner may publish its actual bind and mode,
and learn Network_Number/Quality, without changing configured provenance.
In FOREIGN or BBMD mode the object serves that mode’s properties, a
BBMD’s tables read live from the transport (see bip_mode).
Non-B/IP snapshots expose only the common application rows;
they do not claim a complete transport-specific SC, Ethernet or MS/TP profile.
Structs§
- BipPort
Config - Complete configured B/IP snapshot. Fixed-size addresses prevent malformed IPv4 values. Zero address/mask/gateway and one zero DNS address mean unknown or unconfigured; they do not describe an observed interface or route.
- Network
Port Object - A declared application-port snapshot, optionally associated with an owned link.
