Module network_port 

Configured Network Port snapshots and selected live state (135-2020 Clause 12.56).

The B/IP and B/IPv6 constructors supply the flat application-level IPV4 and IPV6 profiles (ip_config). Configuration is read-only over BACnet: this object has no socket or NIC discovery. Reconstruct it to change local configuration. An explicit B/IP or B/IPv6 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, read live from the transport (see bip_mode), for either IP version. A BBMD’s BDT and registration setting, and a foreign device’s BBMD and time-to-live, are writable when the transport can change them, and wait for activation (pending), as is a B/IP port’s multicast group (multicast). Other snapshots expose only the common application rows; they do not claim a complete transport-specific SC, Ethernet or MS/TP profile.

Structs

Bip6PortConfig

Complete configured B/IPv6 snapshot. Fixed-size addresses prevent malformed IPv6 values. The unspecified address :: for the address, gateway or one DNS server means unknown or unconfigured; none of them describes an observed interface or route.

BipPortConfig

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.

NetworkPortObject

A declared application-port snapshot, optionally associated with an owned link.
