UpdateIPRowDetails

Associated with: SCADAPack x70 IP Routing Tables (on SCADAPack x70 Device Configuration items)

Security permission required to access this method: Configure

This method is the equivalent of updating the row properties within ViewX (see Add and Configure the Entries in an IP Routing Table)

Use these arguments for updating a row in a IP Routing table (for further information, see Using an IP Routing Table to Route TCP/IP Packets to another TCP/IP Host):

  • Row (Byte)—Specify the row number within the table (1 to n).
  • DestinationIPAddress (Long)—Specify the required destination IP address. This address is used in conjunction with the Subnet Mask to identify the required node on a remote subnet. For a table giving information on which IP address to add for each route type, see Using an IP Routing Table to Route TCP/IP Packets to another TCP/IP Host.

    Example:

    For the Destination IP address 192.168.1.97, you might use the hex value C0A80161.

  • DestinationSubnetMask (Long)—Specify the Subnet mask that is required in conjunction with the IP address to identify the required node on a remote subnet.
  • DestinationPort (Byte)—Use this argument to specify the port on the SCADAPack x70 device via which the IP packet is to be forwarded (re-transmitted). Serial ports are only valid when the Port Function is set to 'PPP/TCPIP'.
    • 1—Serial Port 1
    • 2—Serial Port 2
    • 3—Serial Port 3
    • 4—Serial Port 4
    • 5—Serial Port 5 (SCADAPack 47x devices only)
    • 6—Edge (SCADAPack 47xi devices only)
    • 10—Ethernet 1
    • 11—Ethernet 2
    • 12—Ethernet 3 (SCADAPack 57x devices only)
  • GatewayIPAddress (Long)—Specify the IP address of the host that provides the ‘gateway’ to the target host. Specify 0.0.0.0 for non-Gateway routes.

    Example:

    For the Gateway IP address 192.168.1.97, you might use the hex value C0A80161.

  • Metric (Long)—Specify a number (1 to n) that determines the route priority when multiple paths exist for interconnecting IP hosts. The higher the number, the lower the priority. Specify zero to apply the default metric value for the particular type of route.
