SNMP station object

The SNMP station object addresses a specific PLC within the network.

The MAC address of the PLC must be defined in the connection description. The MAC address is 6 bytes long and is entered in the station object as a 12 character hex string in canonical format with or without separator.

The MAC address (Media Access Control, Ethernet ID) is the hardware address of each network adapter, and provides a unique identification of a device in a network.

Connection description syntax:

/CN=<MAC address>

or

<MAC address>

If the station number is defined as the /CN parameter, the connection description must always be specified in quotation marks ("...") in the object description.

Connection description examples:

CD="/CN=00-60-65-02-f0-2c"
CD=00606502f02c
