n Host address for open communications
Select the host address for open communications from the range of Vnet/IP network
addresses—which are 130 to 253—that you can use in open communications. The default host
address for recommended layer 3 switches is set to 253. Ensure that the host address is not
duplicated in Vnet/IP stations and all other devices in a Vnet/IP domain.

n Virtual IP address for control network TCP/IP communications
The control network TCP/IP protocol is used for communications such as downloading recipes
in CENTUM from HIS to FCS. Vnet/IP protocols support encapsulated control network TCP/
IP protocols or TCP/IP over V net to remain compatible with the existing V net system. For this
purpose, you have to set a virtual IP address. In normal conditions, use the following default IP
address that is automatically determined by the domain number and station number:
• IP address: 172.16.<domain number>.<station number>
• Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
