If tethered directly to the roboRIO both devices will self-assign IPs.

When connecting through the DAP1522, your PC will receive an IP address from the radio. When connecting via Ethernet (to either the radio or directly to the roboRIO) or Wireless (to the DLink radio), your computer adapter should be set to DHCP. When tethered directly to a PC, both devices will self-assign IPs. When connected to the DAP1522 bridge, the roboRIO will receive an IP from the bridge. The roboRIO Ethernet interface should be set to DHCP. The bridge is set to the same team based IP address as before (10.TE.AM.1) and will hand out DHCP address from 10.TE.AM.20 to 10.TE.AM.199
The 2015 Bridge Configuration Utility has been modified to enable the DHCP server on the DAP1522 radio in the home use case (AP mode), if you are putting the DAP1522 in bridge mode and using a router you can enable DHCP addressing on the router.

The roboRIO driver will automatically configure the IP address of the host (your computer) and roboRIO and the software listed above should be able to locate and utilize your roboRIO If using the USB interface, no setup is required. #How do I set up my Robot Network to use mDNS? Most web-browsers and applications should be able to utilize the mDNS address to access the roboRIO webserver as long as an mDNS provider is installed.įor example: you should be able to navigate to from any browser, or application requiring a hostname (like Putty, or Filezilla).Ĭhrome - In Google Chrome, a trailing ‘/’ must be appended to access mDNS addresses (eg.roboRIO-2168.local/)

iTunes uses mDNS and installs a resolver if your Windows machine has iTunes.
mDNS resolver is installed with NI/FIRST software.To use mDNS on FRC, a mDNS resolver must be installed on your development computer. This means that the roboRIO can be detected regardless of the interface or IP being used. The FRC Driver Station, LabVIEW, and the Eclipse plugins for C++ and Java are all programmed to discover your roboRIO using the mDNS protocol. Devices on the network can store this information in a cache so subsequent requests for this address can be resolved from the cache without repeating the network query.īasically, instead of having to know the IP address of every device on your network, you can communicate with them using their mDNS name (something like “ping roborio-2168.local” instead of “ping 10.21.68.2” The device then responds with a multicast message containing it’s IP. To resolve a host name a device sends out a multicast message to the network querying for the device. Multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) is a system which allows for resolution of host names to IP addresses on small networks with no dedicated name (DNS) server. There is also a new 2015 protocol which uses less bandwidth for DS to robot communications. The new scheme utilizes mDNS to allow for the use of DHCP addressing and seamless transition from Ethernet to USB and back. The network setup being tested for the 2015 system is a little bit different than the previous control system.
