Issue
What is the difference between Subnet/node addressing and neuron ID addressing in Xbuilder
Environment
TAC Xbuilder
Cause
If neuron ID addressing is set the Xenta server will use the neuron ID the first time it contacts the device to ask for the subnet/node.
When it get the subnet/node it will use that address until it loses contact with the device.
When the Xbuilder is connected to a TAC Vista database this is set as default set and cannot be changed. With this setting you can change the addressing of the device without downloading the subnet node address. But if you replace a device then the Xbuilder project have to be updated and downloaded again.
If subnet/node addressing is set then the device will only use the address to communicate.
Resolution
If neuron ID addressing is set the Xenta server will use the neuron ID the first time it contacts the device to ask for the subnet/node.
When it get the subnet/node it will use that address until it loses contact with the device.
If subnet/node addressing is set then the device will only use the address to communicate.
