FLARE LINAC network

The FLARE LINAC network (color code: blue or orange, not very well defined) is the network that the PLCs of the FLARE LINAC connect to. All addresses are static.

• FFT manages this network.
• There is no vLAN (packets are untagged).
• IP subnet is 192.168.1.0/24.
• There is no DNS.
• Switch is FLARE switch. Because of limited amount of ports, we also use the FLARE Cisco VPN router as a switch.

Servers on this network:

• o-isolator
• flare-control
• linac-control
• flarelinac-vpn

Virtual LAN - a local area network that maps devices on a basis other than geographic location, for example, by department, type of user, or primary application. Traffic that flows between different VLANs must go through a router, just as if the VLANs are on two separate LANs.

Internet Protocol - the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries.
