Important information
IGMP settings
As long as the system is using a managed switch, the following applies:
- “IGMP querier” should be disabled in all Flowire units
- “IGMPv2 compatability” should never be enabled in the Flowire connected to the system switch
- “IGMPv2 compatability” should always be enabled in the Flowire connected to the field equipment
More information on how to configure the Flowire’s IGMP settings
CCo settings
For optimal availability in cluster configurations, use the CCo settings in Flowire web as follows:
- Set the Flowire connected to the system switch to “CCo”
- Set the Flowires connected to the field equipment to “Not CCo”
In Exigo A/B systems, clusters must be connected to either the A or the B system. Flowire does not support redundant connections to devices in a cluster.
For 1 to 1 Flowire connections with A/B redundancy, we recommend:
- Leave the Flowires connected to the system switches on “Auto”
- Set the Flowires connected to the field equipment to “Not CCo”
More information about Flowire’s CCo settings.
