== BACnet/IP configuration ==
This is the most commonly used type of BACnet, which is designed to work over Ethernet networks using the Internet Protocol (IP). It supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.
This is the most commonly used type of BACnet, which is designed to work over Ethernet networks using the Internet Protocol (IP). It supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.
For this configuration you must have a Public IP address. You can read up more on this in our article on '''[[Private and Public IP Addresses]]'''.

Install the BACnet package on RUT955 and navigate to '''Services → BACnet''' → '''enable''' the '''instance''' and '''BBMD'''. Everything else can be left as default or changed according to your needs.

The configuration will also require you to add port forward rule in the firewall configuration. To do that, open Router1 WebUI and navigate to '''Network → Firewall → Port Forwards'''. Create a port forward rule to forward UDP packets from Router2 WAN to Router1 LAN address port.

'''Note''': When YABE sends registration packets you will need to find out which port YABE is using (One way is to look through the traffic with wireshark on your PC or TCP dump on router 1 or router 2)

If you restart YABE software or delete and create new communication device, YABE might use different port number, and you will need to change port forward configured in router connected to your PC.

Navigate to '''Services → BACnet''', there:
# '''Enable''' BACnet
# '''Enable''' BBMD
# '''BBMD interface''' - select the interface with Public IP.
# '''Enable Port forward''' - this will automatically create a port forward rule.
