Owning Palette: RT Utilities VIs

Requires: RT Module

Sets the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS server, and DNS name settings of the RT target you specify using the MAC Address input. After applying the settings, this VI restarts the RT target.

RT Apply Target Network Settings (DHCP)

	MAC address is the MAC address of the networked device. This input must be in hexadecimal format without : delimiters. Use the RT Get Target Information VI to obtain the MAC address of an RT target programmatically.
	DNS name specifies the DNS name to use.
	halt if TCP/IP fails? specifies whether to halt the RT target if TCP/IP communication fails.
	error in (no error) describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
	MAC address out returns the MAC address of the target.
	IP settings after restart returns the IP settings of the RT target. If the IP settings change upon restarting, this output returns the new IP settings that take effect after the target restarts. If the previous IP address of the target is in use by another device on the network and the target is configured to use DHCP, the IP address of the target might change upon restarting. IP address is the IP address of the networked device. DNS name is the network DNS name of the target. subnet mask is the bit mask used to identify the subnet in which the target resides on the network. gateway is the network gateway used by the target. DNS server is the domain name server used by the target.
	error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.

RT Apply Target Network Settings (Static)

	MAC address is the MAC address of the networked device. This input must be in hexadecimal format without : delimiters. Use the RT Get Target Information VI to obtain the MAC address of an RT target programmatically.
	IP settings specifies the static IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS server, and DNS name settings to use. IP address specifies the static IP address to use. DNS name specifies the DNS name to use. subnet mask specifies the subnet mask to use. gateway specifies the network gateway to use. DNS server specifies the DNS server to use.
	halt if TCP/IP fails? specifies whether to halt the RT target if TCP/IP communication fails.
	error in (no error) describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
	MAC address out returns the MAC address of the target.
	IP settings after restart returns the IP settings of the RT target. If the IP settings change upon restarting, this output returns the new IP settings that take effect after the target restarts. If the previous IP address of the target is in use by another device on the network and the target is configured to use DHCP, the IP address of the target might change upon restarting. IP address is the IP address of the networked device. DNS name is the network DNS name of the target. subnet mask is the bit mask used to identify the subnet in which the target resides on the network. gateway is the network gateway used by the target. DNS server is the domain name server used by the target.
	error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.
