Networking

The aircraft uses network address translation (NAT) between the internal network on board the aircraft (referred to as “LAN”) and external “WAN” network used by the Ground control station to communicate with all aircraft incorporating the main radio link.

WAN

The WAN uses a 10.10.0.0/24 subnet, with a gateway of 10.10.0.1. The ground station runs a DHCP server supplying a wan-side IP address to each connected aircraft / device.

The WAN IP address of an aircraft and as such, it is more useful to make connections to its hostname at <aircraft type>-<serial number>.anv, e.g. icon-12185.anv.

LAN

The LAN internally on the aircraft uses a 10.10.1.0/24 subnet, with a gateway of 10.10.1.21 and has an onboard DHCP server to pass out IP addresses to devices that do not have static IP addresses.

Port forwarding is required to access or send data to specific internal devices from the WAN side (GCS etc). To set up port forwarding on your aircraft see Port Forwarding

Reserved IP Range

The reserved IP range for staticly assigned custom components/payloads is 100-150 ie. 10.10.1.100-10.10.1.150
