addressType | Identifier Both IFA011 and model have this as an enum called "AddressType" with literals: "MAC" "IP" (note: model incorrectly calls this AdressType) | 1 | Describes the type of the address to be assigned to the CP instantiated from the parent CPD. Value:
The content type shall be aligned with the address type supported by the layerProtocol attribute of the parent CPD. | OpenModelAttribute
|
| l2AddressData | L2AddressData | 0..1 | Provides the information on the MAC addresses to be assigned to the CP(s) instantiated from the parent CPD. Shall be present when the addressType is MAC address. | OpenModelAttribute
Experimental |
| l3AddressData | L3AddressData | 0..1 | Provides the information on the IP addresses to be assigned to the CP instantiated from the parent CPD. Shall be present when the addressType is IP address. | OpenModelAttribute
