3. NETWORK STRUCTURE
3.1. Wireless Network
HF2211 can be set as a wireless STA and AP as well. And logically, it supports two wireless interfaces, one is used as STA and the other is AP. Other STA devices can join into the wireless network through AP interface. So, the it can provide flexible networking method and network topology. Functions is as follow:
Figure 11. HF2211 Function Structure <Introductions> AP: Wireless access point which is the central joint. Usually, wireless router is a AP, other STA devices can connect with AP to join the network. STA: Wireless station which is terminal of a wireless network. Such as laptop and pad etc.
3.1.1. AP Network
HF2211 can construct a wireless network as AP. All the STA devices will consider the AP as the centre of the wireless network. The mutual communication can be transponded by AP, shown as follow:
- 15 -

HF2211 Serial Server Device User Manual
Figure 12. General AP Network
3.1.2. STA Wireless Network
Take the following picture as example. When router works in AP mode, HF2211 connects to the user's devices by RS232/RS485 interface. In this topology, the whole wireless network can be easily stretched.

3.1.3. AP+STA Wireless Network
HF2211 can support AP+STA method. It can support AP and STA interface at the same time. Shown as follow:
- 17 -

HF2211 Serial Server Device User Manual
Figure 14. AP+STA Wireless Network In this picture, HF2211 open the AP+STA function and the STA interface can be connected to the remote server by the router. Similarly, the AP interface can also be used. Phone/PAD can be connected to the AP interface and to control the serial devices or set itself. Through AP+STA function, it is convenient to use Phone/PAD to monitor the user's devices and not change its original settings. Through AP+STA function, it is convenient to configure the product. And, it solves the problem that the formal product can only configure by serial port. Notes that:
- 18 -

HF2211 Serial Server Device User Manual
When the AP+STA function is opened, the STA interface needs to connect to other router. Otherwise, STA interface will endlessly scan the router information nearby. When it is scanning, it will bring bad effects to the AP interface, like losing data etc.
AP and STA parts must set to the different sub-network for the product working as APSTA mode.
3.1.4. IOTService Software
Open the IOTService after connect to the AP hotspot generated by HF2211 or connect to Product Ethernet port to PC, then configure the parameter.

3.1.5. Webpage Configuration
Use PC to connect with HF2211 through its AP hotspot or Ethernet connection. Input the default IP (10.10.100.254, default username and password: admin/admin) to login the webpage to configure the parameter.

3.2. Ethernet Interface Function
HF2211 provides with a 100M Ethernet interface. Through the 100M Ethernet interface, user can achieve the connection among WIFI, serial port and Ethernet port.

3.2.1. Ethernet Port with Wi-Fi
Figure 20. Ethernet Interface Function HF2211 servers as APSTA and generate a central network. The IP addresses of all the devices and modules are in the same network segment. Note
If product works in AP mode, then the Ethernet is working as WAN mode, PC will use Auto-IP to set its IP when connect via Ethernet. Better to change via Wi-Fi, then the PC and other devices are all in same subnetwork. (10.10.100.xxx)
- 21 -

HF2211 Serial Server Device User Manual
3.2.2. Ethernet Interface Function(Router)
Figure 21. Ethernet Interface Function (Router) The HF2211 device Ethernet interface work in router mode. When connect to router, it will get IP address from router (as picture 192.168.1.100). The product itself generate a subnet (10.10.100.254 default). The device from the Ethernet interface is assigned with IP address by module (10.10.100.101). Then the device and the PC1 are in the same subnet for network communication. A connection fro PC1 to PC2, but PC2 cannot actively connect to PC1.

HF2211 Serial Server Device User Manual
3.2.3. Ethernet Port Function (Bridge)
Figure 22. Ethernet Port Function (Bridge) The HF2211 device Ethernet interface work in router mode. When connect to router, it will get IP address from router (as picture 192.168.1.101). AT the whole network, the product is like an invisible device. PC1 and PC2 can communicated mutually without any constraint. But if product needs to connect with other devices, it needs set LAN IP address (192.168.1.10 as picture) Notes: Webpage, IOTService, or Cli command to set working mode, by default is router mode. It need reboot when change its working mode.
