Network Topology

This page provides an overview of the IP addresses and interfaces used in the Humanoids Lab. Each tab below describes a specific network segment and the devices connected to it.

Most PCs are connected to network sockets in the wall for internet access.

Device IPv4 Address MAC Address Interface Name
Ballard 130.83.162.88 00-E0-4C-1B-26-30 Ethernet 10
Blackwell 130.83.162.89 7C-C2-55-6B-98-AE eno2np0
Shaw 130.83.162.90 00-E0-4C-5B-54-88 enx00e04c5b5488

The PCs are connected with each other using a switch at the ceiling.

A dedicated switch inside Hainer connects the internal PCs of the robot.
External PCs can also connect to this network through the rear port of Hainer
