RSTP Troubleshooting for BACnet/IP Controllers

Issue BACnet/IP controllers are not configured in RSTP Mode by default, therefore must be configured during installation. Having RSTP Mode disabled by default allows one to connect BACnet/IP controllers to any switch, even with port security configured to detect BPDU packets and disable the port. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation, TAC IA Series Environment Multi-purpose Controller (MP-C) Multi-purpose VAV (MP-V) Room Controller IP-IO I/A Series N4 Jace8000 SmartX IP Driver for Niagara Cause RSTP protocol requires that controllers, switches, and network architecture are configured to ensure the protocol will operate as expected.  Resolution Setting RSTP Mode for BACnet/IP Controllers ALL devices in the RSTP loop MUST BE IN RSTP MODE to function properly. This is not a huge issue because during startup you can unplug 2nd side of the loop and it will function properly in a daisy chain. Ensure the SmartX Controllers are configured correctly Configuring BACnet/IP Controller Device Settings A factory or network reset returns the RSTP setting to Disabled. Important: Whenever you change RSTP settings, the controller MUST be WARM START. If you fail to perform this restart, the BACnet/IP controller will continue communicating using its previous RSTP settings. 'Activate IP Changes' does not affect RSTP mode. Ensure the switch is configured correctly per Configuring RSTP on a Managed Switch for SmartX IP Controllers. If asked to review this for a case, please provide PSS screenshots from the switch configuration page(s).  Bridge Priority = 4096 Hello Time = 2 sec Max Age = 40  (40 is the maximum value allowed by the protocol. Default is 20) Forward Delay = 21 sec Bridge Priority Considerations Change Bridge Priority by adding 4096 as switches get further away from AS. (8192, 12288, 16384, 20480, 24576, 28672) DO NOT set the priority as 32768 or higher because that is the built-in Bridge Priority of BACnet/IP Controllers. First, configure the Root Bridge Switch (closest to the Automation Server) settings. Then, configure the additional Switches in order of increasing Bridge Priority. Plug in 2nd side of the RSTP Loop If all devices stay online, then it is working properly. Now test line breaks or controllers that are powered off. If all devices go offline and/or the switch LED is flashing rapidly, then go to RSTP Troubleshooting. Managed Switch Troubleshooting Consult the documentation or contact the vendor or manufacturer to assist with configuration for the items below. Ensure the switch is IEEE 802.1D - 2004 capable. BACnet/IP Controller Networking Term Definitions RSTP Ring mentions the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol is specified in IEEE 802.1D - 2004. Ensure the firmware is up-to-date by contacting the vendor or manufacturer or downloading it from its website. Ensure ports not participating in RSTP are configured as Edge Port, Admin port, or have STP disabled. Nomenclature for those settings on your specific managed switch may vary. Adding BACnet/IP controllers to site-managed switches, work with Local IT to add these devices to their network. They will need to work with their switch vendor/manufacturer/support group to ensure the configuration of those switches because it could be more complex than changing the minimum recommended four settings above. Also, since RSTP Protocol is limited to Max Age = 40 (hops including site switches and BACnet/IP controllers), each loop's size may be limited based on their site switch network configuration and architecture.  Determined the proper configuration (or disable) for the following features. DHCP snooping Dynamic ARP inspection Denial-of-service (DOS) mitigations BPDU Guard BPDU Filter Energy-saving settings. Similar to Wake-on-LAN: the switch had minimal traffic, so ports entered power-saving mode. When they reactivated, the AS-P had already timed out, triggering a comm loss alarm. RSTP Troubleshooting Check each BACnet/IP Controller -> Diagnostics -> Device Report to confirm in RSTP Mode MANUAL CHECKOUT Double-click MP - Diagnostics Files - Device Report It will open in the default text editor Review the Device Settings section near the bottom. In firmware 1.00.0x, the report should report RSTP Mode: Enable In firmware 2.00.0x or higher, RSTP: Enabled and RSTP Status: Operational If it reports disabled, then perform Setting RSTP Mode for BACnet IP Controllers Step 1 until RSTP is working properly. USE SEARCH & EVENTS EBO 2.x MP Device IP and Settings.xml for EBO 2.0 as it only includes MP controllers EBO 3.x SmartX Device IP and Settings.xml for EBO 3.x or higher Import attached search USE RSTP STATUS GRAPHIC IN WEBSTATION MUST BE EBO 3.1 or higher which includes ClientAPI support Frontline Fridays Episode 02 - Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) Date: 2022-11-11 Mike Botens posted the following in the thread: RSTP Status TGML dated 2022-11-09 PDF of the presentation Fusion Fridays - Session 07 ​​​​ Date: 2020-05-28 The start of the video shows the graphics page in use RSTP Status.zip is downloaded via the link below the video. Extract the TGML and drop it on the AS to import. The suggestion is to store TGML directly under the AS to help with navigation in Webstation. bind Network to the BACnet/IP network with the BACnet/IP Controllers. (You may need a second TGML page if BACnet/IP controllers are on Primary and Secondary IP) Run from web browser via WebStation because utilizes ClientAPI KNOWN ISSUES Offline controllers that are scattered are NOT an RSTP issue. Check to see if there is a possible DHCP issue by verifying controllers are still at their AUTO-IP address (IP 169.254.nnn.nnnn Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0). RSTP communications issues affect the entire RSTP loop or one contiguous group of controllers. Factory Reset or controller replacement should leave one ethernet cable unplugged until configured for RSTP per these articles: Replace a BACnet/IP Controller in an RSTP Ring Network Workflow and MP Controller Reset Modes If BACnet/IP Controller Device Report OR RSTP Graphic reports RSTP Status: Changes Pending instead of RSTP Status: Operational, disable RSTP Mode, Warm Start, re-enable RSTP Mode, Warm Start, and check again. SmartX is now SpaceLogic. KNOWN ISSUES with Firmware affecting RSTP: If Firmware 3.02.01 is installed, please upgrade to 3.02.02.

Graphic fail to load after the Enterprise Server has been running for some time

Issue At first, TGML graphics in Building Operation WorkStation load correctly and display real-time values. However, after the Enterprise Server has been running for an extended period, the graphics begin to load slowly, and values stop refreshing or updating. Restarting the Enterprise Server temporarily restores functionality, but the issue eventually reoccurs. Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Building Operation WorkStation Building Operation Enterprise Server TGML Graphics SmartConnector Cause This issue is typically caused by the behavior of a SmartConnector that: Polls values too frequently Creates a new login session for each poll instead of reusing an existing session This results in a high number of open sessions with the Enterprise Server. In the SmartConnector view, multiple active sessions can be observed. The problem tends to occur when there are more than 150 active connections, although this threshold may vary depending on the server’s processing load.     Resolution To resolve this issue, request the SmartConnector developers to: Adjust the polling rate to a more appropriate interval Reuse existing login sessions instead of creating a new one for each poll These changes will significantly reduce the number of active sessions and improve the performance and reliability of graphic updates in the Enterprise Server.   Additional Notes Monitor the number of active sessions via the SmartConnector view. Consider implementing session management best practices to avoid similar issues in future deployments.

Users intermittently unable to access through INET transitioned doors

Issue Users are intermittently unable to gain access through doors equipped with INET hardware that has been transitioned to Security Expert. When this occurs, a “Read Raw Credential Data” event is logged for the affected door, showing the correct credential was presented. Product Line EcoStruxure Security Expert Environment Security Expert INET transition sites using INET SCU controllers Cause Some sites using transitioned INET hardware continue to experience memory consumption issues with the SP-C controller. This can result in sporadic access failures at random doors, even though valid credentials are presented. Resolution Temporary Resolution Restarting the parent SP-C controller via its web interface temporarily resolves the issue by clearing the memory.  Recommended Action To avoid recurring disruptions and benefit from the full functionality and stability of Security Expert, it is strongly recommended to phase out obsolete INET hardware and replace it with native Security Expert modules.   Refer to the following product announcements for further guidance: PA-00786 – End of Commercialization: TAC I/NET Access Control PA-00971 – I/NET Access Control End of Support Update and New Hardware Refresh for Transitions “We no longer recommend continuing to use I/NET field hardware with Security Expert intelligent controllers, as it will leave end users vulnerable to disruptions and potential failures as the legacy hardware continues to age. Instead, we will focus on supporting I/NET database transition tools, aiming to streamline the transition and installation process.”

Tridium cloudConnector and cloudBackup Module Warnings in N4.15

Issue Warnings about module dependency issues with cloudConnector and cloudBackup modules. Product Line TAC IA Series Environment I/A Series N4 Enterprise Server I/A Series N4 Jace 9000 Cause Users may notice when starting up a station that the Application Director is giving warnings about module dependency issues with cloudConnector and cloudBackup modules. For most, this can be considered a nuisance warning that will not impact system function. This issue is reported by Tridium as NCCB-72056. The following warnings, or others related to the cloudBackup modules, may be observed on station startup:  Some may notice this issue's impact on the LexiconEditor. This is a separate issue reported as Tridium NCCB-72466.   Please be aware that Backup as a Service (BaaS) reached End-of-Life on December 31, 2024. Currently, Tridium offers Niagara Recover as the system of distribution (.dist) file safekeeping and management. Resolution For most users, this is just a nuisance error that can be ignored. For those using the LexiconEditor, deleting the relevant cloud modules will resolve this issue. The modules to be deleted (cloudBackup-rt.jar, cloudBackup-wb.jar, and cloudBackup-ux.jar) can be found in the C:\Niagara\Niagara-4.15.X.XX\modules folder.

Working principle of the Bond Sensor Input

Issue Will the Bond Sensor Input Channel contribute to the Door Forced and Door Ajar alarms? If so, does it have to be in conjunction with the Door Switch Input Channel? Product Line Andover Continuum Environment Continuum Access Control Products CX9900 CX9680 Continuum AC-1 IO Module  AC1A, AC1Plus ACX5720, ACX5740 CX9702 ACX781 Cause Not sure how the Bond Sensor works in relation to the Door Switch and the various Door Alarm states. Resolution BondFailure is an attribute of the Door object that represents a fault with the Bond Sensor. The way this works is if Valid Access = True and the Door Switch = Open and the Bond Sensor = Open, then BondFailure = False. If Valid Access = False or the system sees the Door Switch = Closed but the Bond Sensor = Open then you will get a BondFailure = True. This is another attribute (BondFailure) that can be monitored with an AlarmEnrollment in addition to the DoorForced and DoorAjar attributes. A Door Switch needs to be used for the Bond Sensor to operate correctly, otherwise BondFailure will always be False after a ValidAccess if there is no Door Switch value. Note: The actual value of the BondSensor attribute in the Door object may not seem to update properly if monitoring with a ListView. For this to show the correct BondSensor value make sure that the attribute Source is set to "Live" instead of the default "Database". Note2: A bond senor (usually an output from a maglock) should not be used as an alternative to a door switch, as it does not give indication of the door position.

Installing an EC/ES on another drive than the default C drive

Issue A customer would like to install an Enterprise Central(EC)  on the D drive instead of the C drive is that possible to do?   Product Line EcoStruxure Building Operation Environment Building Operation Enterprise Server Cause In this case the customer is not allowed to install any files on the C drive so all EBO files should be installed on the D drive instead. Resolution It is possible to install the EC or ES on the D drive, when installing you specify the programs and backups should be installed on the D drive instead of the C drive. And the programs and the backups are installed on the D drive as specified. But there is some files that always will be installed on the C drive:     The backup is installed at D:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric EcoStruxure as it should but we also get a S2Connect folder at C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric EcoStruxure. When installing Workstation that will be installed on D:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric EcoStruxure as the EC is installed there.

And then installing the License Administrator also add LicenseFiles folder at C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric EcoStruxure These files will always be installed on the C drive and this is not possible to change. NOTE:  If Workplace Tech Editor is being used by Workstation on the PC, the accompanying Visio installation has to be installed, per Microsoft in the C: drive.

Information about the number of socket connections Modbus TCP/IP uses to interface with other gateway / devices

Issue Does Modbus TCP/IP xDriver opens socket connection per each device or the gateway of the devices? Product Line Andover Continuum Environment NetController - CX9900, CX9940, CX9680. Continuum bCX9640 (Infinet) Continuum bCX4040 (BACnet) Cause As some Modbus TCP/IP gateways have the limitation of maximum TCP/IP connections, if Modbus TCP/IP xDriver opens a socket per modbus device and keeps it open, the gateway might run into a problem due to the limited number of socket connections. Resolution The Modbus TCP/IP xDriver opens one(1) socket connection per server not device. So for a gateway that has a number of devices, the Modbus TCP/IP xDriver only uses one(1) socket connection.

Error on login to the webClient: "Max user connections has been reached"

Issue Error on login to the webClient: "Max user connections has been reached" Product Line Andover Continuum Environment Continuum webClient Cause webClient support up to 5 users simultaneously. Resolution Make sure the key is enabled for webClient. Make sure all the DCom settings are set correctly. Make sure the IIS and WebClient software was not installed through a remote terminal service type of software. If this was done they will need to uninstall the IIS, WebClient, etc… and then go directly on the server and re-install the software. Make sure the IIS server was not rebooted through a remote terminal service application and then subsequently logged on through remote a terminal service. If this is done they will need to go directly on the IIS server and reboot it while physically on the machine. Verify how many users are actually logged on. Should not display something like 5 / 5. In this case you “have” exceeded the maximum and one user must log off. Users typically run into this on standalone systems where the key is configured for two users and the person shuts down the browser and neglects to log off. Users are NOT disconnected in this case until the 20 minute session timeout occurs. In this state the administrator can close the ACWebServerProxy dialog to disconnect ALL users with one click.
