Fdt Manager
This is the default view of the Foreign Device Table under the Link container of Ip port.
When the station operates as a BBMD (BACnet broadcast Management Device), this table lists other BACnet foreign devices that
have registered with the system database, including their IP address, time to live, and purge time. This view allows you to
manually edit the FDT, if necessary, to support devices that cannot register themselves.
