13. Set up a router from your external FT channel to your SmartServer's internal IP-70 channel. To create the router, follow the steps below. You can skip any step(s) you have already completed:
    
    1. Create an RNI entry in LonWorks Interfaces control panel applet on your computer using the SmartServer IPv4 address and the port you noted from the LON Configuration page.
       
       
    2. Create an IzoT CT drawing using the RNI as the network interface.
       
       
    3. Once the drawing is created, it will have the RNI connected to the FT channel.
       
       
    4. Create a new IP-70 channel.
       
       
    5. Create a router between the FT channel and the IP-70 channel.
       
       
    6. Commission the router using the Service/Connect button for the specific U60 router on the System configuration page.
       
       
    7. Create the required BACnet FT device, attached to the FT channel, creating a new device template as you proceed.
       
       
    8. Commission the device, loading the application as required.
