  Advantech ROS 2 Suite Install provides a consistent experience for Advantch edge platforms ( eg. Intel, ARM - NXP iMX8 and NVIDIA Jetson ). User can easy to install and set up your ROS 2 environment and quick to start your devlopment ros application ( example: AMR, AGV, Fleet Management ... ).

ROS 2 uses for communication is DDS. In DDS, the primary mechanism for having different logical networks share a physical network is known as the Domain ID. ROS 2 nodes on the same domain can freely discover and send messages to each other, while ROS 2 nodes on different domains cannot. All ROS 2 nodes use domain ID 0 by default. To avoid interference between different groups of computers running ROS 2 on the same network, a different domain ID should be set for each group.
