The invention relates to a method for operating a network (2), which has a plurality of devices (6, 8, 10), wherein a serial number (16, 18, 20) comprising a plurality of bit positions (22, 24, 26, 28), with a bit position to be checked first and a bit position to be checked last, is associated with each device (6, 8, 10) of the network (2), wherein each bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) has one of two possible bit values, wherein the devices (6, 8, 10) are separated during a check on the basis of the serial numbers (16, 18, 20) of the devices, wherein a sequence according to which the bit positions (22, 24, 26, 28) are checked and a counter having a value k are defined, wherein the check is started at the bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) to be checked first, - wherein for a kth bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) during a first query, at least one participating device (6, 8, 10) is asked if the kth bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) thereof has the first bit value of two possible bit values, and wherein for the kth bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) during a second query, at least one participating device (6, 8, 10) is asked if the kth bit position (22, 24, 26, 28) thereof has the second bit value of two possible bit values. |
