What This Chapter Contains
Before using your adapter in an EtherNet/IP network, configure it with an IP
address, subnet mask, and optional Gateway address. This chapter describes
these configuration requirements and the procedures for providing them. Here
are ways you can do this:
• Use the Rockwell BootP utility, version 2.3 or later, that ships with
RSLogix 5000 or RSLinx software.
You can also use this utility to reconfigure a device with an IP address
you must change.
• Use a third party DHCP server.
• Use the Network Address thumbwheel switch.
• Have your network administrator configure the adapter via the network
server.
See the table for a list of where to find information in this chapter.
