  • Page 26: Configuration Requirements

    Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network Configuration Before you can use your adapter, you must configure its IP address, its subnet mask, and, optionally, a gateway address. You can use the Rockwell BootP Requirements utility, version 2.3 or later, to perform the configuration. You can also use a DHCP server or the network address switches to configure these parameters.

  • Page 27: Gateway Address

    Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network Gateway Address This section applies to multi-network systems. If you have a single network system, refer to the next section. The Gateway Address is the default address of a network. It provides a single domain name and point of entry to the site.

  • Page 28: Subnet Mask

    Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network Subnet Mask The subnet mask is used for splitting IP networks into a series of subgroups, or subnets. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up with the IP address to turn part of the Host ID address field into a field for subnets Take Network 2 (a Class B network) in the previous EXAMPLE example and add another physical network.
