Section 5 Ethernet configuration tool
5.1 Introduction
GUID-27895183-D8EC-48B1-8B42-6C3B469AE67B v2
The Ethernet configuration tool (ECT) is a configuration tool that provides the
possibility to configure Access points, Merging units and Routes in a single place.
The tool increases security and easy of use as it offers an overview of all
configurations related to Ethernet communication, such as operation, IP addresses,
redundant communications and which protocols allowed to run on the individual
access points.
ECT validates the values entered for the IP-adress and the default gateway in the
Access point-tab as well as the settings in the Merging unit-tab. For more
information refer to the Application manual.

Access points
The Ethernet configuration tool consists of one tab for access point, one for
merging unit and one for routing. The changes done during the session will be
bolded until the tool is closed.
The protocols cannot be activated or deactivated from ECT, the tool
only controls which protocols are allowed to run on the access
point. For information on how to activate or deactivate the
communication protocols, see the communication protocol manuals
or cyber security deployment guideline.
To configure the access points and merging units in offline mode, first hardware
configuration should be selected in Hardware Configuration Tool (HWT). In online
mode all available access points and merging units will appear in ECT.
