Connect to Different EtherNet/IP Network Levels Chapter 6
Port B1
When you connect port B1 to a device-level network, you only configure the
parameters that are listed earlier in this section. The EtherNet/IP mode choice
does not impact port B1 use.
EtherNet/IP Modes with
Ports A1 and A2
The EtherNet/IP mode choice determines if you connect port A1 and port A2
to the same device-level network or different device-level networks. The
following EtherNet/IP modes are available:
•
Dual-IP Mode
•
Linear/DLR Mode
Dual-IP Mode
Dual-IP mode lets you connect port A1 and port A2 connect to separate
device-level networks, that is, different subnets. The CompactLogix 5480
controller uses Dual-IP mode by default.
In this mode, each port requires its own network configuration. For more
information on how to configure the Ethernet ports when the controller uses
Dual-IP mode, see
Configure the EtherNet/IP Modes on page 136.
