4-2 Configuring the 1756-ENBT Module
Using the Rockwell
BootP Utility
The Rockwell BootP utility is a stand alone program that incorporates
the functionality of standard BootP software with a user friendly
graphical interface. It is located in the Utils directory on the
RSLogix 5000 installation CD. The 1794-AENT adapter must have
BootP enabled (factory default) to use the utility.
To configure your adapter using the BootP utility, perform the
following steps:
1. Run the BootP software. In the BOOTP Request History panel
you will see the hardware addresses of devices issuing BootP
requests.
2. Double-click on the hardware address of the device you want to
configure. You will see the New Entry pop-up window with the
device’s Ethernet Address (MAC).
3. Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway you want to
assign to the device, and click on OK.
