EtherNet/IP Communication Chapter 10
Assign Network Parameters via the BOOTP/ DHCP Utility
By default, the E300 relay EtherNet/IP Communication Module is DHCP
Enabled. The BOOTP/DHCP utility is a standalone program that is located in
the BOOTPDHCP Server folder accessed from the Start menu.
This utility recognizes DHCP-enabled devices and provides an interface to
configure a static IP address for each device. To assign network parameters via the
BOOTP/DHCP utility, perform this procedure:
1. Execute the BOOTP/DHCP software.
2. Choose Tool >Network Settings.
3. If appropriate for the network, type the subnet mask, gateway address,
pri
mary/secondary server addresses, and domain name in their respective
fields.
4. Click OK.
The Request History panel displays the hardware addresses of modules
issui
ng BOOTP or DHCP requests.
5. Double-click the MAC address of the module to be configured.
NOTE: The MAC address is printed underneath the sliding front cover of the
E300 relay EtherNet/IP Communication Module. The format of the hardware
address resembles: 00-0b-db-14-55-35
Before starting the BOOTP/DHCP utility, make sure you have the hardware MAC
ID of the module, which is printed on the front of the E300 relay EtherNet/IP
Communication Module. The MAC ID has a format similar to: 00-0b-db-14-55-
