Configure the 1734-AENT Adapter
for Your EtherNet/IP Network
What This
Chapter Contains
Before you can use your 1734-AENT adapter in an EtherNet/IP network you
must configure it with an IP address, Subnet mask, and optional Gateway
address. This chapter describes these configuration requirements and the
procedures for providing them. There are several way you can do this:
• Using the Rockwell BootP utility, version 2.3 or greater, that ships with
RSLogix 5000 or RSLinx software. You can also use this utility to
reconfigure a device whose IP address must be changed.
• Using a third party DHCP server.
• Using the Network Address thumbwheel switches.
• Having your network administrator configure the adapter via the
network server.
The following table lists where to find specific information within this chapter.
