Configure the 1734-AENT Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network 3-7
Use the Rockwell
BootP/DHCP Utility
The Rockwell BootP/DHCP 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 1734-AENT adapter must have DHCP enabled (factory default and
the network address switches set to an illegal value) 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 you want to assign to the device and click on OK.
