Information About Configuring CIP
The Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) is an industrial protocol for industrial automation applications. It is supported by
Open DeviceNet Vendors Association (ODVA), an organization that supports network technologies based upon CIP such
as DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, CIP Safety and CIP Sync.
Previously known as Control and Information Protocol, CIP encompasses a comprehensive suite of messages and
services for the collection of manufacturing automation applications - control, safety, synchronization, motion,
configuration and information. CIP allows users to integrate these manufacturing applications with enterprise-level
Ethernet networks and the Internet.
