Conditions for Using
Communications
Applications
Communications applications can be used over the Internet under the follow-
ing conditions:
■ FINS Communications Service
• A device such as a personal computer (a FINS application, including the
CX-Programmer) can connect online and communicate over the Internet
with an EtherNet/IP Unit or built-in EtherNet/IP port that has a global
address.
• FINS/TCP is recommended as the FINS communications service
method.
FINS/TCP is more reliable than FINS/UDP in terms of communications
errors involving IP routers.
• The IP address table method is used as the IP address conversion
method of the EtherNet/IP Unit or built-in EtherNet/IP port.
• The TCP port number to be used for FINS/TCP cannot be used if prohib-
ited by a firewall in the communications path.
■ Explicit Message Communications Service
• A device such as a personal computer (a CIP application including the
Network Configurator) can connect online and communicate over the
Internet with an EtherNet/IP Unit or built-in EtherNet/IP port that has a
global address.
