EtherNet/IP Communications Chapter 8
Assign Network Parameters via the BOOTP/ DHCP Utility
By default, the E300 Electronic Overload 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,
pr
imary/secondary server addresses, and domain name in their respective
fields.
4. Cl
ick OK.
The
Request History panel displays the hardware addresses of modules
issu
ing 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 Electronic Overload Relay EtherNet/IP Communication Module. The
format of the hardware address resembles: 00-0b-db-14-55-35
IMPORTANT
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 Electronic Overload
Relay EtherNet/IP Communication Module. The MAC ID has a format similar to:
00-0b-db-14-55-35.
