Software
Introduction
After you complete Express Setup, you can manage the switch by using the
RSLogix 5000 software.
EtherNet/IP CIP Interface
Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 switches contain an EtherNet/IP network
interface. EtherNet/IP is an industrial automation network specification
maintained by the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association (ODVA). It uses the
Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) for its application layer, and
TCP/UDP/IP for its transport and network layers. This interface is accessible
via any of the switch's Ethernet ports by using the IP address of the switch.
