4.  Select menu Industrial Protocol -> Ethernet/IP 
5.  Select Enable option and click Activate to enable Ethernet/IP. 
With EtherNet/IP enabled, IGMP Snooping and IGMP Query functions will be enabled automatically 
to be properly integrated in Rockwell systems for multicast Implicit (I/O) Messaging. 
Ethernet/IP functionality is implemented in firmware version 3.3.x and later. 
If you use a managed Switch with firmware version 2.x you can update the firmware to latest 
version 3.3.x. Your hardware already is capable to run the industrial protocols.   
By factory default the Ethernet/IP functionality is disabled (all Weidmüller managed 
Switches). EtherNet/IP functionality can only be enabled, if Profinet functionality is 
disabled.
