Chapter 3 Configure the Adapter for Your EtherNet/IP Network
Two bits of the Class B host ID are used to extend the network ID. Each unique
combination of bits in the part of the Host ID where subnet mask bits are 1
specifies a different physical network.
The new configuration is:
A second network with Hosts D and E was added. Gateway G2 connects
Network 2.1 with Network 2.2.
Hosts D and E will use Gateway G2 to communicate with hosts not on
Network 2.2.
Hosts B and C will use Gateway G to communicate with hosts not on
Network 2.1.
When B is communicating with D, G (the configured Gateway for B) will route
the data from B to D through G2.
