Adapter Names, Aliases, and Groups
Setting Adapter Names and Aliases in the Windows-Based Programming Software
This section does not apply to the Series 90-30 CPU374, because it uses the rack and slot as its
adapter name and does not support aliases for remote network adapters.
Configuring the Ethernet Interface Adapter Name
If an Ethernet Interface will be used in Ethernet Global Data exchanges, you must specify an
adapter name for the Interface. When you define an Ethernet Global Data exchange, you will use
the adapter name to specify which Ethernet Interface will produce the exchange.
Refer to the installation chapter for details on how to configure the adapter name for your
particular Ethernet Interface.
Setting Aliases for Remote Network Adapters
If a remote network adapter, such as an Ethernet Interface or a device running the Host
Communications Drivers, will be used in Ethernet Global Data exchanges and you want to use
local name table name resolution, you must locally associate an alias with the remote network
adapter’s IP address. When you define an Ethernet Global Data exchange, you will use this alias
to specify which network adapter will consume the exchange.
To assign an alias for a remote network adapter:
1. From Hardware Configuration go to the Edit menu, choose Rack Operations, and select
Name Resolution (or click the right mouse button and choose Name Resolution from the pop-
up menu).
2. In the Name Resolution Table dialog box, click the Aliases tab.
3. Click the Add Entry button.
4. In the Alias field, type the name you want to use to refer to the remote network adapter.
5. Click the IP Address field and type the IP address of the remote network adapter, then click
the OK button.
