ENI/ENIW Configuration (Nodes 241 to 254)
This chapter describes configuration methods and parameters. It is
arranged as follows:

Redirector software (for series D only)
• a write message from the Allen-Bradley controller to node
address 250 via the RS-232 port
• a BOOTP server over Ethernet (BOOTP configuration is
described in Appendix B of this manual)
• a DHCP server over Ethernet (once configured for DHCP)
ENI/ENIW Configuration
Utility The ENI/ENIW Configuration Utility is free software designed for
configuring the ENI/ENIW. It is available for download from the
Downloads page of any MicroLogix controller at
www.ab.com/micrologix.
The Com Port Redirector software, which allows ENI/ENIW
configuration over Ethernet, is also available for download from
www.ab.com/micrologix.
This section provides information on how to:
• Make configuration selections using the Configuration Utility.
• Use the Configuration Utility over RS-232.
