This chapter provides instructions and information for setting up the adapter.
For a list of E3 Plus or 825-P parameters, refer to the appropriate user manual.
For definitions of terms in this chapter, refer to the
Glossary .
Configuration Tools The adapter does not have any parameters that need to be configured. The only
items that need to be configured are the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway
Address. This can be done only with a BOOTP Server.
Using BOOTP By default, the adapter is configured so that you can set its IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway address by using a BOOTP utility. You can select from a
variety of BOOTP utilities. These instructions use the Rockwell Automation
BOOTP Server, version 2.3 or later, a free standalone program that incorporates
the functionality of standard BOOTP utilities with a graphical interface. It is
available from

and more information.
