Dynamic DHCP - obtains an IP address from a DHCP server

Network Interface

Field

Description

IP Address

The IP address identifies each node on the IP network (or
system of connected networks). Each TCP/IP node on a
network (including the Ethernet module) must have a unique IP
address.
This value must match the IP address entered on the General
Tab of the Module Properties dialog box in RSLogix 5000.

Subnet Mask

Subnet addressing is an extension of the IP address scheme
that lets a site use a single net ID for multiple physical networks.
Routing outside of the site continues by dividing the IP address
into a net ID and a host ID via the class. Inside a site, the subnet
mask is used to redivide the IP address into a custom net ID
portion and host ID portion. This field is set to 0.0.0.0 by default.

Gateway Address

A gateway connects individual physical networks into a system
of networks. When a node needs to communicate with a node
on another network, a gateway transfers the data between the
two networks. The following figure shows gateway G connecting
Network 1 with Network 2.
