Network Interface
Check this option to select a specific network interface to use when scanning for devices from a
computer which has more than one interface. If this option is left unchecked, all available net-
works will be scanned.
Internal DHCP Server
If a device has been set to use DHCP but there is no DHCP server on the network, the device
may not be detected by IPconfig. To recover access to the device an internal DHCP server in
IPconfig can be temporarily activated:
1.
Click the checkbox for
Internal DHCP Server
, then click
OK
. IPconfig will automatically re-
fresh the scan and list the missing device in the main window.
2.
Select the device and configure it to use static IP addressing instead of DHCP.
3.
Disable the internal DHCP server.
Do not enable the internal DHCP server if there is already an active DHCP server
on the network.

DCP (Discovery and Control Protocol)
Anybus X-gateway PROFINET IRT (2.32) supports the DCP protocol, which allows a PROFI-
NET IO Controller/Supervisor to change the network settings during runtime. If successful, this
will replace the settings currently stored in the
ethcfg.cfg
file.
