Traceroute
In this menu, you can send traceroutes from your switch to other devices in your network. You can use this
to check via which devices the communication between the
PROmesh P20
and the end device is
transmitted and how much time is needed per node. Enter the
IP address
of the device for which you want
to check the connection with the switch.
3.5.7 Leakage current
The leakage current monitoring (Figure 11) makes it possible to permanently record and evaluate the sum
of all shield currents of the PROFINET lines that are dissipated via the device into the equipotential bonding
system. The corresponding spectrum with the respective frequency components is specified for this in
addition to the current value. Using this function, the PROmesh series also offers mechanisms for detecting
EMC interference or couplings.

Downloading the frequency spectrum after a threshold value was exceeded
Switching the axes between a decimal and a logarithmic scaling

3.5.8 PROFINET
The abbreviation PROFINET stands for Process Field Network and designates the open Industrial Ethernet
standard for automation.
The device has been developed as PROFINET IO Device for the connection of distributed periphery to a
PROFINET controller and supports Conformance Class B. You can configure the port settings for DCP on
this page and download the configuration file.
Port settings:
For every port, you can specify whether it supports the Discovery and Configuration Protocol
(DCP). By means of the DCP, the addresses and names are distributed to the individual devices
in a PROFINET IO system.
