Set the IP Address for Ethernet Communication
Connect the 1752-L24BBBE controller to the network via a 100 Mbps Ethernet
switch, which will help reduce collisions and lost packets, and increase bandwidth.
The 1752-L24BBBE controller is shipped with BOOTP enabled for setting the IP
address. You can use any commercially available BOOTP server. If you do not have
BOOTP Server capabilities on your network, download the free Rockwell
Automation BOOTP server from
http://www.ab.com/networks/bootp.html
.
To set the IP address by using the Rockwell Automation BOOTP utility, follow
these steps.
1. Run the BOOTP utility.
2. Double-click the hardware address of the device you want to configure.

to the new communication rate. Mixed communication rates produce communication
errors.
