EtherAnt II User’s Manual 

3.4 Configuration 

The 

Configuration 

screen features three buttons: 

Ethernet Configuration, Serial Configuration, 

and 

Wireless Configuration

 

Ethernet Configuration (Figure 3.10) 

This screen allows you to specify the parameters associated with the EC’s local Ethernet connection. 

Figure 3.10 – Ethernet Configuration 

 

 
 
Controller Name –

 This field sets a user-friendly name you wish to assign to the EtherAnt II (up to 32 

characters). 

 
IP Address –

 This field sets the IP address used for both local and wireless Ethernet communication. 

 
Subnet Mask –

 This field sets the Subnet Mask used for both local and wireless Ethernet communication. 

 
Gateway – 

This field sets the IP Address of the Gateway (router or firewall).  You will need to enter the IP 

address of your gateway, particularly if you plan to use the EC to access computers or other EtherAnt II 
units beyond your router or firewall. 

 
MAC Address – 

This read-only property

 

displays the MAC Address of the EC you are currently 

connected to. 

 
Automatically Search for Unknown Ethernet Addresses (ARP) – 

This option allows to turn on/off ARP 

messages or use a predefined (default) MAC Address for unknown routes. This is useful for the handling 
of unknown IP packet routes. 
 
 

Serial Configuration 

Although there is an option for Serial configuration, the EtherAnt does not use a serial interface. All 
screens for Serial settings should be ignored since they are not applicable. The Client Manager grays this 
option out.
