5.2 PRODUCT SETUP
d) NETWORK
As outlined in the previous section, when using more than one Ethernet port, configure each to belong to a different net-
work or subnet using the IP addresses and mask. Configure the network IP and subnet settings before configuring the rout-
ing settings.

The IP addresses are used with the DNP, Modbus/TCP, IEC 61580, IEC 60870-5-104, TFTP, HTTP, and PRP protocols.

• Ports 2 and 3 use the port 2 MAC address, IP address, and mask
• The configuration fields for IP address and mask on port 3 are hidden
• Port 3 is in standby mode and does not actively communicate on the Ethernet network but monitors its link to the Mul-
tilink switch. If port 2 detects a problem with the link, communications is switched to Port 3. Port 3 is, in effect, acting as
a redundant or backup link to the network for port 2. Once port 2 detects that the link between itself and the switch is
