The models with two ports have an integrated switch. Thus, besides the connection of the equipment in
star for a concentrating element, it is also possible to make the connection in
topology equivalent to a bus.

Configuration of the Ethernet Interface
In order to configure the Ethernet interface of the communication modules, it is necessary to connect the
module to a PC to use the following software:
HMS Anybus IPconfig
This software is used to program the IP address of the module. When you execute this software, it will
automatically scan the network in order to find out which modules are connected. The modules found will be
listed, showing the information of IP address, subnet, gateway, etc. If more than a module is found, it is
necessary to make the differentiation through the MAC address indicated in the lower part of the Anybus-CC
module.
To edit this information, you just click twice on the desired module to open new window, where you can modify
these fields.
