EtherNet/IP Network
Communication

The EtherNet/IP network offers a full suite of control, configuration, and data
collection services by layering the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP
the standard Internet protocols, such as TCP/IP and UDP. This combination
of well-accepted standards provides the capability that is required to support
information data exchange and control applications.
The Compact GuardLogix 5370 controllers use socket interface transactions
and conventional communication over the EtherNet/IP network to
communicate with Ethernet devices that do not support the EtherNet/IP
application protocol.
For more information on socket interface transactions, see
page 77.
