Setting the Attributes of a Node/Network

After users deploy the nodes in the NWCONFIG window, the information about the nodes will put above the
nodes. The information includes PLC names and node numbers. The attributes of the ports connected to
networks are also displayed. If a port is an RS-485 port, a station address will be displayed. If a port is an
Ethernet port, an IP address will be displayed. The information about a port will be shown if the port is
connected to a network. If a port is not connected to any network, no information about the port will be shown.
Besides, if a port of a network module is connected to a network, the information about the slot in which the
network module is installed, and the information about the backplane on which the network module is installed
will be shown.
In addition to the information about the nodes, the network numbers assigned to the networks and the network
types of the networks are shown. If a network is an Ethernet network, the subnet mask assigned to the ports
connected to the network will be shown.
If the ports connected to an Ethernet network are not in the same domain, or are not assigned the same subnet
mask, a warning sign will appear. If the ports connected to an Ethernet network are not assigned the same
subnet mask, the strictest subnet mask will be shown.
The ports connected to the Ethernet
network are not assigned the same
subnet mask.
