The IP address is assigned in two steps.
Ä Assign a unique system-specific name to the Gateway, using either the network configuration tool such
as SIEMENS TIA Portal, or using the MSI.designer software. In MSI.designer this is the Connection
name.
Where do you edit the connection name in MSI.designer? Open the Project structure docking window
and there click on the Controller entry right at the top. Additionally open the Properties docking win-
dow and enter the desired value there in the configuration dialog under Connection name.
Ä A (unique) system-specific name can be used by the I/O-Controller (i.e. the PLC) to assign the IP ad-
dress to the gateway now before the system is booted.
