Introduction
Use the Switch properties to perform these tasks:
NOTE: The Ethernet communication module supports only the Ethernet II frame type.
Access the Switch Properties
View the Switch properties for the BMENOC0301/11 module:
Step
Action
1
Open the DTM Browser and view the Channel Properties for the module.
2
Expand (+) the Channel Properties to see the Switch page.
3
Select the Switch page to see the configurable properties.
NOTE: The Ethernet communications module supports only the Ethernet II frame type.
Properties
Configure Switch properties to conform to your application:
Column
Description
Port
This read-only column shows the Ethernet ports that are connected to the module’s internal switch (ETH 1, ETH 2, etc.) and the backplane port.
Enabled
Scroll to enable (Yes) or disable (No) a port.
NOTE: When you enable IPsec, the DTM automatically disables the backplane Ethernet port on the BMENOC0301/11. This isolates the IPsec network (control room network) from the device network.
Baud Rate
Select a baud rate for the enabled port (see below).
NOTE: When you disable the backplane port, the BMENOC0301/11 does not manage the DIO equipment on the device network. It can only support an isolated DIO network.
The baud rate for the enabled backplane port is 100 Mbits/sec Full duplex.
Select a baud rate for an enabled Ethernet port (ETH 1, ETH 2, etc.):
NOTE: Schneider Electric recommends the default baud rate (Auto 10/100Mbits/sec). With this setting, connected devices perform auto-negotiation and thereby determine the fastest common transmission rate and duplex mode.
