Ethernet Services

Introduction

This topic introduces the different services available via the BMXNOR0200H module:

Support of Modbus TCP messaging
Support of DNP3 NET and IEC 60870-104 protocols
Built-in HTTP server
Other supported IP protocols:
- NTP client
- FTP client / server
- BootP client, DHCP / FDR client
- SNMP agent
- SMTP client
- SOAP / XML server

Modbus TCP Messaging

This service allows the exchange of data between devices supporting Modbus over TCP/IP.

NMT

The NMT (Network ManagemenT) protocol provides services for network initialization, diagnostic and control, and also device status control.

NTP

The NMT (Network Time Protocol) is a protocol used for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems.The time synchronization service establishes time accuracy among devices clocks over a Ethernet network.

FTP

The FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is the World Wide Web’s file transfer protocol.

BootP

bootstrap protocol. A UDP/IP protocol that allows an Internet node to obtain its IP parameters based on its MAC address.

DHCP

The DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) is a TCP/IP protocol that allows network devices (DHCP clients) to obtain their IP addresses from a DHCP server through a request to the server.

FDR

The FDR (fast device replacement) service offers a method of handling device replacement without disrupting the system nor interrupting service.

SNMP

The SNMP (simple network management protocol) is a UDP/IP standard protocol used to monitor and manage nodes on an IP network. The supports both the MIB II and the Transparent Ready Private MIB.

SMTP

The SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) is a transmission protocol for sending e-mail. SMTP messages are usually retrieved from a server with an e-mail client (such as POP or IMAP).

SOAP / XML server

The SOAP (Single Object Access Protocol) carried via the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) channel.
