1769-L30ER network question

Chris K · May 28, 2020

Hi all, I have a standalone system processor 1769-L30ER and IP starting on 192. I want to add a network card to the system that I will be able to connect it with big plant network IP10.... to do that all I need is 1769-AENTR? Thanks in advance!

A 1769-AENTR is a module to connect IO to the processor, not to connect to a network.

I understand that. I may have not explained clear what i want, my bad. I need to connect my standalone system with class C IP address to class A IP address network.

Something like the Stratix 8000 from Allen Bradley would work nicely.

Just use a Nat

NAT is the way to go.

To be clear, you cannot add an additional Ethernet module to those CompactLogix controllers. janner_10 and widelto are recommending installing something like the 1783-NATR.

+1 for the 1783-NATR. We use them. Easy to configure.

Yup' the 1783-NATR is the simplest and most effective way to do this.

It will give one or more (up to 32) of the "192.168.1.x" IP addresses on your machine LAN an equivalent "10.x.y.z" address on the enterprise network, while allowing all of the internal devices to talk to one another directly.

It even works with the "Device Level Ring" fault tolerant networking architecture that the -L30ER controller supports as well.
