Hey y'all,

I have a 5069-L306ER processor and have the IP address on A1 set. However A2 doesn't seem to talk to anything. I tried setting an IP address for it within the same subnet and get an error saying there is IP overlap.

All I want is for both A1 and A2 interfaces to be on the same network so that I can connect to both of them from the same IP.

How do I accomplish this?
 
In dual IP mode the 5069 L series both ethernet ports must be set to different subnets. They cannot be on the same subnet.
From the manual at https://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/literature/documents/um/5069-um001_-en-p.pdf

Dual-IP mode lets you connect ports A1 and A2 to separate networks. In this
mode, port A1 can connect to an enterprise-level network or a device-level
network. Port A2 can only connect to a device-level network.
In this mode, each port requires its own network configuration. For more
information on how to configure the Ethernet ports when the controller uses
Dual-IP mode, see Configure the EtherNet/IP Modes on page 136.
You must avoid overlapping IP address ranges when you configure the
Ethernet ports in Dual-IP mode. For more information, see Overlapping
