Hi
I was hoping someone here could help me with a networking question. I have a customer that would like to connect all thier equipment on a network. They have several compact logix and one control logix as well as a few slc's. There are many hmi's and remote I/o modules as well. I would like to connect everything to one central plc for data collection. The problem is the ip addresses are all over the map and in not any particular order. Is there a way to have devices on different networks send and recieve data without changing all the ip addresses. For example...one machine has 12 ip addresses in one group (192.168.10.xx) and another has 8 (172.100.0.xx).
