Hi all,
I'm trying to setup Ethernet messaging.
The following describes it very well:

I have the following setup though. 4 PLC controllers and one Ethernet card in the same rack (S0 - PLC0, S1 - PLC1, S2 - PLC2, S3 - PLC3, S4 - ENT). If I just point the message path to the PLC, they will communicate over the backplane.
Is it possible for them to communicate over Ethernet? (I know it will probably slower. Experiment)
eg. PLC0 read from PLC1 (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - IP address)
1,4,2,xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,1,1
