Dear All,
I'd like to ask whether it is possible to connect 2 PLCs (both have EtherNet/IP capability) through a router.
Here is the case :
- We have 3 machines each with Compact Logix AB PLC.
- We need to retrieve data from each Compact Logix AB PLC, to an Omron NX PLC via EtherNet/IP Protocol
- The problem is, currently each of the Compact Logix PLC has same IP addresses, since they are OEM machines installed with no integration in mind before.
- The OEM & customer, doesn't allow us to change the IP address of the PLC.
- The solution we could think of is to do NAT with router, the thing is we are not really sure whether EtherNet/IP could be translated by NAT.
Thank you
