Which of the following is the underlying protocol for Ethernet/IP?
Which of the following is the underlying protocol for Ethernet/IP?
EtherNet/IP is based on the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP). CIP is a media-independent protocol used in various industrial networks, including DeviceNet, CompoNet, and ControlNet. It provides a standardized mechanism for representing data, sending messages, and defining common device types, making it suitable for broad industrial applications over different communication media, including Ethernet.
EtherNet/IP is based on the Control and Information Protocol (CIP) used in DeviceNet, CompoNet™, and ControlNet™. CIP provides a common, standardized mechanism for representing data, sending messages, and defining common device types for the component technologies that use the CIP core protocol. CIP is a media-independent protocol, which means that CIP messages can be sent over any communication media including CAN, Ethernet, and even something like FireWire. IC32M page 376
