I'm testing it with my company's 2 networks. I've come across some difficulties in establishing a connection with RSLinx Classic to a 1769-元5E through a TeamViewer VPN. The onsite operators and I end up collaborating just by opening up a Notepad session and writing notes to one another. I've recently been using remote desktop services via GoToMyPC and TeamViewer, and I admit I'm very spoiled to have all the software tools and project files local to the control system. Ethernet Devices driver in RSLinx Classic. HTTP from a web browser, entering the IP address of the 1756-ENxT module.Ĥ. TCPing from the command line, using TCP Port 44818.ģ. When troubleshooting this sort of connectivity, my tools are, in order:Ģ.
In general it does not work through a VPN, so use the Ethernet Devices driver and append ':EIP' to the IP address of the 1756-EN2T so that RSLinx Classic doesn't have to probe to figure out the protocol and device type.
The EtherNet/IP driver in RSLinx Classic uses a broadcast packet to browse. Maybe the VPN gives you an IP address that isn't on the same subnet as the -EN2T modules, so they need to be configured to talk via a router to your network. It's possible that this is a problem with the default gateway on the 1756-EN2T modules.
