Using the Rockwell BOOTP Utility
The Rockwell BOOTP utility is a standalone program that incorporates the 
functionality of standard BOOTP software with a user-friendly graphical 
interface. It is located in the Utils directory on the 
RSLogix 5000 installation CD. It can also be downloaded from 
www.ab.com/networks/bootp/index.html web page. The device must 
have BOOTP enabled (factory default) to use the utility.
To configure your device using the BOOTP utility:
1. Run the BOOTP software. In the BOOTP Request History panel you 
will see the hardware addresses of devices issuing BOOTP requests.
2. Double-click on the hardware address of the device you want to 
configure. You will see the New Entry pop-up window with the 
device's Ethernet Address (MAC).
3. Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway you want to assign 
to the device, and click on OK.
The device will be added to the Relation List, displaying the Ethernet 
Address (MAC) and corresponding IP Address, Subnet Mask, and 
Gateway (if applicable).
