Lab 1: Stratix 5700 and 8000 Hardware Familiarization
The Stratix 5700 Managed Ethernet Switch (1783-BMS10CGN) is equipped with eight Fast Ethernet copper ports plus two
combo Gigabit (copper or SFP) ports. This switch is equipped with full firmware and has Network Address Translation (NAT)
capability.
The combo slots which support SFP support multi and single mode fiber. Rockwell Automation approved (Gigabit or 100 Mbps)
Ethernet SFP modules can be used to establish fiber-optic connections to other switches.
SFPs (Small Form factor Pluggable) are small modules that allow you to select from a variety of fiber optic
transceivers for the switch. You will need to select different SFPs depending on the speed and type of fiber
you are planning to use.
8 of 91
The Stratix 5700 can be managed via the Device Manager Web interface for configuration, troubleshooting and monitoring.
Using this software, real-time information can be viewed. In addition to the Device Manager, the switch can also be managed via
the Studio 5000 environment after Express Setup on the switch is complete.
Through Device Manager, a Front Panel view of the Stratix 5700 can be observed where switch components are color-coded to
indicate state of the switch. An existing fault or error condition can be observed to match the front of the physical switch. System
LEDs show status indications similar to the Stratix 8000.
A complete description of the System LEDs can be found in the Device Manager and the Hardware Manual
(Publication 1783-UM004).
The Stratix 5700 Managed Ethernet Switch (1783-BMS10CGN) follows this port numbering convention:
9 of 91
Stratix 8000 Base Module
There are two power connectors on the top left of the switch.
You can connect the switch to two separate power sources for redundancy. Additional connections on the power
connectors provide hardwired contacts for major and minor alarms.
The Express Setup button is located below the power connections. Express Setup allows you to easily configure the
switch for EtherNet/IP networks.
The Console port is a serial connection available on all Cisco hardware. The console port allows direct access to the
switch via Ciscos Command Line Interface (CLI)
10 of 91
The System LEDs are next to the console port. They give an indication of the state of the switch.
LED Description
EIP Mod Indicates the status of the switch
EIP Net Indicates the status of the I/O connection to the switch
Setup Indicates the switch is in Express Setup Mode
Power A Indicates the status of power connection A
Power B Indicates the status of power connection B
A complete description of the System LEDs can be found in the Device Manager and the Hardware Manual
(Publication 1783-UM002).
The copper Gigabit Ethernet port support speeds of 10, 100, and 1000 mbps.
SFPs (Small Form factor Pluggable) are small modules that allow you to select from a variety of fiber optic
transceivers for the switch. You will need to select different SFPs depending on the speed and type of fiber
you plan on using.
You must use the Rockwell Automation ruggedized industrial SFPs in the Stratix 8000.
The 10/100 Base-TX ports are located on the right side of the switch. The Stratix 8000 is available with either four or
eight 10/100 ports on the base module. The eight port version is used in this lab.
The grounding lug is located at the lower right corner of the switch.
11 of 91
2. Look at the right side of the switch
This cover can be removed to install optional expansion modules. There are two expansion modules available:
8 port 10/100 Base-TX (See Picture Below)
8 port 100 Base-FX fiber optic module (See Picture Below)
The switch can support up to two expansion modules. You can only have one 100 Base-FX fiber optic
expansion module install in the switch.
The Stratix 8000 uses the Cisco Internetworking Operating System (IOS). At boot-up the switch copies the
configuration and IOS into RAM. The Compact Flash card can be removed while the switch is running.
However, you will not be able to save the configuration or boot the switch without the Compact Flash card
installed.
12 of 91
Stratix 8000 Port Numbering
The Stratix 8000 uses Ciscos standard port naming convention. Each port name has three parts; the type of interface, the
module number, and the port number.
Port Name Interface Type Module Port
gi1/1 Gigabit Ethernet 1 1
fa1/1 Fast Ethernet 1 1
fa1/5 Fast Ethernet 1 5
fa2/3 Fast Ethernet 2 3
fa3/7 Fast Ethernet 3 7
The ports are numbered from top to bottom and left to right. The port numbering for each interface type always starts at one.
Each switch has a port gi1/1 and a port fa1/1. The base unit is module one. The first expansion module is number two and the
second expansion module is number three.
You may see the terms port and interface used interchangeably. If you are configuring the switch using
the Studio 5000 or Device Manger the term port is used. If you are configuring the switch via the CLI the
term interface is used.

Lab 2: Configuring a Stratix 5700 Switch and reviewing its Add-On-Profile (AOP) and Controller
Tags.
To save time the project and tags have already been created for you.
Adding the Stratix 5700 to the I/O Configuration Tree of Studio 5000.
In this section, you will add the Stratix 5700 to the I/O Tree.
1. Select the Studio 5000 project EIP_Basic_Line_START.acd by browsing through the Logix Files Folder found on
the Desktop: Logix Files\ EIP_Basic_Line_START.acd
2. REVIEW: In the I/O Configuration tree, you will notice a few modules have already been inserted for you. These
modules were inserted to save time and will be used in future labs. You will do the same exercise when
inserting the Stratix 5700 switch. Why are we configuring two different switches in the architecture? Lets say
the ControlLogix controller happens to be in a different cabinet than the I/O. Each cabinet has its own switch
and you want to read diagnostic status from each switch, hence the need to configure two different switches
in the Studio 5000 I/O Configuration tree.
14 of 91
3. In the I/O tree, right click on Ethernet below the Local 1756-EN2TR module, and select New Module.
4. Under the Catalog tab, uncheck all modules, then re-check Communications and Select the 1783-BMS10CGN
Stratix 5700 10 Port Managed Switch module and Click Create.
15 of 91
5. The Add-on Profile window will open. Populate the appropriate data as seen below.
Name: Stratix_5700
IP Address: 192.168.1.2
16 of 91
7. Make sure you are at Revision 4.1, and follow next steps before hitting ok. If you are not at Revision 4.1, please
change to Revision 4.1.
The default RPI for the Stratix 5700 is 1000ms and it is set to use a unicast connection.
17 of 91
You should now see both the Stratix 5700 (1783-BMS10CGN) and Stratix 8000 modules in the I/O configuration tree.
18 of 91
16. Using the AB_ETH-1 driver, select the 1756-EN2TR module at address 192.168.1.20, then drill down to the (1756-L75
LOGIX5575) in slot 0, Click once to Highlight.
19 of 91
18. Click Download.
19. If a separate window did not pop up and ask you if you wanted to go into Run Mode, Click the drop-down in the online
bar and select Run Mode.
When the I/O light is solid green, this means you are connected to all devices in the I/O tree.
20 of 91
2. Select the Module Info tab.
This tab shows the details of the IP configuration of the switch. There are also fields that allow you to enter contact names
or the location of the equipment.
21 of 91
4. Select the Switch Status tab.
This tab show detailed status information about the switch such as Up Time, IOS Release, and Active Alarms.
This tab allows you to enable/disable ports and manually configure the speed and duplex on the ports. If the port is set to
auto-negotiate it will display the current speed and duplex. If you would like to manually set speed and duplex, you can
uncheck Auto-Negotiate here. However, for the purpose of this lab, keep Auto-Negotiate enabled.
22 of 91
6. Select the Smartports & VLANs tab.
This tab allows you to assign Smartport roles to the ports. Smartports are port configurations that have been optimized by
Rockwell Automation and Cisco for EtherNet/IP networks. The following Smartports are currently available:
Automation Device
Desktop for Automation
Switch for Automation
Router for Automation
Phone for Automation
Wireless for Automation
Multiport Automation Device
Virtual Desktop for Automation
Several of the Smartports have built-in MAC address security. When a device is connected to the port the
switch will add the MAC address to the security table. When the device is disconnected, i.e. replaced, the
switch will automatically learn the new MAC address and add it to the table.
23 of 91
You will notice that ports have already been configured for this lab. For example:
If the smart port configuration is different, click the Refresh button. If the smart port configuration is still different
please call the lab instructor over to correct this discrepancy.
Port thresholds prevent devices from flooding your network with excess traffic. You can limit the broadcast, unicast,
and multicast traffic that can be sent by the device connected to the port. The thresholds can be set to packets per
second, bits per second, or percent utilization. If the threshold is exceeded, the switch will drop traffic below the
specified value.
24 of 91
8. Select the Port Status tab.
The Port Status tab shows you the alarm states and utilization of the ports.
The Port Diagnostics window shows detailed Ethernet counters and errors for the port.
25 of 91
10. Close the Port Diagnostics window.
Scroll to the right in the row of tabs, and select the DHCP Pool Display tab.
The DHCP Pool Display tab will allow a user to configure and view up to 15 separate DHCP Address Pools. These pools of
IP Addresses are used to automatically configure an end device with an IP address, as long as the end device is set for
DHCP and/ or Boot P. DHCP may be enabled on your device. However, if a Pool is not created, addresses will not be
served to end devices.
26 of 91
11. Select the DHCP Address Assignment tab.
Use the DHCP Address Assignment tab to view and configure DHCP persistence. Every device in an IP-based network
must have a unique IP address. The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) automatically assigns IP address
information from a pool of available addresses to newly connected devices (DHCP clients) in the network. If a device leaves
and then re-joins the network, the device receives the next available IP address, which might or might not be the same
address that it had before.
The switch can be set to operate as a DHCP server to provide DHCP persistence. With DHCP persistence, you can assign
a specific IP address to each port, ensuring that the device attached to a given port will have the same address, even if
power cycled or replaced for maintenance.
27 of 91
12. Select the Save/Restore tab.
The Save/Restore tab allows you to save the switch configuration to the Studio 5000 project. It also allows you to export the
configuration files to the local computer.
The config.text file is a text file that contains the configuration for the switch.
The vlan.dat file is a binary file that contains the VLAN configuration for the switch.
13. Click the Upload button. When prompted for a Password enter rockwell.
14. Click OK to acknowledge the successful upload. You have now saved the switch configuration to the Studio 5000
project.
28 of 91
Stratix 5700 Studio 5000 Module Tags
In this section, you will look at the tags that were added by the Stratix 5700 Add-on Profile.
1. In the Controller organizer, double-click on the Controller Tags. You will notice the tags are in alphabetical order. To
see the Stratix 5700 tags, browse to the Stratix_5700:I. tags.
29 of 91
Port Connected Tags
The port connected tags can be used by your application to verify that critical devices are connected to the network. A
good example is monitoring a ring of switches. A switch ring can survive a single link failure. Your application can
monitor the ports that make up the ring and notify the operator or maintenance if one of them goes down.
Unauthorized Device Tags
If you are using port security in your network, the unauthorized device tags can be used to notify the operator or
maintenance that an unauthorized device has been detected on the network.
Port Threshold Tags
The port threshold tags can notify your application that a device is misbehaving on your network; A notification of a port
threshold being exceeded.
Port Utilization Tags
The port utilization tags give you percent utilization of each of the ports. These can be used to take a baseline for your
application and alert you if the application deviates from the baseline.
The output tags are used to enable or disable ports on the switch. A good example of this is a maintenance port on the side
of a cabinet. The HMI application can be used to ensure that the port is disabled unless a maintenance person enters a
password.
Use caution when using output tags in your program. If you disable a port with the output tag the only way to
enable the port is with the output tag. If you try to enable the port using the Add-on Profile, Device Manager,
CNA, SNMP, or CLI the controller will shut the port down again.
This means if you use a tag to shut down the port connected to the controller the controller will need to be
taken offline before the port can be enabled.
30 of 91
We must go offline with the controller to add additional I/O to the project.
6. Click the green controller icon and Click the Go Offline selection.
In the interest of saving time, because we would like you to finish the entire lab, we are bypassing the review of the Stratix 8000
AOP and module tags. But if you would like to review this material later, please feel free to do so at the end of the lab.

these Smartports earlier in Studio 5000.
38 of 91
5. Click on the Trend button.
The Trend Window shows a trend graph of the switch temperature and the utilization of the selected port. Since there is
very little traffic on the network, utilization will be near 0%. Port utilization should never be above 50%. If it is, this may be a
sign of a broadcast storm or other network issues.
39 of 91
6. Click on the Trend Legend Button.
The Trend Legends Window displays min/max Water Marks for Utilization and Switch Temp.
40 of 91
7. Click on the Alarm button.

4. Go ahead and click on other folders and review some other features and functionality associated with the Stratix 5700.
Note: Please do not change or save any configuration. This may cause issues for your lab and/or future labs.
5. Close the Stratix 5700 Web Page when you are finished reviewing it.
45 of 91
Special Note: Once you have added a Stratix switch to the I/O Tree in Studio 5000, anything that is configured in there will
supersede what is configured through the Device Manager (web page). This occurs because of the CIP Connection from
Studio 5000. Every time your program scans, the settings in the I/O tree are sent to the switch again. This is especially
important during initial configuration. If you configure your switch through the web page first, then add to the I/O tree, be
sure that you upload the configuration from the switch before making additional changes. Youll recall that we did this step
earlier.

Lab 4: Device Level Ring (DLR) Topology
47 of 91
Our DLR Ring consists of a 1756-EN2TR, a 1783-ETAP, and a 1734-AENTR as seen below. The Ethernet cable connected to
Port 2 of the EN2TR module in slot 3 of the Top CLX Chassis for the DLR Ring devices will remain disconnected until
we enable the DLR Supervisor of the Network in a later step.
Note: DLR Ethernet ports for the 1756-EN2TR and 1783-ETAP module are located at the bottom underneath the front grey cover
of the module.
48 of 91
A ring supervisor is an important component of a Device Level Ring network.
It has two key functions:
It manages the traffic on the ring and sends out heartbeats to monitor the health of the network.
It keeps the diagnostic information of the network and makes it available to the users (i.e.: ring health status, location of
wire break).
The 1756-EN2TR and the 1783-ETAP are both supervisor-capable devices. Supervisor function is disabled by default for these
devices. Users can enable the supervisor function by utilizing the Studio 5000 Add On Profile (AOP) for 1756-EN2TR and 1783-
ETAP, or via RSLinx Classic v2.56 or greater.
1. Select the Studio 5000 project EIP_Basic_Machine_START.acd by browsing through the Logix Files Folder found
on the Desktop: Logix Files\ EIP_Basic_Machine_START.acd
2. Navigate to the I/O Configuration Tree. Right Click on the Backplane and select New Module.

Inserting, Configuring, and Reviewing, the DLR Diagnostic Faceplate AOI in Studio 5000
In this lab you will insert, configure, and review the DLR Diagnostic Faceplate AOI. This Diagnostic AOI will pull data from the
1756-EN2TR (DLR Supervisor) and send it to the DLR Diagnostic Faceplate in FTViewSE.
One feature, starting with the V17 release of Studio 5000 gives us the ability to Import and Export Tasks, Programs, Routines,
UDTs and AOIs. When Importing a Task, Program, or Routine all Tags, UDTs, and AOIs will be imported automatically into the
project.
Review: To save time the DLR Diagnostic Faceplate AOI has already been imported into the project, as seen below under the
Add-On-Instruction in the Tree, but has not been inserted or configured in ladder code yet.
62 of 91
Now we will drop the AB_DLR Instruction into our Ladder Code and configure.
63 of 91
5. You can drag and drop the AB_DLR instruction from the Add-on tab of your instruction toolbar.
6. This will add the AB_DLR instruction to the new rung in your program.
7. Start configuring the AB_DLR Instruction by browsing or typing the name of each tag as seen below. When you are finished
configuring the instruction, it should look like this below.
AB_DLR: DLR_Diag
Parameters: Parameters
Get_All: Get_All

8. Click the Finalize All Edits button if you see es on the left. Select Yes when prompted to Finalize Edits.
And to make the 1732-OB8E outputs turn on automatically we will need to modify the second MOV Instruction located in Rung 1
2. Locate the MOV Instruction in Rung 0 and place this rung into edit mode by Double-Clicking to the far left of the rung.
You know you are in edit mode by the column of (i)s on the far left side.
65 of 91
3. Change the Destination Tag name of the MOV Instruction by Browsing or Typing the tag name
DLR_PointAdapter1:2:O as seen below.
4. Click the Finalize All Edits button on the toolbar. Then Click Yes in the Finalized Edits Warning Box.
66 of 91
5. At this point you should NOT see any yellow triangles on the DLR hardware in the I/O Configuration. And you should
observe the 1732-OB8E outputs turning on/off.

Enabling the DLR Ring Supervisor
The 1756-EN2TR and the 1783-ETAP are both supervisor-capable devices. Supervisor function is disabled is the default out-of-
box setting for these devices. Users can enable the supervisor function by utilizing the Studio 5000 Add On Profile (AOP) for
1756-EN2TR and 1783-ETAP, or via RSLinx Classic v2.56 or greater.
1. Referring back to the I/O Configuration Tree. Double Click the 1756-EN2TR module in Slot 3 to enter its properties
window.
68 of 91
2. Click on the Network Tab. If the Enable Supervisor Mode box is already checked, uncheck this box. Select Yes to
the DANGER: Connection Loss Apply change dialog. You will notice that the Network Topology is registering that
there is a Linear/ Star Topology and the Network Status is registering Normal. This status is an indication that the
network is indeed a star/ linear topology and a Ring Supervisor has not been enabled yet.
69 of 91
3. Check the Enable Supervisor Mode Box, and watch the status change. If the field is already selected, try unchecking
it and see what happens; then re-check to continue. Now you see that the Network Topology is registering Ring and
the Network Status is registering a Ring Fault. This is because we have not physically attached the final Ethernet cable
that will convert this linear topology into a ring topology yet.
Also the Active Ring Supervisor is IP Address 192.168.1.4. which is the 1756-EN2TR module. Do not close this
window, we will return to it momentarily.
70 of 91
Attaching the Ethernet Cable to the DLR Devices
In this lab we will attach the Ethernet cable to the final DLR device.
1. Please review the Ethernet wiring diagram below. As you can see we are using the 1783-ETAP as the device that will
attach your DLR Ring to the Stratix 5700 switch that does not have DLR Capabilities.
2. One end of the DLR Ethernet cables is disconnected between DLR devices. Attach the Ethernet cable number 4 to the
1756-EN2TR (Slot 3) port 2 . When attaching these cables please note the number associated with the DLR device
port/ link. Always attach Port 1 on the starting device to port 2 of the next device. DLR Ethernet ports for the 1756-
EN2TR and 1783-ETAP modules are located at the bottom underneath the front grey cover of the module.
71 of 91
3. Now refer back to the EN2TRs module properties and click on the Refresh Communications Button then the Reset
Counters Button. This will update the window with current data and clear all faults. Now you should see that the
Network Status is Normal.
72 of 91
DLR Diagnostic Display in FTViewSE
This portion of the lab will review the DLR Diagnostic Display in FTViewSE.
Now that you have everything configured on the Logix Side lets refer back to the FTViewSE Client you have running in the
background and more specifically the DLR Ring.
1. Click on the DLR Diagnostic Faceplate Button located near the 1756-EN2TR module.
Note: If the DLR faceplate comes up with a red banner stating that the faceplate msging is not communicating, change
the keyswitch from run program run and this will clear the msg fault. This should only occur once.
73 of 91
2. The DLR Diagnostic Display should appear. You just saw some of the same information on the 1756-EN2TR module
properties/ Network tab.
Network Status: Normal (Which means that the Ring Network is established and working as expected.)
Number of Nodes: 3 (These are the number of nodes on the DLR network)
Fault Count: The running total on how many times the ring has faulted.
Ring Supervisor: Identifies who the Ring Supervisor is for the Ring Topology.
74 of 91
3. Now lets simulate a fault. Disconnect the cable at one end between the 1734-AENTR and the 1783-ETAP and watch
the DLR Diagnostic Display. What did you see?
Note: When the DLR fault occurs, the Device Level Ring will flash red
4. You should see that there is a Ring Fault. This is indicated by the Alarm Bell changing from grey to blinking red and the
Ring Fault count has incremented by 1.
75 of 91
5. So where is the fault you ask yourself? Click on the Blinking Red Alarm Bell button. You should see that the break is
between Ethernet nodes 192.168.1.5 (1734-AENTR) and 192.168.1.6 (1783-ETAP).
Another advantage to using a DLR Ring over a Linear/Star Topology is that you have single fault tolerance capabilities.
Take a look at the 1734-OB8E Outputs to ensure that they are still blinking.
76 of 91
You can also see this status info on the 1756-EN2TR Webpage and/or its Module Properties Page (AOP).
77 of 91
7. Click on the Diagnostics Folder and browse to the Ring Statistics page. There you will see the same Ring Status
and Fault Data. Close Internet Explorer when you are finished reviewing.
8. To view the same data on the 1756-EN2TRs AOP, go back to the I/O Configuration Tree of Studio 5000 and Double
click on the 1756-EN2TR.
78 of 91
9. Browse to the Network Tab and sure enough there is the same DLR Supervisor Data.
79 of 91
10. Reattach the Ethernet cable between 1734-AENTR and the 1783-ETAP. Your DLR Diagnostic Display should be
reading Normal again.

Lab Resetting and Startup Procedures
This section describes how to reset the hardware and verify configuration when setting up the lab and between the sessions.
Please read all steps through one time before hooking and starting up the lab.
1. Wire up all Ethernet devices to the corresponding Ethernet ports on the Stratix 8000 and 5700 switches as seen below.
Note that the Line Controller (connected to the Stratix 8000) is in the bottom chassis of the demo box. The
Machine Controller (connected to the Stratix 5700 and DLR) is in the top chassis.
a. Important: Please do not connect the cable to the Machine EN2TR Slot 3, Port 2 (Top CLX). This will
be done in the Lab 4 (DLR).
b. Make sure that Line EN2TR Slot 1 Port 1 (Bottom CLX) is connected to the Stratix 8000 Fa1/5. This is
necessary for the correct IP address assignment.
c. Verify the cabling for other devices according to the diagram. Note that these connections will not change
during the normal lab steps.
2. Power cycle the demo box (if resetting between sessions or different labs). Wait approximately 2-3 minutes for
85 of 91
switches to boot (port LEDs should start to flash green).
3. Restart the lab image on the PC. The PC should have a static IP address of 192.168.1.30.
4. Move the PC Ethernet cable to the Stratix 5700 port Fa1/1. This is a temporary connection to restore the 5700 switch
configuration. You will move the cable back to the Stratix 8000 switch when finished.
5. Restore the configuration on the Stratix 5700 switch using the Cisco Network Assistant (CNA).
a. Start the CNA (shortcut on the desktop).
86 of 91
Note: If the login fails, try to enter username admin and password rockwell. This may happen
when a switch has just been upgraded to the new firmware and reset with the Express Setup
procedure. After restoring configuration, only the password is needed.
f. Select Restore tab. Select the option Show backed-up configurations of the selected device type. Select the
first item in the list. Make sure that the note says Basic Lab Stratix 5700 Configuration. Click Restore.
