IP Addresses in FINS Communications
Section 5-2
server whenever the system is started. Therefore, at a personal computer
using the DHCP service, IP addresses may be different with each system
startup.
DHCP service is mainly used for automatic settings in devices such as per-
sonal computers that are used for client applications. Nodes used for server
applications, such as mail servers, are normally allocated fixed IP addresses.
EtherNet/IP Units and built-in EtherNet/IP ports in PLC systems are also allo-
cated fixed IP addresses.
Simultaneously Running Multiple Applications on a Personal Computer
In communications involving previous models, multiple communications appli-
cations were configured on personal computers according to data accessing
uses, and the fact that no more than one UDP port number for FINS commu-
nications could be used on any given computer created a problem. This Eth-
erNet/IP Unit provides a practical solution with an internal table that pairs
remote nodes (applications) with FINS node addresses, enabling dynamic
changes.
FINS/UDP 
Communications Method
FINS nodes are allocated individually for each application on the computer,
and the respective FINS/UDP port numbers that are used are also allocated
individually. When FINS/UDP FINS commands are sent from individual appli-
cations to the EtherNet/IP Unit or built-in EtherNet/IP port, the respective
remote IP addresses and remote port numbers in the internal table are
dynamically changed.
FINS/TCP 
Communications Method
With this method as well, FINS nodes are allocated individually for each appli-
cation on the computer, and the respective FINS/TCP port numbers that are
used are also allocated individually. Each application is positioned with a
FINS/TCP client, and requests the opening of a connection with the FINS/
TCP server of the EtherNet/IP Unit or built-in EtherNet/IP port.   When the
connection is established, the respective remote IP address and remote port
number in the internal table are dynamically changed.
