fp@703: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fp@703: fp@703: $Id$ fp@703: fp@703: This file shall give additional information on how to set up a network fp@703: environment with Ethernet-over-EtherCAT devices. fp@703: fp@703: A virtual network interface will appear for every EoE-capable slave. The fp@703: interface naming scheme is eoeXsY, where X is the master index and Y is the fp@703: slave's ring position. Please provide a network configuration file for any of fp@703: these interfaces. On SUSE systems, these can look like the following: fp@703: fp@703: /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eoe0s14: fp@703: IPADDRESS=10.0.0.14/8 fp@703: STARTMODE=auto fp@703: fp@703: This will tell the ifupd to configure and open the device after it appears. fp@703: fp@703: If the interfaces shall be part of a network bridge, the IPADDRESS line is not fp@703: necessary. Instead, copy the file script/ifup-eoe.sh to your systems if-up.d fp@703: directory (on SUSE, this is /etc/sysconfig/network/if-up.d), and customize the fp@703: included variables. fp@703: fp@703: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
