KonnectBootP

Modern EtherNet/IP BOOTP/DHCP commissioning

A free replacement for Rockwell’s retired BootP-DHCP utility. Discover factory-default CIP devices, assign addressing, verify, then set static—without FactoryTalk or RSLinx.

How teams use it

  1. 01

    Pick the NIC

    Select the OT adapter, start the BOOTP/DHCP server, and watch List Identity responses land.

  2. 02

    Assign addressing

    Set IP, subnet, gateway, DNS, and hostname for each discovered device.

  3. 03

    Verify, then lock

    Confirm reachability before Set Static via CIP so you do not brick a module mid-startup.

  4. 04

    Save the profile

    Keep a .btpprofile and event log for the next panel or FAT.
