    Chapter 1. Introduction 1.2.2 Embedded PROFINET Controller CPE400, CPE330 and CPE100/CPE115 feature an Embedded PROFINET IO-Controller function. This feature permits LAN2 to be configured as a PROFINET Controller similar to PNC001 in functionality, but without requiring the presence of a PNC001 rack-mounted module. In the following Specifications section, the physical specifications related to rack mounting do not apply to the embedded PROFINET Controllers.

    Chapter 1. Introduction PNC001 Module Specifications PROFINET Version 2.2 General Class A IO-Controller PROFINET Support Redundantly controlled operation conforms to PROFINET V2.3 Type S-2 System Redundancy. Note that the CPE100/CPE115 is a simplex PROFINET IO-Controller. Requires CPU315, CPU320, CPE305, CPE310 or CPE330 with firmware CPU Compatibility version 7.0 or higher.
  • Page 18 2176 (does not include backplanes, power supplies, or I/O modules) For product standards, general operating specifications, and installation requirements, refer to the PACSystems RX3i System Manual, GFK-2314. Effective with firmware v9.30, CPE100/CPE115 supports MRP. In the case of CPE330, with embedded PROFINET activated, it is possible to have five PROFINET Controllers. However, in the rare case of having all 5 PNCs configured on the same LAN, and then invoking redundancy, each CPU is again restricted to a limit of 4 PNCs (in order to satisfy the overall limit of 8 PNCs per LAN).
  • Page 19 Chapter 1. Introduction Maximum Number of Nodes per Network based on Topology • For a network using MRP ring topology, the maximum number of nodes is 64 (consisting of the PNC001 PROFINET Controller(s) plus up to 62 or 63 IO-Devices). If the ring uses Media Redundancy Protocol, this means one Media Redundancy Manager and up to 63 clients.

    Chapter 7. Network Management LLDP The PROFINET Controller implements the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). A PROFINET IO-Supervisor or other network host may use LLDP to discover the PROFINET network. 7.2.1 Overview of LLDP The Link Layer Discovery Protocol is an IEEE standardized protocol used by network devices to advertise their identities and capabilities and receive that information from physically adjacent link layer peers.

    Chapter 7. Network Management 7.2.3 LLDP TLVs The following is a brief description of the RX3i PROFINET Controller LLDP TLVs. 7.2.3.1 Chassis ID TLV The Chassis ID is always the first TLV in the LLDPDU. Chassis ID identifies the particular device on the network. PROFINET defines two possible Chassis ID formats;...
  • Page 159 Chapter 7. Network Management 7.2.3.7 PROFINET Chassis MAC TLV The PROFINET Chassis MAC indicates the internal MAC address used by the PROFINET stack. This is not the MAC address of any individual network port. 7.2.3.8 MAC/PHY Config/Status TLV The MAC/PHY Configuration/Status indicates the supported auto-negotiation capability, the current negotiated capability, and the Medium Attachment Unit (MAU) type of the network port over which this LLDP message is sent.
  • Page 160 Chapter 7. Network Management 7.2.3.9 Management Address TLV The Management Address is the address associated with the local LLDP agent that may be used to reach higher layers within the device to assist with LLDP operations. Typically, this indicates how to reach the LLDP MIB.
