1 Properties / Services
1.1 Application
The CP 343-1 communications processor is intended for operation in a SIMATIC
S7-300, C7-300 or SINUMERIK 840D power line automation system. It allows
attachment of the S7-300 to Industrial Ethernet and supports PROFINET IO.
To integrate the CP in a linear bus or ring, to connect a further Ethernet device or
to use PROFINET media redundancy, a 2-port real time ERTEC switch with
autocrossing, autonegotiation and autosensing was integrated in the CP.
1.2 Communication services

The CP supports the following communication services:
S PROFINET IO
PROFINET IO allows direct access to IO devices over Industrial Ethernet.
The CP can be used either as a PROFINET IO controller or as a PROFINET IO
device but not for both functions at the same time.
− PROFINET IO controller
IO controller mode with alarm block and acyclic data exchange using
read/write data record
− PROFINET IO device
Integration of the SIMATIC S7-300 programmable controller over the CP as
intelligent PROFINET IO device.
S S7 communication and PG/OP communication with the following functions:
− PG functions (including routing)
− Operator control and monitoring functions (HMI)
Multiplexing TD/OP connections
− Client and server for data exchange using communication blocks 1) S7
connections configured at both ends
Blocks for S7 communication: BSEND FB12, BRCV FB13, PUT FB14, GET
FB15, USEND FB8, URCV FB9, C_CNTRL FC62
(see also STEP 7 online help or manual “System Software for S7-300/400
System and Standard Functions”)
− Server for data exchange on S7 connections configured at one end only
without communication blocks on the S7-300 / C7-300 station

C79000-G8976-C201-06
S Open communications services with the following functions:

− SEND/RECEIVE interface over ISO transport connections, ISO-on-TCP,
TCP and UDP connections
UDP frame buffering on the CP can be disabled during configuration. When
necessary, this allows you to achieve a shorter reaction time between the
arrival of a UDP frame and its evaluation on the CPU.
− Multicast over UDP connection
The multicast mode is made possible by selecting a suitable IP address
when configuring connections.
− FETCH/WRITE services (server; corresponding to S5 protocol) via ISO
transport connections, ISO-on-TCP connections and TCP connections;
The addressing mode can be configured for FETCH/WRITE access as the
S7 or S5 addressing mode.
− LOCK/UNLOCK with FETCH/WRITE services;
− Connection diagnostics using the user program
1.3 Other services

S Media redundancy (MRP)
Within an Ethernet network with a ring topology, the CP supports the media
redundancy protocol MRP. You can assign the role of redundancy client to the
CP. There must be another node in the ring other than the MRP redundancy
manager.
S Time-of-day synchronization over Industrial Ethernet using the following
configurable modes:
− SIMATIC mode
The CP receives MMS time messages and synchronizes its local time and
the time of the CPU.
(accuracy approx. +/− 1 second)
You can choose whether or not the time of day is forwarded. The forwarding
direction can also be selected (station > LAN or LAN > station).
or
− NTP mode (NTP: Network Time Protocol)
The CP sends time-of-day queries at regular intervals to an NTP server and
synchronizes its local time of day and the time of the CPU (accuracy approx.
+/− 1 second).
S Addressing using a factory-set MAC address
The CP can be reached over the default or configured MAC address to allow an
IP address to be assigned.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
S SNMP Agent
The CP supports data queries over SNMP version V1 (Simple Network
Management Protocol). It delivers the content of certain MIB objects according
to the MIB II standard and LLDP MIB.
S Time of day for the diagnostic buffer
If a time master exists (using the NTP or SIMATIC mode), the time for
CP-internal diagnostic buffer is synchronized over the LAN.
S Module access protection
To protect the module form accidental or unauthorized access, protection can
be configured at various levels.
S IP access protection (IP-ACL)
Communication via the CP of the local S7 station can be restricted to partners
with specific IP addresses
S IP configuration
For the PROFINET interface, you can configure how and with which method
the CP is assigned the IP address, the subnet mask and the address of a
gateway.
As an alternative to STEP 7, you have the option of assigning the connection
configuration via a block interface in the user program (FB55: IP_CONFIG).
Note: Does not apply to S7 connections and ISO connections.
S Web diagnostics
With the aid of Web diagnostics, you can read out the diagnostic data from a
station connected via the CP to a PG/PC with an Internet browser.
If you do not require this function, you can disable it in the STEP 7 configuration
and disable the port 80.

available as the interface in your STEP 7 user program.
Please refer to the documentation of the FCs / FBs in the online help of STEP 7 or
in the manual /9/.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Notice
We recommend that you always use the latest block versions for all module types.
You will find information on the latest block version and links to download the
current blocks in our Customer Support area on the Internet:
http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/news/en/8797900
With the older module types, this recommendation assumes that you are using the
latest firmware for the particular block type.
Caution
The communication blocks for S7-300 (SIMATIC NET block libraries for S7-300 in
STEP 7) must not be called in more than one priority class! If, for example, you
call a communication block in OB1 and in OB35, block execution could be
interrupted by the higher-priority OB.
If you call blocks in more than one OB, you must write your program so that a
communication block that is currently executing cannot be interrupted by another
communication block (for example by disabling/enabling SFC interrupts).

The hinged front panel must be kept closed during operation.
The module must be installed so that its upper and lower ventilation slits are not
covered, allowing adequate ventilation.
Warning
! When used under hazardous conditions (zone 2), the devices must be installed in
an enclosure.
Where ATEX 95 (EN 60079−15:2005, EN 60079−0:2006) applies, this enclosure
must meet at least IP54 in compliance with EN 60529.
WARNING − EXPLOSION HAZARD: DO NOT DISCONNECT EQUIPMENT
WHEN A FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE ATMOSPHERE IS PRESENT.
Warning
! The device is designed for operation with safety extra-low voltage (SELV). This
means that only safety extra-low voltages (SELV) complying with
IEC950/EN60950/ VDE0805 may be connected to the power supply terminals.
The power unit for supplying the device must comply with NEC Class 2 as
described by the National Electrical Code(r) (ANSI/NFPA 70).
The power of all connected power units in total must correspond to a limited power
source (LPS).
Configuration
To set up the CP for the communications services, note the information on the
topic of configuration in Section 2.2 of this device manual.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
3.2 Module replacement without PG
General procedure
The configuration data for the CP is stored either on the CPU or on the CP. If the
data is stored on the CPU, the module can be replaced with a module of the same
type (identical order number) without a PG.
This option can be selected in the properties dialog of the CP (in the “Options” tab
− “Replace Module without PG”). We recommend that you store the configuration
data on the CPU if the configuration memory of the CPU allows.
For information on replacing previous modules, refer to the section “Compatibility”
in Chapter 7.
Module replacement: Special feature of IP address assignment from a DHCP

server
During configuration of the CP you can specify the IP configuration in the
properties dialog; one option is to obtain the IP address from a DHCP server.
Notice
When replacing modules, remember that the factory-set MAC address of the new
module is different from the previous module. When the factory-set MAC address
of the new module is sent to the DHCP server, this will return either a different or
possibly even no IP address.
Ideally, you should therefore configure IP as follows:
Always configure a client ID if you want to obtain the same IP address from the
DHCP server after replacing the module.
If you have configured a new MAC address instead of the factory-set MAC
address (generally the exception), the DHCP server always receives the
configured MAC address and the CP obtains the same IP address as the replaced
module.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
3.3 Controlling the operating mode

You have the option of changing the mode of the CP between RUN and STOP
using the STEP 7 / NCM S7 configuration software (PLC > Accessible Nodes).
Procedure
S Switch from STOP to RUN:
The CP reads the configured and/or downloaded data into the work memory
and then changes to the RUN mode.
S Switch from RUN to STOP:
The CP changes to STOP. Established connections (ISO transport,
ISO-on-TCP, TCP, UDP connections) are terminated (transitional phase with
LED display “STOPPING”);
The reaction is as follows in STOP:
− The communications connections mentioned above are terminated;
− The configuration and diagnostics of the CP is possible (system connections
for configuration, diagnostics, and PG channel routing are retained);
− HTTP access is possible
− The routing function is active
− The time of day is not forwarded
− PROFINET IO is disabled.

You can, for example, operate:
16 S7 connections, of which
− 8 PUT jobs
− 8 GET jobs
16 S7 connections, of which
− 2 ISO-on-TCP connections
− 8 TCP connections
− 6 UDP connections
Also:
S Other TCP connections for Web diagnostics

5.2 Characteristic data for S7 communication

Table 5-2

Number of connections for S7 communication on in each case, up to
Industrial Ethernet S 16 Operator control and monitoring functions
(HMI)
S 16 S7 connections configured at one end
S 16 S7 connections configured at both ends
The number depends on the CPU type being used.
Please refer to /1/ for the values for your CPU.
Remember the maximum number of Ethernet
connections shown in section 5.1.
16 resources maximum
A resource is required for each S7 communication
function executed. If the CP has 16 job resources,
then 16 PUT or GET jobs can be executed on 16
S7 connection at the same time (the same with
BSEND/BRECV and USEND/URECV jobs).
LAN interface − data field length generated by CP
per protocol data unit
S sending 240 bytes / PDU
S receiving 240 bytes / PDU
Failure time due to a connection abort

If an S7 connection aborts, for example due to the failure of the connection partner,
it can take up to 40 seconds before the connection abort is detected in the block.
Block processing is aborted and the block resources are released again. With
PUT/GET, the block processing cannot be aborted.
Execution times of the FBs for S7 connections

To calculate the CPU cycle times (OB1) with S7 connections, the execution time
for the function blocks (FBs PUT, GET, USEND, URCV, BSEND, BRCV) required
for processing on the S7-300 / C7-300 CPU is the decisive factor.
Note
Measurements of transmission and reaction times in Ethernet, PROFIBUS and
PROFINET networks for a series of configurations can be found on the Internet at
the following address:

5.3 Characteristics of the SEND/RECEIVE interface

The SEND/RECEIVE interface provides access to communication over TCP,
ISO-on-TCP, ISO transport, and UDP connections.
The following characteristics are important:
Table 5-3

Total number of ISO transport connections + Maximum 16
ISO-on-TCP connections + TCP connections + Notes:
UDP connections
S All UDP connections are also possible in the
multicast mode
S Free UDP connections are supported by the
CP.
Max. data length for blocks AG_SEND (V4.0 and AG_SEND and AG_RECV allow the transfer of
higher) and AG_RECV (V4.0 and higher) data fields of between 1 and 240 bytes.
S 1 to 8192 bytes for ISO transport,
ISO-on-TCP, TCP;
S 1 to 2048 bytes for UDP
Restrictions for UDP
S Transfer is not confirmed The transmission of UDP frames is unconfirmed, in
other words the loss of messages is not detected
or displayed by the send blocks (AG_SEND).
S No reception of UDP broadcast To avoid communication overload resulting from a

high broadcast load, the CP does not permit
reception of UDP broadcast.
S UDP frame buffering Size of the frame buffer with buffering enabled:
2 Kbytes
Note:
Following a buffer overflow, newly arriving frames
are discarded.
Execution times of the FCs AG_SEND / AG_RECV

To calculate the CPU cycle times (OB1) with SEND/RECEIVE connections, the
execution time for the FCs (FC AG_SEND, FC AG_RECV) required for processing
on the S7-300 / C7-300 CPU is the decisive factor.

5.4 PROFINET IO
5.4.1 Characteristic data
Possible modes with PROFINET IO

In PROFINET IO, the CP can function as PROFINET IO device or as PROFINET
IO controller.
CP as PROFINET IO controller
The CP supports the following maximum configuration as a PROFINET IO
controller:
Table 5-4

Number of possible PROFINET IO devices 32
If data is stored on the CPU, the
number of operable
PROFINET IO devices may be
< 32. This depends on the free
configuration memory available
on the CPU type you are using.
Size the input area over all PROFINET IO devices *) 1024 bytes max.
Size the output area over all PROFINET IO devices 1024 bytes max.
Size of the IO data area per submodule of a module in an IO device
S Inputs 240 bytes
S Outputs 240 bytes
Size of the consistency area for a submodule 240 bytes
Permitted number of CP 343-1 modules that can be operated as a 1
PROFINET IO controller in an S7-300 station
*) The diagnostic addresses of the PROFINET IO devices cannot be used in the IO controller as inputs. The
data area of the inputs is reduced by the diagnostic addresses used.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
CP as PROFINET IO device
Use the following components in the hardware catalog of STEP 7 / HW Config to
configure the CP as PROFINET IO device :
PROFINET IO > I/O > SIMATIC S7-CP > CP... > 6GK.. > V2.2
In contrast, use the component of the hardware catalog of STEP 7 / HW Config
listed below in the following situations:
S The CP is assigned as an IO device to an IO controller that does not support
“expanded diagnostics”.
PROFINET IO > I/O > SIMATIC S7-CP > CP... > 6GK..(migration) > V2.2
The CP supports the following maximum configuration as a PROFINET IO device:
Table 5-5

Size of the input area of the PROFINET IO device 512 bytes max.
Size of the output area of the PROFINET IO device 512 bytes max.
Size of the IO data area per submodule in a PROFINET IO device
S Inputs 240 bytes
S Outputs 240 bytes
Size of the consistency area for a submodule 240 bytes
Maximum number of submodules 32
Execution times of the FCs PNIO_SEND / PNIO_RECV

The calculation of the reaction times with PROFINET IO is determined by the
execution time of the function blocks required on the S7-300 CPU (PNIO_SEND,
PNIO_RECV).
Note
25209605

C79000-G8976-C201-06
5.4.2 How PROFINET IO devices start up with a large operational

configuration
When operating the module with a large configuration (up to 32 communication

connections and up to 32 PROFINET IO devices), it may take several minutes
when the station starts up before all PROFINET IO devices have received
configuration data from the PROFINET IO controller. The IE/PB Link PN IO
operating as a PROFINET IO device is particularly affected by this.
To avoid the CPU stopping the distribution of configuration data in this situation, it
may be necessary to increase the monitoring times on the CPU (Properties dialog,
“Startup” tab).
5.4.3 Operating PROFINET IO alongside other services
Sporadically used services

Please remember the following if you use other functions at the same time as
PROFINET IO that affect the configuration or the mode (FB55; Primary Setup
Tool, STEP 7, NCM Diagnostics):
Notice
These functions can influence operation with PROFINET IO to such an extent that
an interruption of the cyclic I/O data exchange of the PROFINET IO devices
lasting several seconds may result.
5.4.4 Effects of multicast communication on RT communication
Notice
If PROFINET IO RT communication is operated at the same time as broadcast
(BC) or multicast (MC) in an Industrial Ethernet subnet, RT frames may be
delayed by long BC frames or MC frames.
These frames can, for example, be generated by the communications FCs
AG_SEND or AG_RECV.
With certain constellations, this can lead to a PROFINET RT communication abort.
The factors that influence this are the switch configurations (“switch depth”), the
update time and the MC/BC frame lengths.
For more detailed information on the influencing factors and possible solutions,
refer to:

C79000-G8976-C201-06
29104898
5.5 Characteristic data of the integrated switch
Learning addresses / deleting addresses (aging time)

The switch integrated in the CP (PROFINET interface) reads the source addresses
in the data packets. The switch therefore learns the addresses of the end devices
connected via a port.
If the switch receives a data packet, it directs this packet only to the port via which
the appropriate DTE can be obtained.
The switch monitors the age of the learned addresses. Addresses that exceed the
“aging time” are deleted. The aging time is 5 minutes.
Ports can be deactivated individually

The ports of the switch integrated in the CP can be deactivated individually in
STEP 7 / HW Config. This can, for example, be used for service purposes.
To do this, open the properties dialog of the relevant port and select the “disabled”
setting under “Options > Transfer medium / duplex”.
The port is turned off completely when it is deactivated. The corresponding LED on
the device (for example P1) is then turned off.

S Single-width design
S The mode selector is no longer present
(the mode can be changed in the SIMATIC Manager in STEP 7 or NCM
Diagnostics).
S No exchangeable C-PLUG
7.3 Replacing older modules: spares / upgrading
Distinction
When replacing existing modules with the module described here, the following
variants must be distinguished:
S Use as a replacement:
The situation described here is when an existing module can be replaced by a
new module by removing and inserting it with no change to the configuration.
S Upgrading (functionally compatible module replacement)
The situation in this case is when the module described here can be used
instead of an older module as long as adaptations are made in the
configuration. The CP used previously is replaced by the new CP in the
configuration.
Unless stated otherwise, the range of functions of the older module continues to be
supported in both cases.
You can also upgrade modules listed under “use as a replacement”. This becomes
necessary when you want to use new features that were not available on the
previously used module.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Use as a replacement:
The CP 343-1 (6GK7 343-1EX30-0XE0) described here can be used as a
replacement for the following predecessor products:

S CP 343-1 (6GK7 343-1EX11-0XE0) *)
S CP 343-1 (6GK7 343-1EX20-0XE0)
S CP 343-1 (6GK7 343-1EX21-0XE0) **)
*) Please note that there is no longer an AUI interface as was available in these
device types. To attach to an AUI network, use the media converter
Scalance X101-1 AUI (6GK5 101-1BX00-2AA3).
**) Compared with the device types CP 343-1 (EX21), note the changed number
of possible connections and the lower PROFINET IO configuration limits and
lack of support for PROFINET CBA compared with device type CP 343-1
(EX21).
Upgrading
The following predecessor products can be upgraded to the CP 343-1
(6GK7 343-1EX30-0XE0) described here:
S See modules in “use as a replacement”
The CP 343-1 (EX30) can be inserted along with a dummy module SM370
(6ES7 370-0AA01-0AA0) in a double-width slot in an existing S7-300 rack. The
SM370 placeholder module has a switch on the rear that, in this case, needs to be
set to ”NA”.

engineering is necessary.
6GK7 343-1EX10-0XE0 **) ***)
When putting the module into operation, note the following difference:
S If the option of storing the configuration data on the CPU was
selected for the CP you are replacing, when the CP starts up, the
configuration data will be transferred automatically from the CPU
to the CP.
S Otherwise, download the configuration data to the CP from your
PG/PC again.
Case b: Adapted configuration / upgrade
If you want to use the extended functionality of the new CP, follow the
steps below:
7. In STEP 7 / HW Config, replace the previously configured CP with
the new module from the hardware catalog.
8. Extend the configuration to meet your requirements, for example
in the connection configuration.
9. Save, compile and download the configuration data to the CPU or
CP again.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Notice
Read the following notes on the module types listed in Table 7-1:
*) When replacing a module, remember the changed configuration limits for the
possible connections, the reduced PROFINET IO configuration limits and that
the PROFINET CBA functionality is no longer supported.
**) If you replace a module, you will need to download the adapted project
engineering data to the new module types using STEP*7. The procedure is
therefore possible only with “Case b / adapted configuration”.
***) If you replace a module, you will need to update the communication blocks to
the latest version.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
8 Further Notes on Operation
8.1 Clear/reset and Reset to factory settings

If the CP was configured with the protection level “status dependent”, the following
two functions are only available if the CPU is in STOP. You will find the setting in
the properties dialog of STEP 7 > ”Options” > Module access protection.
Available functions
The following two functions are available for the CP:
S Clear / reset
Following this memory reset, the CP retains the preset MAC address and the
retentive parameters. The CP is therefore immediately ready for downloads
using the IP address.
The retentive parameters include:
− IP address, subnet mask and, if applicable, router address
− LAN settings
S Resetting to factory settings
After this memory reset, the CP retains only the factory-set MAC address (as
shipped).
If you store the configuration data on the CPU, please read the note below.
Note
Using the functions described here to reset the memory, you do not modify the
configuration data on the CPU!
If you subsequently upload the configuration data from the CPU to a PG you will
always object the configuration data that were previously on the CP (with
parameters, connections, IP address).
How to use the function

You can start the memory reset functions in STEP 7.
S Clear / reset
In STEP 7/HW Config with PLC " Clear/Reset
or
In STEP 7 / NCM Diagnostics with Operating Mode " Clear/Reset Module

C79000-G8976-C201-06
S Factory defaults reset

In STEP 7 / NCM Diagnostics with Operating Mode " Reset to Factory
Defaults
Behavior after memory reset

The CPU in the S7 station does not recognize that the CP memory was reset. The
CP therefore changes to the “stopped with error” state (see Chapter 4).
The configuration data must then be reloaded.
if the configuration data are stored on the CPU, you can start a download with
power down/up.
8.2 Network settings with Fast Ethernet

Row “X1P1”: Properties of port 1 of the PROFINET interface
Row “X1P2”: Properties of port 2 of the PROFINET interface
Automatic setting or individual network settings

As default, the CP is configured for automatic detection
(Autosensing/Autonegotiation/Autocrossing).
Notice
In normal situations, the basic setting ensures trouble-free communication. You
should only change these in exceptional situations.
If you create a manual configuration for the CP, the automatic negotiation of the
network settings (autonegotiation) is no longer effective. If, on the other hand, the
communication partner works with autonegotiation, no communication will be
established.
Only use manual configuration when the communication partner works with the
same manually set configuration.
Autocrossing mechanism
The automatic setting also includes an “autocrossing” mechanism. With
autocrossing, you can connect network components and end devices using either
crossover or straight-through cables.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
STEP 7 / NCM Diagnostics and Web diagnostics display the network setting
Diagnostics of the port settings for the CP described here is possible using the
entries in the diagnostic buffer over Web diagnostics, SNMP, NCM diagnostics,
and the LED displays.
You will find information on the currently used network settings in STEP 7 as
follows:
S In NCM Diagnostics under the diagnostic object “Industrial Ethernet” in the
“Network Attachment” group box;
S In HW Config with the menu command “PLC > Module Information”;
S In WEB diagnostics.
Further notes:
S Autocrossing
If you disable the “automatic setting” option, autocrossing is also disabled;
which cable you can then use depends on the role of the CP (network
component or end device).
S 10/100 Mbps network components without “autonegotiation”
If you use 10/100 Mbps network components that do not support
“autonegotiation”, you may have to set the mode manually during CP
configuration using STEP 7 / HW Config (in the properties dialog of the CP). As
default, the CP is configured for automatic detection.
S Forcing a specific network setting instead of “Autonegotiation”
If your application requires a fixed network setting instead of “Autonegotiation”,
both partner devices must have the same setting.
S No reaction to Autonegotiation query with manual configuration
Remember that if you configure the CP manually, it will not react to an
autonegotiation query! As a result, a connected partner will not be able to make
the required network setting and communication will not be established.
Example:
If, for example, the CP is set to “100 Mbps − full duplex”, a CP connected as
partner will set “100 Mbps − half duplex”. Reason: Due to the fixed setting, no
autonegotiation response is possible; the connected partner recognizes the
100 Mbps with autosensing but nevertheless remains in half duplex.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
S Recommendation: Change “individual network settings” only over MPI.

If you modify the LAN settings in the properties dialog of the CP in the “Port
Parameters” tab, these changes will be adopted by the CP and activated when
the configuration data is downloaded to the CP. In some situations, the device
may then no longer be obtainable over Ethernet.
We therefore recommend that you download configuration data to the S7
station over an MPI connection if you change this setting.
If you download the configuration data over the LAN interface, depending on
the selected setting, it is possible that the current download will not be
completed due to the changes to the configuration taking immediate effect and
an inconsistent configuration is reported.
Example:
The download is started initially with the setting TP/ITP at 10 Mbps half duplex.
If the “Individual network setting” is now changed to 100 Mbps full duplex, the
download cannot be completed.
8.3 Influence of MPI on connections via Industrial Ethernet

If a station on MPI is added or removed, for example because a service PG has
been connected or disconnected, it is possible that active communication
connections on the communications bus are aborted. This has the following effects
on the communication connections on Industrial Ethernet:
S All S7 connections are temporarily aborted.
This does not apply when using CPUs with a separate communication bus, for
example:
CPU 318-2, CPU 317-2 PN/DP, CPU 319-3 PN/DP, CPU 315–2 PN/DP,
CPU 315F–2 PN/DP, CPU 317–2 DP, CPU 317T–2 DP, CPU 317F–2 DP,
CPU 317F–2 PN/DP, CPU 318–2 DP
S The connections on which a job on the communication bus with a data length >
240 bytes is being processed are aborted temporarily.
S FETCH/WRITE connections are temporarily aborted.
On the FC interface in the user program, the condition codes made up of the
DONE, ERROR and STATUS parameters must be evaluated in FC5 / FC6.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
8.4 IP configuration
8.4.1 Configured S7 connections cannot be operated if the IP

address is assigned over DHCP
Notice
If you obtain the IP address over DHCP, any S7 connections you may have
configured will not work. Reason: The configured IP address is replaced by the
address obtained over DHCP during operation.
8.4.2 Detection of double IP addressing in the network
To save you time-consuming troubleshooting in the network, the CP detects double

addressing in the network.
The reaction of the CP when double addressing is detected varies as follows:
S CP during startup
When the CP starts up (after return of power or after assignment of an Ethernet
address), the CP sends out a query for its own IP address on the network. If
there is a response, the CP does not start up! The error is indicated by an LED
(display “stopped (STOP) with error” + LED “BF”) and by an entry in the internal
diagnostic buffer.
The CP remains in STOP
When you eliminate the cause by removing the device with the same IP address or
changing its address, you must then restart the CP.
S CP in RUN mode
In RUN, the CP also sends this query at intervals of one minute to detect
double IP addresses.
If a double IP address is detected, the CP also reports this via the LEDs (BUSF
LED) and generates an entry in the diagnostic buffer.
The CP remains in RUN mode.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
8.4.3 Obtaining the IP address over DHCP: CP STOP on expiry of the

lease
If you have configured “Obtain IP address from a DHCP server”, when the CP
starts up, it is assigned a valid IP address by the DHCP server for a restricted time
(period of the lease).
When the lease expires the reaction of the CP is as follows:
The CP changes to STOP and loses the previously assigned IP address if the
DHCP server does not extend it before expiry of the lease. All communication
connections are terminated.
8.5 IP access protection via the IP access control list with a

PROFINET IO device
Please note the following when IP access protection is activated:
When you configure the CP as a PROFINET IO device, make sure that you enter
the IP address of the PROFINET IO controller in the IP access list.
8.6 Media redundancy

You can use the CP in a ring topology with media redundancy. The CP can only be
a redundancy client.
You create the configuration in STEP 7 in the properties dialog of the PROFINET
interface in the “Media redundancy” tab (HW Config: Row “X2 (<device name>)”).
For more detailed information on configuration, refer to the online help of the
“Media redundancy” tab and in Part A of the manual.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
8.7 Time-of-day synchronization
General rules
The CP supports the two modes explained below for time-of-day synchronization:
S SIMATIC mode
S NTP mode (NTP: Network Time Protocol)
Note
No automatic changeover to daylight saving is defined in NTP. As a result, you
may need to implement this changeover using a program application.
Notice
Note the following regarding time-of-day synchronization in NTP mode:
If the CP recognizes an NTP frame as being “not exact” (example: NTP server is
not externally synchronized), it is not forwarded to the communication bus. If this
problem occurs, none of the NTP servers is displayed as “NTP master” in the
diagnostics; rather all NTP servers are displayed only as being accessible.
Forwarding the time-of-day message

You can configure the direction in which time-of-day messages are forwarded in
STEP 7 / NCM S7 in the properties dialog of the CP as follows.
S Configuration “from station to LAN”
The CP forwards time frames from the CPU to Industrial Ethernet when the
local CPU is time master (SIMATIC mode only) or when the time of day is
forwarded by a different CP on the K bus.
S Configuration “from LAN to station”
The CP forwards time frames from Industrial Ethernet to the CPU when one of
the following components is time master:
− In the SIMATIC mode:
− a remote CPU 41x
− a SIMATIC NET time transmitter
− a CP 1430 TF
− an NTP server when using the NTP mode
As default, time-of-day synchronization is not activated for the CP and it does not
therefore forward the time. However, the internal clock of the CP is synchronized
even in this case if a time-of-day frame is received from the communication bus or
from Industrial Ethernet.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Synchronization using one of the two modes described here must be configured in
STEP 7 in the properties dialog of the CP − “Time-of-Day Synchronization” tab.
For more detailed information on the parameters and options, please refer to the
online help in the properties dialog.
Coordinating forwarding of the time of day with several CPs

If there is more than one CP in a station connected to the same network, only one
of these CPs is allowed to pass on time-of-day messages.
You can therefore made the following settings in the configuration:
S Automatic
The CP receives the time-of-day message from the LAN or from the station and
forwards it to the station or to the LAN.
If several CPUs are being operated in the station, this automatic setting can
lead to collisions. To avoid this, you can specify the direction of forwarding with
the following options:
S From station to LAN
S From LAN to station

C79000-G8976-C201-06
8.8 SNMP agent
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)

The CP supports data queries via SNMP in Version 1. It returns the contents of
certain MIB objects according to the MIB II standard, LLDP MIB.
SNMP is a protocol for managing networks. To transmit data, SNMP uses the
connectionless UDP protocol.
The information on the properties of SNMP-compliant devices is entered in MIB
files (MIB = Management Information Base).
Where to find further information

For more detailed information on working with MIB files, refer to the
documentation of the SNMP client you are using (example of an SNMP client:
SNMP OPC Server from SIMATIC NET).
You will find more information on MIB on the following SIMATIC NET Internet
page:
Supported MIB objects

The CP supports the following groups of MIB objects of the MIB II standard in
compliance with RFC1213:
S System
S Interfaces
S Address Translation (AT)
S IP
S ICMP
S TCP
S UDP
S SNMP
The other groups of the MIB II standard are not supported:
S EGP
S Transmission
The CP also supports the LLDP-MIB according to IEEE 802.1AB and the
PROFINET expansions of the LLDP-MIB (see also IEC 61158-10-6).
Exceptions / restrictions:
S Write access is permitted only for the following MIB objects of the system

C79000-G8976-C201-06
group:
sysContact, sysLocation and sysName;
For all other MIB objects / MIB object groups, only read access is possible for
security reasons.
S Traps are not supported by the CP.
“Interfaces” MIB group

This group returns status information about the CP interfaces. The MIB objects of
the ifTable provide the status information of the interfaces. The “ifIndex” object
identifier is assigned to the CP interfaces as follows:
ifIndex Type of interface

1−2 Port 1−2
3 Internal CP interface
Access permissions using community name

The CP uses the following community names to control the access rights in the
SNMP agent:
Type of access Community name *)

Read access public
Read and write access private
*) Note the use of lower-case letters!
8.9 Possible security gaps on standard IT interfaces:

preventing illegal access
With various SIMATIC NET components, such as switches, a wide range of
parameter assignment and diagnostic functions (for example, Web servers,
network management) are available over open protocols and interfaces. The
possibility of unauthorized misuse of these open protocols and interfaces by third
parties, for example to manipulate data, cannot be entirely excluded.
When using the functions listed above and these open interfaces and protocols (for
example, SNMP, HTTP), you should take suitable security measures to prevent
unauthorized access to the components and the network particularly from within
the WAN/Internet.

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Notice
We expressly point out that automation networks must be isolated from the rest of
the company network by suitable gateways (for example using tried and tested
firewall systems). We do not accept any liability whatsoever, whatever the legal
justification, for damage resulting from non-adherence to this notice.
If you have questions on the use of firewall systems and IT security, please contact
your local Siemens office or representative. You will find the address in the
SIMATIC catalog IK PI or on the Internet at

8.10 Interface in the user program
8.10.1 Programmed communication connections with FB55

IP_CONFIG (PROFINET interface)
Downloading the configuration using FB55

FB55 allows program-controlled transfer of the configuration data.
Note
If the CP is in PG STOP mode, the configuration is downloaded using FB55; the
CP then changes automatically to RUN.
8.10.2 IP access protection with programmed communication

connections
In principle, it is possible to set up communication connections using FB55 by

programming and at the same time by configuring IP access protection. Please
note the following point:

C79000-G8976-C201-06
Notice
When configuring specified connections in STEP 7 / NCM S7, the IP addresses of
the partners are entered automatically in the IP-ACL (IP Access Control List).
The IP addresses of partners with unspecified connections (passive end points)
and of partners on programmed communication paths are not entered in the
IP-ACL. This means that communication with unspecified nodes is not possible if
IP access protection is activated.
8.10.3 Programmed communications connections − Assigning

parameters to the ports
The CP now supports the following settings when assigning parameters to the
ports in the parameter block for TCP connections and UDP connections:
S SUB_LOC_PORT parameter
The port can be specified as an option when the connection is established
actively.
S SUB_REM_PORT parameter
The port can be specified as an option when the connection is established
passively.

9 How to Load New Firmware
9 How to Load New Firmware
Requirements
You download new firmware to a SIMATIC NET CP using the firmware loader
shipped with STEP 7 / NCM S7.
Requirements for downloading
S To download firmware, you require an Industrial Ethernet CP module in the
PG/PC (for example, CP 1613) or a normal Ethernet module with the “Softnet”
software package.
S The S7-ONLINE interface must be set to the “ISO − Industrial Ethernet”
protocol. It is not possible to download using TCP/IP (and therefore not to other
networks).
How to download new firmware

You always start the download using the active MAC address of the CP!
LEDs to indicate the CP mode

The different combinations of the LEDs on the front panel indicate the status:
Table 9-1
SF BF RUN STOP CP operating mode

(red) (red) (green) (yellow)
Downloading firmware.
Firmware was successfully downloaded.
Firmware could not be downloaded.
What to do if a download is interrupted

Disturbances or collisions on the network can lead to packets being lost. In such
cases, this can lead to an interruption of the firmware download. The firmware
loader then signals a timeout or negative response from the module being loaded.
In this case, turn the station off and on again and repeat the download.
