Protocol Structure
The NeXUS network is a TCP/IP over Ethernet type LAN with a manufacturing message
transfer protocol, known as NeXUS, on top, as shown in the table below. This protocol is
known as the Autonomous Decentralized Protocol, or ADP.

Supported Services
The ADP protocol provides to application programs 2 means of message transmission:
peer-to-peer and multicast. Because the peer-to-peer message transfer requires a
connection-oriented service as an underlayer, it uses the TCP protocol.
Since multicast transmission is connectionless, multicast messages are sent and received
using the UDP protocol. As with any connectionless service, delivery and sequence of
messages is not guaranteed. Nor is there a flow control mechanism.

The 1756-CLX/C module supports multicast transmission services

 About the NeXUS Network 3-3

Network Organization
Looking from the top down, a NeXUS network is viewed as a system of islands called
domains, interconnected via a wide area network. Each domain is uniquely identified by a
domain number (DMN), which ranges from 1 to 64. The domain number must be provided
in all ADP PDU headers. DMN 0 is reserved for the domain considered within the scope
of the ADP specification.
A domain is divided into data fields. A data field is an area within which a group of logical
nodes communicates with each other via multicast or peer-to-peer messages. A domain is
uniquely identified by a data field number (DFN) which ranges from 1 through 255 and
must be provided in all ADP PDU headers. One data field is configured per network or
sub-network address of the IP address.
Only nodes belonging to the same data field can communicate with each other. A node can
belong to more than one data field. Relative to a node, a data field can be local or remote
(for example, connected to the node via a router). Only local data fields are considered
within the scope of the ADP specification.
To support multicast communication, nodes within a data field are organized into
multicast groups. A node can be a member of more than one multicast group. A multicast
group is uniquely identified as a multicast group number, or MGN, which ranges from 1 to
255. The MGN must be provided in all multicast ADP PDU headers.
Each NeXUS node, also called a logical node, is uniquely identified by a logical node
number, or LNN, which ranges from 1 to 4095. The LNN must be provided in all ADP
PDU headers.
The user normally assigns and manages DFNs, LNNs, and MGNs. DMN, DFN, and LNN
form the source address (SA). DMN, DFN, and MGN form the destination address (DA)
of an ADP PDU header.

Configuration Requirements
Before you can use your 1756-CLX/C module, you must configure its IP address,
gateway, and subnet mask by specifying parameters NX00 through NX02 on the
Logix5000 controller. Refer to Appendices D and E of this manual for definitions of these
parameters.

IP Address
The IP address identifies each node on the TCP/IP network (or system of connected
networks). Each TCP/IP node on a network must have a unique IP address.
The IP address is 32 bits long and is composed of a net ID, host ID, and/or a multicast ID.
Each network can be a Class A, B, C, or D format. The class of the network determines
how an IP address is formatted.

Class C 1 1 0 Network ID host ID

0 1 16 24 31
Class D 1 1 1 0 Multicast ID host ID

Each node on the same physical network must have an IP address of the same class and
must have the same nework or multicast ID. Each node on the same network must have a
different host ID, giving it a unique IP address.
IP addresses are written as four decimal integers (0-255), separated by periods, where each
integer gives the value of one byte of the IP address.

For example, the 32-bit IP address:

EXAMPLE
10000010 00000000 00000000 00000001 is written as 130.0.0.1.

You can distinguish the class of an IP address from the first integer in its dotted-decimal
IP address as follows:
Range of first integer Class
0 -127 A
128 -191 B
192 - 223 C
224 - 239 D
240 - 255 Experimental

Contact your network administrator or the Network Information Center

TIP
for a unique fixed IP address to assign to your module.

TCP-IP, Volume 1: Protocols and Architecture; Englewood Cliffs, N.J.: Prentice-Hall,
1990.

Publication 1756-UM524B-EN-P - December 2008

3-6 About the NeXUS Network

Gateways
A gateway connects individual physical networks into a system of networks. When a node
needs to communicate with a node on another network, a gateway transfers the data
between the two networks. The following figure shows gateway G connecting Network 1
with Network 2.

A
128.1.0.1

Network 1 128.1.0.2

G
B C 128.2.0.3

128.2.0.1 128.2.0.2
Network 2

When host B with IP address 128.2.0.1 communicates with host C, it knows from C’s IP
address that C is on the same network. In an Ethernet environment, B can then resolve C’s
IP address to a MAC address and communicate with C directly.
When host B communicates with host A, it knows from A’s IP address that A is on another
network (the net IDs are different). In order to send data to A, B must have the IP address
of the gateway connecting the two networks. In this example, the gateway’s IP address on
Network 2 is 128.2.0.3.
The gateway has two IP addresses (128.1.0.2 and 128.2.0.3). The first must be used by
hosts on Network 1 and the second must be used by hosts on Network 2. To be usable, a
host’s gateway must be addressed using a net ID matching its own.

Publication 1756-UM524B-EN-P - December 2008

 About the NeXUS Network 3-7

Subnet Mask
Subnet addressing is an extension of the IP address scheme that allows a site to use a
single net ID for multiple physical networks. Routing outside of the site continues by
dividing the IP address into a net ID and a host ID via the class. Inside a site, the subnet
mask is used to redivide the IP address into a custom net ID portion and host ID portion.
Take Network 2 (a Class B network) in the previous example and add another physical
network. Selecting the following subnet mask would add two additional net ID bits
allowing for four physical networks:

11111111 11111111 11000000 00000000 = 255.255.192.0

EXAMPLE

Two bits of the Class B host ID have been used to extend the net ID. Each unique
combination of bits in the part of the host ID where subnet mask bits are 1 specifies a
different physical network.
The new configuration is:

A
128.1.0.1

Network 1 128.1.0.2

G
B C 128.2.64.3

128.2.64.1 128.2.64.2
Network 2.1

G2
D E 128.2.128.3

128.2.128.1 128.2.128.2
Network 2.2

A second network with Hosts D and E has been added. Gateway G2 connects Network 2.1
with Network 2.2. Hosts D and E will use Gateway G2 to communicate with hosts not on
Network 2.2. Hosts B and C will use Gateway G to communicate with hosts not on
Network 2.1. When B is communicating with D, G (the configured Gateway for B) will
route the data from B to D through G2.

 Glossary

Application Program (AP) An upper layer program used for application pro-
cessing, including user processes and applications. An example of an applica-
tion program is a Logix5550 program.

Autonomous Decentralized Protocol (ADP) An Application Layer message

transfer protocol used in the NeXUS network.

BootP (Bootstrap Protocol) A low-level protocol that provides configurations

to other nodes on a TCP/IP network. BootP configuration files let you automati-
cally assign IP addresses to modules or other networked devices.

ControlBus The backplane used by the 1756 chassis. Acts as a network.

Control and Information Protocol (CIP) A communication protocol used to

transfer messages over ControlBus and ControlNet networks.

DHCP The Dynamic Host Configuration protocol (DHCP) is an Internet proto-

col, similar to BootP, for automatically configuring computers that use the
TCP/IP protocol. DHCP can be used to automatically assign IP addresses and
deliver TCP/IP stack configuration parameters (such as the subnet mask and
default router).

Ethernet A physical layer standard using Carrier sense Multiple Access with
Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) methods.

Message A basic data unit passed to the ADP by an Application Program or

delivered by the ADP to an Application Program.

NeXUS A trade name of a plant-floor TCP/IP over Ethernet type local area net-
work with the ADP protocol on the top.

NeXUS Node or Station Any PLC, computer or other physical device con-
nected to a NeXUS network.

Protocol Data Unit (PDU) PDU refers to a data unit passed to ADP from the
lower layer protocol (UDP or TCP) and vise versa. It consists of a header and a
message.

System Transaction A transaction generated when ADP detects an event (e.g.

fault status or internal status change) and is used as a notice to an application
program. The only system transaction currently defined in [1] is the Alive Sig-
nal (TCD=60003).

Publication 1756-UM524B-EN-P - December 2008

G-2 Glossary

Transaction A process within an application program (User Transaction) or a

system (System Transaction). Every transaction is identified by a unique Trans-
action Code (TCD).

Transaction Code (TCD) A unique number assign to each transaction (transac-

tion identifier). It is included in each ADP PDU header. The User Transaction
TCD range is from 1 to 59999. The System Transaction TCD range is from
60000 to 65534.

User Transaction A transaction within an application program. A TCD,

assigned by the user, is provided to ADP along with a message to be transmitted
and is included in a header of the PDU containing this message.
