We just setup controls for a new job, and we are having issues with a few devices dropping out of the network with what is suspected to be a duplicate IP address.
We aren't on-site anymore, so troubleshooting makes it difficult. What are your recommendations to troubleshoot? We think something might be doing DHCP on the network.
Red flag 1: there is a stratix managed switch. It was configured for VLAN. I didn't configure it.
Red flag 2: We setup some powerflex 525 drives with 25 Comm E2P adapters on them. The previous integrator had them configured so the drive was on DHCP, whereas the ethernet adaptor was a static IP. So that's how we set them up. I'm can't find much useful informaiton on AB's site to determine if this is how they are supposed to be setup, or if perhaps the DHCP on the drive is getting assigned to be a duplicate IP somewhere on the network. Here is all I could find:
