The EtherNet/IP interoperability recommendations are a result of work generated by the ongoing series of EtherNet/IP Implementors Workshops. The recommendations were created to promote EtherNet/IP device interoperability through product functionality recommendations and interoperability validation events called PlugFest. The document Recommended Functionality for EtherNet/IP Devices has been updated to include product implementation clarifications, performance metrics and new interoperability recommendations. This paper describes the new performance and interoperability recommendations for EtherNet/IP devices.
