Communication via Ethernet CPs in S7 Stations Configuration and Diagnostics To connect and configure the Ethernet CP, you require the STEP 7 configuration software and the SIMATIC NET NCM S7 for Industrial Ethernet option. NCM S7 for Industrial Ethernet is installed as a STEP 7 option and is therefore integrated in STEP 7. NCM S7 for Industrial Ethernet also provides a wide range of diagnostic functions for the various types of communication. When configuring PROFInet communication, you also use
