1769-L24 with Dual Ethernet

Can these ports be configured independently? When I open the configuration, it only shows one Ethernet connection and only allows one place for an IP address. I was hoping to use this processor with one port connected to process network and other port for IO (Powerflex drives).

I'm not looking at the manual right now but I thought these had more of a built in 3 port switch than dual Ethernet.

All of the 5370 series CompactLogix have the "Device Level Ring" style port. It's a single IP address, with two media ports so it's capable of being connected in a ring or daisy-chain architecture. They are not separate ports and cannot be connected to separate networks. The best way to connect a CompactLogix to an enterprise network that is separate from the I/O network is to use a 1:1 NAT device like the 9300-ENA.
