Redundant Owner field in Network Connection Parameters

[Mark Short 0]

In the Forward Open message of EtherNet/IP, there are two Network Connection Parameters, one for Originator->Target, the other for Target->Originator.

Volume 1 of the CIP specification (3-5.4.1.1) describes the fields of the Network Connection Parameter. It explains the role Redundant Owner field for the Originator->Target direction, but makes no mention of its role for Target->Originator.

Am I right to assume that the Redundant Owner field has no role in the Target->Originator direction, and is ignored?

I would read it as required to be zero.  (Now in §3-5.5.1.1, in my version of the spec.)
