I tried 233 (redundant Ethernet) to Gateway (Schneider Bridge
174CEV20040)
To cut a long story short it didn't work
To also shorten the reasoning the fbm 232/233 is working as designed and
its not designed to work with a bridge this car is now closed.

The core of the problem...
the fbm must see a unique IP address for each PLC
if it's a 233 the backup address must also be unique.=20
The FDSI driver will not allow an IP address to be used twice we tried
to trick the fbm by entering in an address as dotless decimal but the
fbm tricked us by making the FCP go single

So if you put a gateway in per PLC it may work=20

Our PLC's are modicon and they are all on the same MB+ network so we can
create a PostBox PLC to do all our mapping for us but this makes all the
PLC data look like its in 1 PLC

We have costed up converting to Industrial Ethernet and are now just
sitting and waiting for the money
