Table 5- 1 Assignment Of The Ethernet Interfaces, For Example, For A Cpu 1518-4 Pn/Dp; Figure 5-5 Structure Of The Mac Address For An Instance - Siemens Simatic S7-1500 Function Manual

Structure of the MAC address for an instance
The following figure shows the structure of the dynamically generated, locally managed MAC
address:
Figure 5-5
The MAC address tells you the PC on which a PLCSIM Advanced instance has been
started.
Assignment of the Ethernet interfaces
Port configurations of the Ethernet interfaces cannot be simulated in PLCSIM Advanced
V2.0. Topological interconnection is not supported. A MAC address for a port is reserved
internally for each Ethernet interface.

IE 3
IE 3 / Port 1
Example
02-C0-A8-00-83-10 means:
02 → locally managed MAC address of a PLCSIM Advanced instance
C0-A8-00-83 → IP of the Siemens PLCSIM Virtual Ethernet adapter = 192.168.0.131
1 → Instance 1
0 → Ethernet interface IE 1
If no Virtual SIMATIC Memory Card is loaded during startup of PLCSIM Advanced, the
interfaces of PLCSIM Advanced display instances with their locally managed MAC address.
