monitor Interface and Media counters. The counters are available and

Ethernet Host Name
Micro800 controllers implement unique host names for each controller, to be
used to identify the controller on the network. The default host name is
comprised of two parts: product type and MAC address, separated by a hyphen.
For example: 2080LC50-xxxxxxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxxxxxx is the MAC
address.
The user can change the host name using the CIP Service Set Attribute Single
when the controller is in Program/Remote Program mode.
Configure CIP Serial Driver
1. Open your Connected Components Workbench project. On the device
configuration tree, go to the Controller properties. Click Serial port.
2. Select CIP Serial from the Driver field.
