FactoryTalk Linx Network Browser overview

The
FactoryTalk Linx
Network Browser
is an interactive network browser included with
Rockwell Automation
software applications that is used to navigate network topologies and configure the access methods used by applications to communicate with devices.
The
FactoryTalk Linx
Network Browser
creates and modifies device networking configurations. It shares networking configuration with
FactoryTalk Linx
in the
FactoryTalk Administration Console
.
IMPORTANT: Drivers cannot be configured in the embedded FactoryTalk Linx Network Browser opened from FactoryTalk Policy Manager version 6.30.00 and earlier and FactoryTalk Action Manager version 1.00.00. Open the standalone FactoryTalk Linx Network Browser to configure the driver.
TIP:
When RSLinxNG.exe, the FactoryTalk Linx service, is not running or has been restarted in the Task Manager, FactoryTalk Linx Network Browser is unable to update the network topology and will report errors if you attempt to interact with a device. To restore normal operation, close the FactoryTalk Linx Network Browser from the Windows system tray and then restart it.
