The Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) is an industrial protocol for industrial automation applications.
It is supported by Open DeviceNet Vendors Association (ODVA), an organization that supports network
technologies based upon CIP such as DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, CIP Safety and CIP Sync.
Previously known as Control and Information Protocol, CIP encompasses a comprehensive suite of
messages and services for the collection of manufacturing automation applications - contro l, safety,
synchronization, motion, configuration and information. CIP allows users to integrate these
manufacturing applications with enterprise-level Ethernet networks and the Internet.
