I don’t know what you’re budget is, but Real Time Automation has an 8-bit solution for the Rabbit. Be prepared to shell out about 10K though. Depending on what else the Rabbit will be doing, it will most likely be underpowered won’t be able to support much else than the Ethernet/IP protocol. You’d be better stepping into a 16-bit micro….
If you plan on being legit and joining the ODVA and getting conformance testing done, be prepared shell out a lot more cash.

Subject: [rabbit-semi] Ethernet
IP, Industrial Protocol
I'm trying to add Ethernet IP protocol as used in Allen-Bradley
PLC's
to my existing design. The Open DeviceNet
Vendor Association has the
protocol specifications and sample C code on their
web site, but the
code was written for the Microsoft Windows
platform. I'm looking for
anyone who might have already ported some or all
of the code to the
Dynamic C platform and have a library
available. I will consider 3rd
party vendors as well as fellow users of Dynamic C
willing to share
their work. Otherwise I'll have to port
the
code myself, and why
reinvent the wheel.
