What is the difference between Ethernet/IP and TCP/IP?

When it comes to the industrial protocols that we support here at Robotiq, one of the most frequent questions that gets asked is certainly: what is the difference between Ethernet/IP and TCP/IP? Indeed, for a person unfamiliar with this subject, this can be quite confusing. In our daily lives, when we connect a PC to a network, we need to plug a cable into an ethernet card. However, to access the web, we have to configure our TCP/IP settings. And what does IP stands for again? Well, good question because the answer is: it depends! Let's take a few minutes to demystify all of this.
