Hi everyone, I am still fairly new to my current company. Upon inspecting our gateway, I noticed a few of our Allen-Bradley PLCs have diagnostics like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/2/c2327e8eb376ed059b2177b709e172e8c764a424.png) I reviewed the documentation on [Inductive’s website](https://www.docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/platform/gateway/status/connections/connections-devices) but I am not sure what I need to do to fix these controllers. Can someone provide some insight/resources on what is happening with these controllers? They’re working just fine but I don’t think the numbers I am seeing are a good sign. ---

What are the CIP and number of connections set to in the driver config? Are you reading alot of AOI tags? ---

Check out this thread for a lot of info on optimizing Logix communications. Be aware that some of this may require you to made offline changes to the PLC program to allow optimized communications, especially if you’re using PlantPAx AOIs. > [@Ignition & Logix Best Practice Tips for better communications](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-logix-best-practice-tips-for-better-communications/60386): > > Hi All, After a whole bunch of issues I have gone down the rabbit hole of what is wrong with our setup on site. I will preface this by saying I a relatively new to all of this.... so be gentle stuck_out_tongue Based on much reading(such wow) I believe I have a list of things our site could take away for a better system. Some of them are easy to implement, whilst some of them need... significant work to realize. Especially the AOI approach in point 5 expressionless Before going too far a… ---

Sorry for the delay. I haven’t had a chance to dig into these PLCs yet. I have no idea what the configuration looks like. We are in some kind of contract that voids are warranty if we make changes to the PLC. I will try to get back with what information I find.
