Advice Please. Talking to a PLC through Ethernet IP.

Hello, I just got a project and I'm a little unsure where to start. All I was told that I need to create a project that reads and writes data to a CompactLogix PLC using Ethernet/IP. I need some links/ideas for how to start wrapping my head around this type of communication. Really anything would be helpful. Do I technically not set up a device under the project tree on the labview side, just VIs that use the address? Thank you.
