Industrial Ethernet

Security RouterActive componentsRouters – gateways between Ethernet worldsWe Bring Top-level Security to the NetBIndustrial networks and office networks run on the sameEthernet standards, and yet they are totally different:while large amounts of data and, as a result, a certain“inertia” of the network are totally acceptable in officenetworks, excessive response times may lead to stalling,errors, hence to the generation of considerable costs, inindustrial networks.Communication networks used for office applications and forautomation are converging. The advantages that result from thisprocess are put into practice more and more frequently becausethey make procedures more transparent and facilitate dataexchange substantially.Weidmüller Industrial Routers ensure that different networksinteroperate in unison and with top-level security.details, such as ports. The configuration software does this jobfor you. A few mouse clicks is all it takes to have your firewallready for operation.Intelligent Firewall: Stateful Package InspectionOur routers ship with firewalls that adapt automatically to thenetwork traffic they see (Stateful Package Inspection). Theyrecognize the messages that are stateful, i.e., legitimized,and let them pass. Unidentified packets are kept out of yourindustrial networks.Private Network 192.168.1.0FirewallProduction System in aProtected Industrial NetworkPrivate Network 192.168.1.0Customer’s NetworkWWW.Router Configurator: remote access from around theworld to your router for maintenance and supportTo customize the routers in order to get the optimum out ofthem, you can choose to tailor them exactly to your needs viaa web browser, via SNMP, or using Weidmüller’s managementsoftware called “Configurator.”The “Configurator” allows reliable remote maintenance of yoursystems around the world.
