Security RouterActive componentsVirtual mapping with the Weidmüller miniRouterThe advantages of virtual mapping:– Allocation of additional IP addresses to a network interface,– IP addresses must all come from the same network as theactual router IP address on the selected network interface,– Allocation of additional IP addresses to an actually-availableIP address from another network(connected via the router) immediately forwarded to the assigned IP addresses the router to the requesting agent– enables parallel operation of multiple identically-configurednetworks behind NAT-technology routers– Machine builders can hide machines behind a routerwithout needing to change the IP configuration,– It is possible to always use the machines with theidentical configuration– NAT as an alternative to port forwarding; necessary forapplications which can not form requests combining IPaddresses with port numbers (for example, some PLCapplications)BAdvantage of virtual mapping:two identical production networksconnected to one office networkDroppedManufacture 12192.168.1.100192.168.1.101192.168.1.1021192.168.2.11192.168.1.40192.168.2.12Manufacture 22192.168.1.43Office192.168.1.200192.168.1.201192.168.1.2021192.168.2.11192.168.2.12B.53
