Hi,

Is it possible to get remote access to customer PLC via CP 443-1 connected to global network?

How can i do it without ewon and other vpn gates?

Sorry, i'm not fully familiar with remote access field

 If there is no VPN module like Ewon or Tosibox, then the customer needs to setup a VPN configuration in their network, and give the connection details to you. Then you also need to change the IP settings, and enable the use of gateway, and give the gateway IP.

Hi Hait,

Thank you for quick response.

If customer set-up vpn connection, I must change only IP addresses of CP 443-1 or this also impact on CPU IP?

 SIMATIC NET CP 443-1 Advanced has two network cards. You need to set the Gigabit part to correspod the customers IP settings. Then the PN-IO (4ports) you have to set the IP address to same area as the PLC is. Then connect a cable from there to the CPU. That way you will have routing made to the local Profinet network also.

Thank you .

Does it mean that if i have only CP 443-1 (not advanced, only 1 interface) I need to have IP address of CPU  in the same subnet like IP of CP 443-1 ?

 No, Then you just assign the customer IP configuration to the CP card.

Sorry for keep on asking you so trivial questions, but i have another :).

Then CP route somehow by yourself this network to PLC ?

I am asking due to i don't see in hardware topology CP 443-1 although it is on rack and in run mode. Is it because of CP is not connected to profinet or something else is the reason ?
