Hi, Settings should be set automatically when you run SimaticRights.exe (is also activated during install like you described). Was your firewall off during installation? That is peresquite. Otherwise, you have to run Simatic rights again. Also when you change the directory of the project. Are all stations in the same network? If not, you have to do the following: Open it using the Windows start menu: Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Advanced settings. The "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" dialog opens. 2. Under "Inbound Rules", select one by one all affected firewall rules, e.g. CCAgent, WinCC ProjectManager. 3. In the "Scope" tab in the properties, add the IP addresses or IP scopes of the communication partners to "Remote IP address". BTW: Have you considered: "Encrypted communication"? You can encrypt the terminal and plant bus so it is a lot more protected against attacks from outside because stations are communicating through a shared registered key. This option is new as of PCS7 v8.1. |

Hi Mats_J, No, it's not hard to setup. What it comes down to is that you have to set each PC station to "Migration mode", so all PC stations see each other, then you will enable encrypted communication and enter a key. This you will have to do for each PC station. Afterwards, you will disable migration mode and voila. See the following manual, page 116 Hope this helps you! |
