6.2.3 Allowing access to network devices (firewall)
Generally, a firewall monitoring access of the PC to the network
and vice versa is installed on the PC. Therefore, you must allow
access to the Test Controller or the module, otherwise no connec-
tion can be established via Ethernet. On the first attempt to
estab
lish a connection you receive a message similar to that
shown in Fig. 6-7. Click on Unblock to
allow the connection.
You must possess administrator rights on the PC to be able to
unblock the connection. If this is not the case, ask your adminis
-
trator to do this for you. You must enable all programs for sharing
which use an
Ethernet connection to the modules or the Test
Controllers.
