Huawei AR500 - AR530 as a Industrial Router; AR500 or AR530 as the Industrial Switch

2.1 AR530 as a Industrial Router
As the industrial router, the AR530 can connect a transformer substation to a dispatch center
(monitoring center) through the Internet, and establish a GRE/IPSec VPN or Dynamic Smart
Virtual Private Network (DSVPN) tunnel to secure data transmission. A transformer
substation can also use dedicated lines to connect to a dispatch center on a private network
through an AR530.
As shown in Figure 2-1, the dispatch center connects to the Internet, and transformer
substation A and transformer substation B connect to the Internet through the AR530. A GRE
VPN or IPSec VPN tunnel is established between the dispatch center and transformer
substation A/B so that the dispatch center can communicate with transformer substation A/B
and transformer substations A and B can communicate through the DSVPN tunnel.
You can also use an AR530 to directly connect the transformer substation (for example,
transformer substation C) to the dispatch center through dedicated lines to construct a private
network.
