OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS|TDC-E (Telematic Data Collector)
• In addition to managing hardware network interfaces, the Device Manager provides
network segments that facilitate network setup for different network scenarios.
• Currently, the WAN and Bridge network segments are supported.
• DHCP servers can also be activated on the TDC-E to assign IP addresses to network
clients. A DHCP server should only be assigned to secure networks.
NOTE Simultaneous use of modem and WLAN is not possible.

• Interfaces that are assigned to a bridge segment are assigned the same IP address
that was set up for the bridge. There are no security measures (e.g. firewall) or
restrictions between interfaces assigned to a bridge segment.
• Any connection to interfaces belonging to a bridge segment is considered secure and
the network operator must ensure that no security threats exist within that network
connection.
• A DHCP server can be operated via this segment.
• This segment is used to add protections (condition-oriented “firewall”) to network
connections that are considered insecure.
• Only one interface can be connected to the WAN segment, so incoming connections not
previously established by the device are blocked.
• When NAT is activated for a WAN segment, both devices connected through a bridge
segment and applications running on the device itself can connect to devices within
the network range of the WAN segment.
• If NAT is not activated, only applications on the device can connect to network devices
within the network range of the WAN segment.
