1.2 Solution
The solution to enable temporary access from the ES to the PROFINET fieldbus is
the Service Bridge. This is a specially configured switch that enables dedicated
temporary access from the system bus to the fieldbus while ensuring logical
separation between the fieldbuses. For security reasons, it is also recommended
that a firewall, e.g. in the form of a SCALANCE SC, be provided between the plant
bus and the service bridge.
Figure 1-2
The basis for the Service Bridge are the switches of the SCALANCE XC-200 series
from FW V4.0.
This application example uses the SCALANCE XC216 as an example to describe
the steps required to configure a SCALANCE XC-200 switch as a service bridge.
To facilitate configuration, this article also provides a prepared configuration file for
download.
