2 Hardware setup
The aim of the following application example is to establish communication
between 2 PCs. Diagnostics need to be checked with a ping command from PC 1
to PC 2.
The following figures show the physical network structure.
The document explains 2 different hardware configurations:
• Hardware configuration with XM408-8C (no firewall)
• Hardware configuration with S615 (with firewall)
The Figure below shows the hardware setup with the SCALANCE XM408-8C.
