Communication via SINEMA Remote Connect (SINEMA RC)
The "SINEMA RC Server" application provides end-to-end connection management of
distributed networks via the Internet. This also includes secure remote access to lower-level
stations. Communication between SINEMA RC Server and the remote devices takes place
via a VPN tunnel with consideration of the stored access rights.
SINEMA RC uses OpenVPN for encryption of the data. The center of the communication is
SINEMA RC Server via which communication runs between the subscribers and that
manages the configuration of the communications system.
SCALANCE M routers, which you can use for the connection, also support OpenVPN and
connection to SINEMA Remote Connect.
The CP can also handle telecontrol communication via the SINEMA RC server.
