Note:
IP addresses of the controllers must be accessible from the IV13T. If the IV13T is connected to another
LAN segment than the gen-sets are, there must be a gateway (router) that enables direct traffic between the
segments. If the IV13T is connected via the Internet, then the internet gateway of the LAN where gen-sets are
connected must have public IP address, must allow incoming traffic and must provide port forwarding from the
external public IP to the various internal gen-set IPs according to the port used.

5.2.2 Ethernet (Internet) connection via InternetBridge-NT
Even though the software allows to configure up to 32 controllers
the hardware is designed for simultaneous
monitoring and control of up to 4 controllers only.
The response time of a system with this type of
connection depends on the number of controllers. The higher the number of controllers, the slower the system
response time. It is also possible to interconnect IV13T and controllers locally via InternetBridge-NT as a local
bridge from the Ethernet network to the CAN fieldbus or RS-485 interface.
