4 Introduction
The industrial firewall forms the link between the IT world and the automation system and meets the
requirements of IT security as well as of the maintenance personnel in the production facility. It allows
the network as well as access to this network to be monitored. A fundamental protective mechanism is
situation-dependent and physical network disconnection. It additionally provides safe access for service
purposes.

4.2 Digital input
In critical commissioning or production phases, the Ethernet uplink can be disconnected via a 24 V
input. Deliberate or inadvertent external manipulation is thereby made impossible.
The uplink is reconnected via the same input. This function makes integration in an automation concept
extremely easy.
4.3 Eventlog
If the firewall is not disconnected from the power supply, an event log saves all events. The event log
can be read out both locally and via a central syslog server.
4.4 Mobile radio modem (optional)
The integrated LTE modem enables mobile radio connections.
