Systems that rely on a central ControlLogix communicating to a number of remote DNP3
devices, (e.g. Eletrical Protection Units or Intelligent Relays), may find the DNP3 Router useful
when operating in Scheduled Tag Mode as shown in the image above. The module will
exchange data between the DNP3 device and Logix platform at a configured interval without
any need for additional coding or mapping.
Figure 1.4. – Example of a typical network setup when using secure authentication
The DNP3 Router also provides the latest DNP3 Secure Authentication 5 standard which
allows for secure authentication across the DNP3 network (Serial or Ethernet). The need for
network security is essential to utility installations and operations to prevent unwanted
attacks from outsiders. The DNP3 Router allows the user to configure the type and level of
security needed with minimal effort.
