between an S7 station and an engineering station with a security CP (for example CP 1628),
the following requirements must be met:
●
The two stations have been configured.
●
The CPs in both stations must support the security functions.
●
The Ethernet interfaces of the two stations must be networked.
Note
Communication also possible via an IP router

communications path, however, you need to make further settings.
