How to use migration mode for changing encrypted communication
You use migration mode when you want to change the settings for encrypted communication
during ongoing operation of a plant.
You can find information on the procedure in the section "How to configure encrypted
communication between the PC stations (Page 116)".
Note
Using migration mode only temporarily
You should use migration mode only as a temporary solution when you want to change the
settings for encrypted communication throughout the plant.
Communication between PC stations with encrypted and unencrypted communication:
● Communication between computers with encrypted and unencrypted communication is
only possible when migration mode is enabled.
● Encrypted communication between PC stations is only possible when the same pre-shared
key is configured. Read the section "How to change the PSK for encrypted
communication (Page 117)"; Reacting to an inconsistent setting for encrypted
communication.
