    IP Gateway Toolbox General Concept The Windows-based IP Gateway Toolbox software which is delivered with the IP Gateway unit, allows the system engineer to define and maintain the IP Gateway parameters. For communication over the IP network, the IP Gateway requires that a unique Gateway IP address be set, as well as other optional TCP/IP parameters.

  • Page 59: Site Configuration

    Site Configuration The IP Gateway system operates with a very wide range of communication boards which satisfy most application requirements. To make the system operation more efficient, the configuration of the IP Gateway unit should be defined. Site configuration involves the following: The ports of the IP Gateway and their parameters.

  • Page 241: Adding Terminal Server Ports

    Adding Terminal Server Ports General The IP Gateway supports on board 4 ports for MDLC communication. In case more ports are required for MDLC communications external hardware is needed. The Standard hardware for Ports extensions is a Terminal Server. The Terminal Server has an Ethernet port and many RS232 ports. It conveys communication traffic from IP to the RS232 ports and the other way around.

  • Page 242: Site Configuration For Terminal Server

    Adding Terminal Server Ports Two RS232 ports can have the same TCP port ID only if they reside in different Terminal Servers. Site Configuration for Terminal Server In order for the IP Gateway to be able to work with Terminal Server the following configuration should be applied: 1.

  • Page 243: Configuring Terminal Server To Work With Ip Gateway

    Adding Terminal Server Ports 4. Define the Terminal Server ports. Every definition includes the Terminal Server IP address, the specific TCP port assignment for every physical port, and the MDLC link ID for that port. 5. Click on the ‘Ok’ button to save the Terminal Server ports.

    Adding Terminal Server Ports The following sections contain a configuration example for the Equinox Terminal Server. However, following the guidelines described in this section should enable configuring every Terminal Server. Wiring The 8-pin connector used by the Terminal Server contains all necessary RS232 signals, but in a non standard format, Each user might output them in different pins.

    IP Gateway Redundancy A redundant IP Gateway can be configured to minimize the risk of a SCADA control center losing contact with sites, and to ensure high availability for its applications. Two IP Gateways are set up with similar configurations, except that one is designated as the primary and the other is designated as the secondary.

In this configuration, several minutes may elapse before the IP Gateway’s mode changes take effect. 3. Both IP Gateways are connected to the MOSCAD system over an IP network. Using this configuration, the IP Gateway’s mode change takes effect immediately for requests going from the IP Gateway to the RTUs.
