  • Page 39: Communication Types

    Configuration 4.4 Communication types Communication types In this parameter group, you enable the communication type of the CP. To minimize the risk of unauthorized access to the station via Ethernet, you need to enable the communications services that the CP will execute individually. You can enable all options but at least one option should be enabled.
  • Page 40 Configuration 4.5 Ethernet interface (X1) > Advanced options to the individual partner. The value of 180 seconds preset on the Ethernet interface is adopted for the individual partners.

    Configuration 4.8 Security 4. Now select the CP in the S7 station. 5. Enable the advanced firewall mode in the local security settings of the CP in the "Security > Firewall" parameter group. 6. Open the "IP rules" parameter group. 7.
  • Page 51 Configuration 4.8 Security Configuration with the CP Selection of the synchronization method Depending on the configured communication types and security functions, time-of-day synchronization is configured differently: ● Telecontrol communication enabled With telecontrol communication enabled, the time of day of the CP is synchronized automatically by the TCSB computer.
  • Page 52 Configuration 4.8 Security Time-of-day synchronization of the CPU As the synchronization method, with the CPU only NTP can be selected. If for the CPU the option "CPU synchronizes the modules of the device" is enabled, all smart modules of the station (CPs as of firmware V2.1.7) are synchronized with the CPU time in a synchronization cycle of 10 seconds.

  • Page 55: Certificate Manager

    If you use communication with authentication for the CP, for example SSL/TLS for secure transfer of e-mails, certificates are required. You need to import certificates of non-Siemens communications partners into the STEP 7 project and download them to the CP with the configuration data: 1.

  • Page 56: Handling Certificates

    The table also shows all other certificates generated by STEP 7 and all imported certificates. If the CP communicates with non-Siemens partners when the security functions are enabled, the relevant certificates of the communications partners must be exchanged. To do this, follow the steps below: 1.
  • Page 57 Configuration 4.8 Security Assigning certificates locally To be able to use an imported certificate for the CP, you need to specify it in the "Security" parameter group of the CP. Follow the steps outlined below: 1. In the STEP 7 project select the CP. 2.
