Gateways - Siemens SIMATIC NET System Manual

Gateways allow the connection of Industrial Ethernet networks and other networks that differ
in terms of the transmission media and handling of the data traffic. This makes data
exchange possible with devices that cannot be connected directly to Industrial Ethernet.
