One PROFINET network connected to the robot controller
If PROFINET is used on the public network (WAN port) without an Anybus adapter,
PROFINET cannot be used on the private network. Equipment not using PROFINET
(for example a camera) can be connected to the private network. To use PROFINET
on both the public and private network, an Anybus adapter must be used. See
Using Anybus adapter to connect two PROFINET networks on page
PROFINET on factory network
When the WAN port is used for connecting to an industrial network, the traffic
shares the same media as the factory network and will share bandwidth with other
non industrial network traffic.
The following figure illustrates the network when connecting a controller and a
device to the WAN port of the main computer:
