What is one of the key differences between industrial and I.T communication?
Industrial communication involves a larger set of communication devices
What is the purpose of Industrial Ethernet?
To provide deterministic communication between machine controllers, actuators, and sensors
Which approach to deliver determinism in Industrial Ethernet uses standard Ethernet with TCP/IP and a built-in application layer mechanism?
Standard-Software Standard-Ethernet
What is a well-known industrial Ethernet protocol based entirely on Ethernet standards?
Ethernet/IP
What is the main function of Open-Software Modified-Ethernet in Industrial Ethernet?
To ensure determinism using standard Ethernet hardware, new protocols, and complementary hardware
What is one of the characteristics of Ethernet/IP protocol?
It can support an unlimited number of nodes
What does Industrial Ethernet use to ensure the reliability and availability of data transmission?
Standard Ethernet hardware and TCP/IP protocol with a proprietary application layer
What is the primary use of PLCs in industrial communication?
To control machine operations and processes
What is a key feature of Industrial Ethernet communication?
Deterministic communication between machine controllers, actuators, and sensors
What is the main purpose of Industrial Ethernet protocols like EtherCAT and PROFINET?
To provide deterministic communication in industrial environments
What is the role of sensors in industrial communication?
To collect data and provide input for control systems
What is the primary function of actuators in industrial communication?
To convert control signals into physical action
What is the primary purpose of logical networks in the context of network access policies?
To provision devices based on network access policies
What are the defined points of connection in the context of logical networks?
Switch ports or SSIDs
Why is the firewall not considered a point of connection in the example provided?
Endpoints would not normally directly connect to it
What does the AP-1 column in the example represent?
Access values that may be vendor specific
How do logical networks contribute to the management of network access policies?
Greatly decrease the number of network access policies
In the context of logical networks, what is the role of V-LAN 80?
Provisioning devices identified as cameras
What is the purpose of the values designated in the AP-1 column?
To provide vendor-specific access values
How are devices provisioned to different V-LANs based on the example provided?
Based on the switch to which the device is connected
What is the primary function of the Firewall column in the context of the example?
Represent a firewall tag that would result in the camera matching a specific firewall policy
How do logical networks contribute to the segmentation of endpoints?
By supporting endpoint-based segmentation
What is the significance of the access values in the AP-1 column?
They may be vendor specific
How do logical networks impact the number of network access policies?
Greatly decrease the number of network access policies
