Configure the Network Setup Page

Select the network model to be applied to this Plant SCADA computer. The options include:

• Stand alone (no other SCADA computers)

• Networked (connect to other SCADA computers)

  Note: TCP/IP address information for servers is configured within the Plant SCADA project itself. See Add a Network Address for more information.

Stand alone

Select stand alone to run all server and client components of a Plant SCADA system on a single computer. This allows you to run Plant SCADA as a small and self-contained system.

Networked

Select Networked to connect to a system of multiple Plant SCADA computers configured with different server and client components. In a Networked setup where hostnames are used to resolve IP addresses, specify the following:

• Select network address type from the Address Type drop-down list (refer to [LAN]AddressType).

• For an IPv6 Address Type, select the Address Scope from the drop-down list (refer to [LAN]AddressScope).

Refer to the following table for information regarding the status of a server with respect to the computer network configuration, the Address Type and the Address Scope selection.

When you complete the Profile Setup Wizard, the selected network model is written to the [LAN] section in the ini file; for example:

...
[LAN]
TCPIP=1
...
