MANAGING VLANS AND BBMDS ON AN OT NETWORK
If you’ve worked within a BACnet/IP environment for a while, you’ve probably encountered or defined your own VLAN. VLANs can be used just like physical BACnet switches to isolate BACnet devices into different segments to reduce broadcast traffic across the entire network or to segment devices based on physical location, function, or security requirements.
IS BACNET/SC THE KEY TO SECURING OT NETWORKS?
The success of BACnet/SC will depend on how widely it is adopted and how well it integrates with other security technologies. That said, with the right implementation strategies, and a focus on maintaining flexibility and interoperability, BACnet/SC has the potential to play a central role in securing OT networks against future threats.
What is KNX?
BACnet gets compared to a lot of other protocols on the market, including LonWorks, Modbus, and KNX. We’re explaining how each of these protocols are different, and how they stack up against each other. In this article, learn about KNX.
WHAT IS A BACNET ROUTER AND GATEWAY?
The router and gateway play key roles in your BACnet network, and are often easily mixed up. It’s important to understand how these disparate parts communicate with one another.
