Demonstrating Edge Forwarding Setup on a SCADAPack 47xi

Edge Forwarding allows a user to access the Linux board while being connected to one of the RTU Ethernet Ports (ETH1 or ETH2)

For this example, Enable SSH Server (Edge Platform) under Ethernet >  Services.

Enable SSH Server (Edge Platform)

ETH1 on SP474i was configured for 10.10.10.11 and Enable Edge Forwarding was checked off.

Enabling Edge Forwarding on Ethernet port 1

The PC Ethernet port was configured for IP address 10.10.10.100 to be part of the same network subnet and it could ping ETH1 of the SCADAPack without issue.

Now, using Putty with SSH targeting the RTU board 10.10.10.11

Configuration for Putty to connect to SCADAPack

And with the Mode switch (rotary dial) set to F=PRVL, the user could log in as root using the appropriate password to access the Edge board.
