Base Device
Added
Enhanced device security by introducing password protection feature, allowing users to restrict unauthorized access to critical configurations.
For details, refer to the Security Overview document.A built-in firewall has been added to control inbound traffic. When enabled, the firewall blocks all inbound traffic, allowing only explicitly defined ports necessary for communication.
Default behavior: The firewall is disabled by default.
To enable it, set the parameter
/device/network/firewall/active
totrue
and reboot the device.Outbound traffic remains unrestricted for both Ethernet interfaces. For more details, please refer to the default firewall rules section.
Important
Password protection is persisted across firmware upgrades and downgrades starting from firmware version 1.21.6 and above.
PLC Application
Added
Added support for the EtherNet/IP interface in the PLC application.
