EthernetIP and Profinet on same network infrastructure

[Lipton]

Hello 

 

I have a question regarding a network infrastructure I hope someone has experience with this

My self has very litte knowledge about Profinet.

 

So there is this site that are running a huge Profinet network and we wonder if it possible to connect two new plc on the profinet network and communicate EthernetIP between the two new NX102 cpus ?

 

Regarding profinet documention I havent found any limitation to do this, Profinet can coexist with all other ethernet based protocol ?

Yes, this should be fine

why would you want to do that? why not keep it all same?

@photovoltaic thank you.

Hi @panic mode there is a existing network infrastructure on this site and we need to add two new cpu on this network( NX we don't do siemens), to get remote access  we will use port 2 on NX102 connected to this huge profinet network also communicate with PC application with FINS on port 2

/Best Regards
