Automation (IA) protocol support varies among products; for more details,
see "Communication protocols supported in devices" on page 126.

based masters, destination tables, route entries within destination tables,
or control behavior of specific protocols.
Recommendations on configuring Industrial Automation
The manual configuration of Industrial Automation in the current firmware is
much more flexible than past versions, which also means that manual
configuration through the Command-Line interface is much more complex.
New users are advised to use the Web Browser interface to rough out your
configuration first, as documented in the Digi One and PortServer TS
Family User’s Guide, and then examine and fine-tune the configuration
from the Command Line if required. More specific details are available in
the IA application help available at this URL:
