VPN access
VPN access (VPN = Virtual Private Network) authorises the portable device to access the
local network, and therefore also the KNX installation, via the Internet.
Benets of VPN:
• Only authorised users have access to the local network.
• All data is encrypted.
• The data is not changed, recorded or diverted during the transfer. This is often referred to
as a VPN tunnel.
Requirements for setting up a VPN connection:
• Internet connection
• The portable device and the router are prepared for a VPN connection (VPN client in-
stalled)
ATTENTION
Risk of damage to property through unauthorised access to the KNX instal-
lation.
As soon as you access the KNX installation via the Internet, the data trac can be
read by third parties.
• For this connection, use only a VPN access with secure encryption for all data
packets.
• The required hardware (VPN router) and the oerings of mobile service pro-
viders dier signicantly with regard to the settings and technical possibilities
depending on the country or region.
Always have the VPN access set up and commissioned by a specialised VPN ser-
vice provider. The VPN service provider selects a suitable mobile service provider
and the suitable hardware for the VPN access and ensures that the VPN is set up
properly.
