3.3.2 Port Settings
NK823x
A
Requirements
TCP/IP 10BaseT (100BaseT or 100BaseT (NK823x only)), 250
Kbit/sec bandwidth required
B
Ports
● TCP Ports 20 and 21 (FTP for the configuration download
to NK823x)
● TCP Port 22 (SSH Secure Shell)
● TCP Port 20500 (if secure configuration and firmware
download is enabled)
● TCP Port 4000 for service messages
● UDP Port 47808 (hex BAC0) is default for BACnet
connectivity, but is configurable
C
Bandwidth measures
Normal operations:
● 0.1 Kbit/sec per NK823x + 0.1 Kbit/sec per control unit.
Peaks (firmware and configuration downloads):
● 64 Kbit/sec (file transfer, around 5 sec) per NK823x
D
Web server
Webserver never enabled for NK823x for Desigo CC.
Other LAN/WAN Connections for Specific Control Units
A
Requirements
Depends on communication characteristics of the control unit.
For example, a serial link at 9600 bps with LAN adapter will
require 1 Kbps.
B
TCP ports
Depends on specific communication characteristics. Typically,
this is configurable in software.
C
Bandwidth measures
Depends on specific communication characteristics.
● In case of serial links with LAN adapter, it is
recommended to consider the entire serial baud rate as
maximum impact.
3.4 Operation/Maintenance
3.4.1 Maintenance of IT Components
The preservation of IT security is an ongoing process for which the corresponding
tasks must be repeated continuously. Therefore, every security measure must be
examined whether their one-time implementation is sufficient, or a periodic
maintenance is required, such as regularly updating the antivirus software.
● Log all the maintenance actions performed.
● Install security updates regularly.
● At regular intervals, carry out a risk analysis on the security features of the
software in use.
● Observe the guidance in section IT Security in the document Desigo CC
Cybersecurity Guidelines (see Applicable Documents [➙ 4]).
3.4.2 Phase out/End of Life
Every IT component involved in the access to the Protection Zone must be
replaced when it is no longer supplied by the manufacturer with security updates. If
this EOL-IT component cannot be replaced, the Protection Zone must be
immediately disconnected from connections with untrustworthy networks.
