Hey guys,
We have a standard "OEM" setup in our systems with a 1769-L32E and a panelview 400. When we have issues we need to troubleshoot or changes we need to make it is simply a matter of forwarding port 44818 from the WAN to the PLC IP address. My question is how would I be able to make the HMI and the PLC available on the WAN. For example, the client wants to change some fundamental functionality of the system which requires a new HMI screen to be added into the Panelview. I know I could direct say port 40000 to 44818 at the HMI and port 44818 to 44818 at the PLC but from my understanding the software is expecting to communicate to both on port 44818.
Any help?
