Hi everyone. We are looking to connect some of our PLC's (AB), Remote I/O (AB) and Injection Molding machines to Ignition SCADA. This will also allow us to connect to machines at our desk or home through VPN.
We are planning to do a converged network. Unmanaged switches on the plant floor. They will then get connected to a managed switch. I believe the managed switch has to be a Layer3 switch? The managed switch will connect to the business network.
I am having a hard time selecting unmanaged and managed switches. Let me know what you recommend and what to avoid. Thanks.
