Hi,
We are looking to put an MES system in at my factory. I have worked for OEM companies, but not really much on MES. I have noticed at other factories I've worked at that they add a new comms / CP / ethernet card which is configured in the IP range / subnet for the LAN used for the site, making it a separate network from the profinet devices.
Is this the best and normal practice when doing connecting an MES system?
Thanks in advance.
