Hello dear experts. Now I'm leading a contradictory discussion with main IT administrator of company that we developed an automation system, about network topology. The system has 5 Ethernet nodes - 2 PLC's and 3 Operator panels. My opinion is that the automation system should be in a different subnets than company network, but admin insists to put in the same subnet with all company's computers (including office PC's) and devices. As an automation engineer i meet difficulties to explain to IT admin my position, but my "engineer flair" tells me that I'm right. Could you share your experience about this?
