Not us, but our customers.
Our solution is that the machine networks that we supply and the company networks aren't directly connected to each other.
There are routers between the machine and company networks.
On the machine network side there are usually fixed IP addresses. On the company network side there is what the customer wants. The two sides can still exchange data with each other, for example for ERP purposes.
If the customer insists, it is the customers IT dept. that manage these routers, with our assistance.
This seems to satisfy everyone.
