Hi all,
I am trying to connect to a X90 module that is behind a firewall. I have redirected successfully port for web (80), ftp (21), and ANSL on 11169. It all works excepts for the ANSL 11169 port: connection to target fails even hough the redirection is correctly in place (tested with Test-NetConnection 10.X.Y.10 -Port 11169, where 10.X.Y.10 is the router/firewall IP.
I am setting the target router IP in AS 4.12, with the correct port number.
Is there anything else I need to know to make it work ?
Best regards and thanks for your help
Hi,
ANSL online connection is a pure TCP-based communication on port 11169 (this port is default for “ANSL unsecured” but can be changed in the project).
So if Web and FTP is working, there must be some other issue then the protocol itself.
You wrote “redirected”, and some sentences later “target router IP”.
So I’m a bit confused: do you use Port Forwarding, or IP routing, and what’s the target router IP, is it the router (doing the port forwarding?) set as Default Gateway in the PLC?
Maybe you could explain a bit more your setup (including the network settings of the PLC), so that we get a better impression of it?
But as already said: HTTP, FTP and ANSL are all based on native TCP - so if one TCP connections works, all of them should do so…
Best regards!
Hello,
Don’t you have secured ANSL where the port is 11179?
