Security recommendations 3
NOTICE
Information security
Connect to the device and change the standard password for the user set in the factory "admin"
and "" before you operate the device.

To prevent unauthorized access to the device and/or network, observe the following security
recommendations.

General
• Check the device regularly to ensure that these recommendations and/or other internal
security policies are complied with.
• Evaluate the security of your location and use a cell protection concept with suitable products
(https://www.industry.siemens.com/topics/global/en/industrial-security/pages/
default.aspx).
• When the internal and external network are disconnected, an attacker cannot access internal
data from the outside. Therefore operate the device only within a protected network area.
• No product liability will be accepted for operation in a non-secure infrastructure.
• Use VPN to encrypt and authenticate communication from and to the devices.
• For data transmission via a non-secure network, use an encrypted VPN tunnel (IPsec,
OpenVPN).
• Separate connections correctly (WBM, SSH etc.).
• Check the user documentation of other Siemens products that are used together with the
device for additional security recommendations.
• Using remote logging, ensure that the system protocols are forwarded to a central logging
server. Make sure that the server is within the protected network and check the protocols
regularly for potential security violations or vulnerabilities.

Physical access
• Restrict physical access to the device to qualified personnel because the plug-in data medium
can contain sensitive data.
• Lock unused physical interfaces on the device. Unused interfaces can be used to gain access
to the plant without permission.

Operating Instructions, 02/2023, C79000-G8976-C442-14 15
Security recommendations

Software (security functions)

• Keep the firmware up to date. Check regularly for security updates for the device. You can
find information on this at the Industrial Security (https://www.siemens.com/
industrialsecurity) website.
• Inform yourself regularly about security recommendations published by Siemens
ProductCERT (https://www.siemens.com/cert/en/cert-security-advisories.htm).
• Only activate protocols that you require to use the device.
• Restrict access to the management of the device with rules in an access control list (ACL).
• The option of VLAN structuring provides protection against DoS attacks and unauthorized
access. Check whether this is practical or useful in your environment.
• Use a central logging server to log changes and accesses. Operate your logging server within
the protected network area and check the logging information regularly.

Authentication

Note
Accessibility risk - Risk of data loss
Do not lose the passwords for the device. Access to the device can only be restored by resetting
the device to factory settings which completely removes all configuration data.

• Replace the default passwords for all user accounts, access modes and applications (if
applicable) before you use the device.
• Define rules for the assignment of passwords.
• Use passwords with a high password strength. Avoid weak passwords, (e.g. password1,
123456789, abcdefgh) or recurring characters (e.g. abcabc).
This recommendation also applies to symmetrical passwords/keys configured on the device.
• Make sure that passwords are protected and only disclosed to authorized personnel.
• Do not use the same passwords for multiple user names and systems.
• Store the passwords in a safe location (not online) to have them available if they are lost.
• Regularly change your passwords to increase security.
• A password must be changed if it is known or suspected to be known by unauthorized
persons.
• When user authentication is performed via RADIUS, make sure that all communication takes
place within the security environment or is protected by a secure channel.
• Watch out for link layer protocols that do not offer their own authentication between
endpoints, such as ARP or IPv4. An attacker could use vulnerabilities in these protocols to
attack hosts, switches and routers connected to your layer 2 network, for example, through
manipulation (poisoning) of the ARP caches of systems in the subnet and subsequent
interception of the data traffic. Appropriate security measures must be taken for non-secure
layer 2 protocols to prevent unauthorized access to the network. Physical access to the local
network can be secured or secure, higher layer protocols can be used, among other things.

 Security recommendations

Certificates and keys

• There is a preset SSL/TLS (RSA) certificate with 2048 bit key length in the device. Replace this
certificate with a user-generated, high-quality certificate with key. Use a certificate signed by
a reliable external or internal certification authority. You can install the certificate via the
WBM ("System > Load and Save").
• Use certificates with a key length of 4096 bits.
• Use the certification authority including key revocation and management to sign the
certificates.
• Make sure that user-defined private keys are protected and inaccessible to unauthorized
persons.
• If there is a suspected security violation, change all certificates and keys immediately.
• Use password-protected certificates in the format "PKCS #12".
• Verify certificates based on the fingerprint on the server and client side to prevent "man in the
middle" attacks. Use a second, secure transmission path for this.
• Before sending the device to Siemens for repair, replace the current certificates and keys with
temporary disposable certificates and keys, which can be destroyed when the device is
returned.

Secure/non-secure protocols and services

• Avoid or disable non-secure protocols and services, for example HTTP, Telnet and TFTP. For
historical reasons, these protocols are available, however not intended for secure
applications. Use non-secure protocols on the device with caution.
• Check whether use of the following protocols and services is necessary:
– Non authenticated and unencrypted ports
– MRP, HRP
– IGMP snooping
– LLDP
– DCP
– Syslog
– RADIUS
– DHCP Options 66/67
– TFTP
– GMRP and GVRP

Security recommendations

• The following protocols provide secure alternatives:

– HTTP → HTTPS
– Telnet → SSH
– SNMPv1/v2c → SNMPv3
Check whether use of SNMPv1/v2c. is necessary. SNMPv1/v2c is classified as non-secure.
Use the option of preventing write access. The device provides you with suitable setting
options.
If SNMP is enabled, change the community names. If no unrestricted access is necessary,
restrict access with SNMP.
Use the authentication and encryption mechanisms of SNMPv3.
– TFTP → SFTP
– NTP → NTPsecure
• Use secure protocols when access to the device is not prevented by physical protection
measures.
• If you require non-secure protocols and services, operate the device only within a protected
network area.
• Restrict the services and protocols available to the outside to a minimum.
• If you use RADIUS for management access to the device, activate secure protocols and
services.

Interfaces security
• Disable unused interfaces.
• Use IEEE 802.1X for interface authentication.
• Use the function "Locked Ports" to block interfaces for unknown nodes.
• Use the configuration options of the interfaces, e.g. the "Edge Type".
• Configure the receive ports so that they discard all untagged frames ("Tagged Frames Only").

 Description of the device
4.6 C-PLUG

Saving the configuration data

A C-PLUG is an exchangeable storage medium for storing the configuration data of the device.
This allows fast and uncomplicated replacement of a device. The C-PLUG is taken from the
previous device and inserted in the new device. The first time it is started up, the replacement
device has the same configuration as the previous device except for the device-specific MAC
address set by the vendor.
A C-PLUG stores the current information about the configuration of a device.

Note
The device can also be operated without a C-PLUG.

How it works

Operating mode
In terms of the C-PLUG, there are three modes for the device:
• Without C-PLUG
The device stores the configuration in internal memory.
This mode is active if no C-PLUG is inserted.
• With unwritten C-PLUG
If an unwritten C-PLUG (factory status or deleted with Clean function) is used, the local
configuration already existing on the device is automatically stored on the inserted C-PLUG
during startup.
This mode is active as soon as an unwritten C-PLUG is inserted.
• With written C-PLUG
A device with a written and accepted C-PLUG uses the configuration data of the C-PLUG
automatically when it starts up. The requirement for acceptance is that the data was written
by a compatible device type.
If there is configuration data in the internal memory of the device this is overwritten.
This mode is active as soon as a written C-PLUG is inserted.

Operation with C-PLUG

The configuration stored on the C-PLUG is displayed over the user interfaces.
If changes are made to the configuration, the device stores the configuration directly on the
C-PLUG, if this is in the "ACCEPTED" status and in internal memory.

Response to errors
Inserting a C-PLUG that does not contain the configuration of a compatible device type and
inadvertently removing the C-PLUG, or general malfunctions of the C-PLUG are indicated by the
diagnostic mechanisms of the device.

Inserting a C-PLUG

1. Turn off the power to the device.

2. The housing of the C-PLUG has a protruding ridge on the long side (B). The slot has a groove
at this position. Insert the C-PLUG correctly oriented into the slot.

4.7 Combo ports

Characteristics
Combo port is the name for two communication ports. A combo port has the two following jacks:
• a fixed RJ-45 port
• an SFP transceiver slot that can be equipped individually
Of these two ports, only one can ever be active. Using the mode, you can decide how the
ports are prioritized.
The port name is the same on both jacks of the combo port, for example "PxC".
There is an LED for each combo port. The LEDs for the combo ports can be identified by a vertical
line and the word "COMBO". The labeling of the combo port LEDs does not differ from that of the
other LEDs, e.g. "P3".

Setting the mode

The following modes can be configured for a combo port:
• Mode 1: auto
The SFP transceiver port has priority. As soon as an SFP transceiver is plugged in, an existing
connection at the fixed RJ-45 port is terminated. If no SFC transceiver is plugged in, a
connection can be established via the fixed RJ-45 port.
• Mode 2: rj45
The fixed RJ-45 port is independent of the SFP transceiver port.
• Mode 3: sfp
The pluggable transceiver port is used independent of the fixed RJ-45 port.
The factory setting for the combo ports is mode 1: auto
You configure the mode with Web Based Management or the Command Line Interface.

Connecting multiple to a 54 V DC power supply unit

If you connect multiple devices with a 54 V DC power supply (e.g. XC-200G PoE) to a 54 V DC
power supply, note the following for the communication connection between these devices:
• Use ports that do not support PoE for the communication connection, if possible.
• If you connect the devices via PoE ports, the PoE ports must be galvanically isolated (e.g. via
a network disconnector).

6.8 Signaling contact

Information on the signaling contact

• The signaling contact is a floating switch that signals error statuses by opening the contact.
The signaling contact must be operated within the range of the operating voltage.
If an error/fault occurs, the signaling contact opens. In normal operation, the signaling
contact is closed.
• The signaling contact is connected using a 2-pin plug-in terminal block (spring-loaded
terminal). The terminal block ships with the device and can also be ordered as a spare part,
see section "Product overview (Page 23)".
• Note the wiring rules (Page 81).

NOTICE
Damage due to voltage being too high
You can load the signaling contact with the operating voltage of the device and a maximum of
100 mA.

Signaling faults
• The signaling of errors by the signaling contact is synchronized with the fault LED "F", see
section ""F" LED (Page 47)".
All errors that the fault LED "F" indicates (freely configurable) are also signaled by the
signaling contact.
• If an internal fault occurs, the fault LED "F" lights up and the signaling contact opens.
• If you connect a communications node to an unmonitored port or disconnect it, this does not
cause an error message.
• The signaling contact remains open until one of the following events occurs:
– The problem is eliminated.
– The current status is entered in the fault mask as the new desired status.

6.9 Functional ground

EMC disturbances are diverted to ground via the functional ground. This ensures the immunity
of the data transmission.
The functional ground must be implemented with low impedance. The connection of the
functional ground must be established directly on the mounting plate or the DIN rail terminal.
The IE switch has a grounding screw (fillister head screw with clamping washer und disk) for
functional ground, refer to the section "Device views (Page 29)".
The grounding screw is identified by the following symbol for the functional ground .
Follow the steps below to connect the functional ground:

① Grounding terminal with cable

② Fillister head screw with spring washer and washer

1. Loosen the grounding screw).

2. Put the grounding terminal and grounding screw together.
3. Tighten the grounding screw with a maximum torque of 0.75 Nm.

Protective/functional ground

The connection of the reference potential surface with the protective ground system is normally
in the cabinet close to the power feed-in. This ground conducts fault currents to ground safely
and according DIN/VDE 0100 is a protective ground to protect people, animals and property from
too high contact voltages.
Apart from the protective ground, there is functional grounding in the cabinet. According
to EN60204-1 (DIN/VDE 0113 T1) electrical circuits must be grounded. The chassis (0 V) is
grounded at one defined point. Here, once again the grounding is implemented with the
lowest leakage resistance to ground in the vicinity of the power feed-in.
With automation components, functional ground also ensures interference-free operation of
a controller. Via the functional ground, interference currents coupled in via the connecting
cables are discharged to ground.

6.10 Serial interface

Information on the serial interface

• Via the serial interface on the device (RJ-11 jack), you can access the Command Line Interface
of the device directly via an RS-232 (115200 8N1) connection without assigning an IP
address.
• Access to the device is possible independent of the Ethernet ports.
• To connect the serial interface to a PC, you require a cable with an RJ-11 plug and 9-pin D-sub
female connector. The connecting cable for the serial interface can be ordered as an
accessory, see section "Accessories (Page 39)".

MDI / MDI-X autocrossover

With the MPI/MDI-X autocrossover function, the send and receive contacts of an Ethernet port
are assigned automatically. The assignment depends on the cable with which the
communications partner is connected. This means that it does not matter whether the port is
connected using a patch cable or crossover cable. This prevents malfunctions resulting from
mismatching send and receive wires. This makes installation much easier for the user.

Note
Formation of loops
Please note that the direct connection of two ports on the IE switch or accidental connection
over several IE switches causes an illegal loop. Such a loop can lead to network overload and
network failures.

Autonegotiation
Autonegotiation means the automatic detection/negotiation of the transmission rate and the
operating mode of ports at the opposite end. This makes it possible to configure different devices
automatically.
Two components connected to a link segment can exchange information about the transfer
and can adapt their settings to each other. The mode with the highest possible speed is set.

Note
• If a port is set permanently to full duplex, the connected partner port must also be set to full
duplex.
• If a port operating in the "Auto negotiation" mode is connected to a partner port that is not
operating in the"Auto negotiation" mode, the partner port setting must be fixed at 100 Mbps
or 10 Mbps half duplex mode.
• If you disable the "Auto negotiation" function, the "MDI/MDI-X autocrossover" function is also
turned off. Then use a crossover cable.

8.1 Downloading new firmware using TFTP without WBM and CLI

Firmware
The firmware is signed and encrypted. This ensures that only firmware created by Siemens can
be downloaded to the device.

Procedure with Microsoft Windows

You can download new firmware to the device using TFTP. To do this, the device does not need
to be reachable either using Web Based Management (WBM) or using the Command Line
Interface (CLI). This can be the case if there was a power failure during a firmware update.
When pressing the button, observe the information in the section "SELECT / SET button
(Page 44)".
Follow the steps below to load new firmware using TFTP:
1. Turn off the power to the device.
2. Press the SELECT/SET button and reconnect the device to the power supply with the button
pressed.
3. Hold down the button until the red fault LED "F" starts to flash.
4. Release the button as long as the red error LED is still flashing..
This time only lasts a few seconds.
The bootloader of the device waits in this status for a new firmware file that you can
download by TFTP.
5. Connect a PC to an Ethernet port of the device with an Ethernet cable.
6. Assign an IP address to the device using DHCP or SINEC PNI.
7. In a Windows command prompt, go to the directory where the file with the new firmware is
located and use the following command:
tftp -i <IP address> put <firmware file>.
Note
You can enable TFTP in Microsoft Windows as follows:
"Control Panel" > "Programs and Features" > "Turn Windows features on or off" > "TFTP Client".
Once the firmware has been transferred completely to the device and validated, the device
restarts. This may take a few minutes.
