Enabling clients and configuring them for the correct port

While not directly related to secure communication, setting up each platform/station as a client and server is important for setting up basic communication relationships.

  1. If it is not already open, double-click the NiagaraNetwork node in the Nav tree of both the Supervisor and the controller stations.
    The Station Manager view opens.
  2. Double-click the client station under the client in the Database pane.
    For the Supervisorstation, this is the controller station as client; and for the controller station, this is the Supervisor station as client.
  3. For each client, confirm that the Fox Port is set to 4911, and that Use Foxs is set to true.
