Gateway, namely its use as a purely software-based TAP without use of any additional devices.The following picture explains its principle of operation. Figure 3: NIOT-E-TIB100-GB-RE - Passive mode as software TAP The advantages of this application scenario are: 1. SimplicityThis application scenario offers minimum effort in circuit design .
At high demands on interruption-free operation, it makes sense to apply a hardware TAP such as the Ethernet mirror TAP netMIRROR NMR-TFE-RE from Hilscher as short-time link disruption and other back effects from the Edge Gateway to the system are excluded for this application scenario.
