    Introduction Thank you for using Moxa’s SMG-6100 IPSec Gateway and SMG-1100 MODBUS Gateway. These products help you easily establish the secured network communication with the IPSec protection and the protocol conversion between MODBUS/Serial and MODBUS/TCP. In this manual, you will learn how to configure and monitor the SMG-6100 and the SMG-1100 for your network communication.

  • Page 5: Overview

    SMG-1100/6100 Introduction Overview The SMG-6100 can be used as a smart gateway with sophisticated Machine-to-Machine solutions to help construct a tunnel server (IPSec) and bi-directional IP communications. When used with Moxa’s SMG-1100, the SMG-6100 can serve as a secure networking host over IPSec to back-end host computers and MODBUS TCP Master/Slave devices.

  • Page 6: Configuring Ipsec Tunnels

    SMG-1100/6100 Introduction Configuring IPSec Tunnels To set up IPSec tunnels between the SMG-6100 and the remote mobile SMG (the SMG-1100), refer to the VPN(IPSec) section in the SMG Manager chapter of this manual. We strongly recommend that IPSec tunnels be configured from the SMG-6100 and deployed to the SMG-1100 at the same time via SMG Managerat the local site.

  • Page 7: Managing Modbus Gateway

    SMG-1100/6100 Introduction MODBUS RTU/ASCII Master In the MODBUS Gateway configuration for a MODBUS RTU/ASCII master and MODBUS TCP slave, the software running on each MODBUS RTU/ASCII master device sends MODBUS RTU/ASCII request messages to the MODBUS Gateway via its connected serial port. The MODBUS Gateway then converts the messages to MODBUS TCP request messages and securely sends them to MODBUS TCP slaves in MODBUS TCP slave devices via the Internet, based on slave ID values in the MODBUS request messages and settings in the MODBUS Gateway.
