Virtual Appliances Network settings
SICON.OS Edge Software is the link between the shop floor [OT] and the office [IT] network. This requires 2 separate networks.
The IT-Networks is configured as DHCP Client.
The OT-Network has a fixed IP-Address (192.168.77.220) as preconfigured.
We recommend the use of NAT and Bridged under VMware and Virtualbox, internal and external networks under Hyper-V.
However, this may differ for your usecase and can be configured by your IT department.
