What's the mess? That the Intranet contains 192.168... addresses? Anyway, this is a big multinational corporation, and I can't have any situation where the Intranet "sees" my Modbus devices, and I can't make any assumptions about addresses being or not being in use in the Intranet. I understand that from the viewpoint of my control PC I can't have any duplicate addresses because that's how IP addresses work. That was my basic question, and it was answered. So as long as I put my modbus stuff into an IP address range that I don't need on the intranet, and I make that address space "invisible" on the intranet side using a netmask, I'm fine. > The devices on your modbus should be assign a unique IP address which > MUST NOT overlap with any other range already in use at your place.
