FactoryTalk Remote Access

FactoryTalk Design Studio

integrates with

FactoryTalk Remote Access

to connect from the cloud to controllers.

FactoryTalk Remote Access

enables remote access and remote assistance to industrial equipment associated with Ethernet connections through the

Stratix®

4300 Remote Access

™

Router, the

FactoryTalk Remote Access

Runtime, or through industrial PCs and other products, such as

FactoryTalk Optix

panels with the

FactoryTalk Remote Access

Runtime license included.

FactoryTalk Design Studio

accesses

FactoryTalk Remote Access

endpoints with a custom

FTDS

user, which is automatically created as part of the

FactoryTalk Remote Access

configuration. In this way,

FactoryTalk Design Studio

endpoint access can be managed separately from other applications, enabling secure communications for all managed systems.

For more information on the network architecture and security design of

FactoryTalk Remote Access

and how it communicates using endpoints, see System Architecture in the

FactoryTalk Remote Access

Online Help.
