FactoryTalk® Remote Access™
 Relay Servers are hosted in heterogeneous and geographically spread locations to be statistically nearer to either Frontend or Runtime in order to lower latency. However, Rockwell Automation 10 Security Architecture because of the special
FactoryTalk® Remote Access™
 network architecture explained earlier, they cannot cause any availability or security issues. Specifically:
  • Relay Servers are dynamically discovered. Even if a node is not available, clients will automatically switch to the others.
  • Relay Servers are an intermediate hop of an end-to-end encrypted channel, explained earlier. A man-in-the-middle attack scenario is not possible.
  • No data is stored on Relay Servers.
