18DCOM Settings with the dcomcnfg System Program

18.5“Default Protocols” Tab

Description of the Settings

In the “Default Protocols” tab, you specify the network protocols that are available for DCOM.

Note

The OPC server of SIMATIC NET was tested with the “Connection-oriented TCP/IP” protocol.

Since the order of the protocols in the dialog decides the priority, DCOM uses the protocol at the top of the list if it is available.

Notice

To operate the PROFInet OPC server, the “Connection-oriented TCP/IP” protocol must be at the top of the list. This setting is also necessary when the OPC Server runs on the same computer as the OPC client.

When communicating with a PROFInet partner (that is not normally a member of the domain), remember to use the workgroup settings!
