From PLC NEXT we are trying to enable following functions - please guide

  1. We want to block a IP (192.168.1.91)  address, with these if it is possible to block/allow port number will be great option. ( Brief  - By using these functionality we want to block/denies  the specific IP with respective port number  for security reason) , By enabling these function the respective ip (i.e - 192.168.1.91) would not able to access PLC next controller with the respective port number. 
  2.  we want to allow only one IP address (which would be - 192.168.1.2) which will have all access to PLC next  controller  ,(If in case any other unauthorized  IP address try to connect PLC next controller then the communication should not be establish with that unknown IP with PLC next controller)

    Hello,

    You can achieve 1 and 2 using the "Firewall" section on the Web-Based Management site, or by providing your own custom nftables configuration, or by using an external security router like an mGuard.

    You can achieve 3 using either an external router like an mGuard, or by providing your own custom OpenVPN configuration.
