Use outside of the DeltaV Control Network

The DeltaV Smart Switches is supported only as an unmanaged

switch if installed in networks outside of the DeltaV control

network, the DeltaV 2.5 network between the DeltaV

workstations and the perimeter firewall (such as the Emerson

Smart Firewall), or other DeltaV networks external to the DeltaV

control network. The switch will only accept a management

port network address from the DeltaV Network Device

Command Center and the switch can only be used where this

application is able to access the switch.

The DeltaV Smart Switches is not available for use as a managed

switch in the DeltaV InterZone network as the DeltaV Network

Device Command Center cannot access the switch if located on this network.

Compatible with previous versions of

DeltaV systems

Switches are compatible with existing systems that are

installed using only our supported Cisco or Hirschmann

switches. Fiber communications of the Smart Switch will

only communicate at 100/1000MB full duplex (not

configurable) and wired ports will only auto-negotiate

communications (setting is not user adjustable).

Existing switches must be configured to run either in auto

negotiate mode or 100/1000MB full duplex communications.

Existing 3COM switches and media converters may not be

compatible with the DeltaV Smart Switch as they may not

support the required communications. The Smart Switch

will not plug and play in some older networks unless the

existing devices are set to match the specifications above

during the installation.

The auto switch lockdown is compatible only with DeltaV v10.3

and later revisions.
