Mervis Proxy

The Proxy Server is the solution for communication from non-public or “hostile” network environments. It allows fully transparent communication over the Internet among controllers or communication with other clients, like supervision systems (e.g. Mervis SCADA).

There is no need to use port-forwarding, public IP addresses and similar “special” settings. There is no need to negotiate some special rules with local IT department. Controller using Proxy Server works as an ordinary web browsing computer and if the web access is allowed in the network then the Proxy Server can be used.

For maximum compatibility standard encrypted communication via HTTPS (or HTTP if required) is employed and therefore Proxy Server can be freely used in most network environments.

The Proxy Server supports standard data communication and also almost complete engineering capabilities needed during the installation of the control system and building commissioning. Greatly reduced cost and much smoother tuning of the control system are just few of the apparent benefits.
