Embodiment Construction

[0101] Shown is a purely schematic illustration of an exemplary embodiment of the automation system 1 according to the invention of an industrial automation system which is not further shown in the drawing.

[0102] The automation system 1 can currently be a programmable logic controller (SPS). It should be pointed out that alternatives to this can also be other types of systems. The automatic configuration according to the invention can in principle be provided for every type of system from the industrial field, in particular industrial automation, which has one or more hardware network interfaces and / or (can) Add and / or remove one or more hardware network interfaces from it at runtime.

[0103] System 1 currently has four hardware network interfaces 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 . In the exemplary embodiment shown here, all four interfaces are physical hardware network interfaces 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 . In addition, several or all of these interfaces are virtual hardware network interfaces, for ...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for automatically configuring a system, a system, a computer program, and a computer-readable medium. The invention relates to a method for automatically configuring a system (1), in which method - when the system (1) is activated and / or during operation of the system (1), monitoring which physical and / or virtual hardware network interfaces (2, 3, 4, 5) the system (1) comprises, - if a hardware network interface (2, 3, 4, 5) is detected for the first time when the system (1) is activated, or a hardware network interface (2, 3, 4, 5) is newly added during operation of the system (1), this is communicated to an auto-configuration module (10) of the system (1), - the auto-configuration module (10) creates a configuration description (18) using a template file (12, 13, 14), and - the configuration description is implemented in order to configure the system (1) in accordance with said description. The invention also relates to a system (1), in particular an automation system, for carrying out such a method, to a computer programme, and to a computer-readable medium.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for automatically configuring a system, in particular an automation system. Furthermore, the invention relates to a system, in particular an automated system, a computer program and a computer readable medium for carrying out such a method. Background technique [0002] Automation systems, especially for industrial automation devices (such as programmable logic controllers, industrial personal computers or the like), usually have one or more network interfaces, which can be not only physical hardware network interfaces, but also virtual hardware network interfaces, For example virtual machines. Various systems from the field of automation technology can already be equipped with different such network interfaces from the factory, and the user can also change the modification on the physical and / or virtual hardware network interface afterwards, for example add or remove one or more such an interface. [0003] In opera...
