With KNX Data-Secure, communication on the KNX bus and in the IP network is "encrypted".
In order to be able to connect the EisBaer to the data secure bus, all the group addresses used must be stored in the ETS6 project for the selected connection. This is implemented directly in the tunnelling channels above when routing with a dummy. The dummy device itself must be secure and be located topologically above the KNX/IP router.
Example:
The project password is required to export the data points and is started from the overview. The export of the key is also required. Select "Details" on the overview page --> Enter password --> Click on "Security". A list of all registered devices is displayed. The "Backup keychain" button is located at the top right. A password must be assigned for the export. The device certificates are not required.
In the EisBaer KNX driver
The .knxproj file is imported via the ETS6 import (see Setting up the KNX driver). The .knxkeys file is imported in the driver settings in the connection settings for the interface.
Important: The address of the dummy must be entered as the physical address.
Tunnelling
For the tunnelling connection, the IP address and correct KNX address of the selected tunnelling interface must be set.
The keyring must be imported. To do this, the export password of the ETS6 keyring export must be entered.
The connection can be checked with "Check connection".
Routing
The correct multicast IP address must be entered and the keyring (*.knxkeys) must be imported. To do this, the export password from the ETS6 keyring export must be entered.
The connection can be checked with "Check connection".
It is not possible to use the backbone key with Data Secure. This only works with IP Secure.
The keyring file (keyring) is automatically savedin the project under \PRJ0001\DBs\Importduring import and transferred during uploads and downloads.
