messages being pushed IEDs connected through all available D400's network
interfaces.

IEDs.
11. Select the applicable interface from the list of available interfaces in the D400.

options.
Adding a subnet configures the D400 Rsyslog to log messages only being sent from
the IED-IP addresses which are in range of the configured subnet.

Configure firewall settings
The D400 contains a firewall capable of stateful packet inspection to protect your device
from unauthorized access. By default, network interfaces on the D400 drop packets that
are determined to be invalidly routed or unsolicited.
SECURITY NOTICE
: The D400 firewall is intended only to protect itself and does not extend
protection to other devices on the network. As such, it does not replace the need for a
network firewall which offers deep packet inspection and detailed configuration
capabilities.
The D400 firewall is automatically configured by default to its most secure setting. The
user assumes all responsibility for associated security risks if the firewall configuration
is manually changed.
It is the user's responsibility to connect Internal zone interfaces to networks that are
protected from unauthorized use.
The D400 firewall is intended only to protect itself and does not extend protection to other
devices on the network. As such, it does not replace the need for a network firewall which
offers deep packet inspection and detailed configuration capabilities.
