From Plant Networks to Enterprise Networks
Moxa’s EDR series of secure routers provides Gigabit performance cyber security that integrates firewall, VPN, NAT, and L2 switching into one product, and is designed to secure remote access and also protect critical devices in the control networks. With comprehensive product offering, the EDR series is ideal for facilitating defense-in-depth network security from plant networks to enterprise networks.

Network traffic control for sewer system and wastewater treatment plant
The EDR-810 was used to deploy a smart automation system that blocks unwanted traffic, supports transparent firewall mode for easy integration into existing networks, performs deep inspection of Modbus TCP packets, and also supports VPN to secure remote monitoring of control systems.
EDR-810 Product Features
The EDR-810 is a highly integrated industrial multiport secure router with firewall/NAT/VPN and managed Layer 2 switch functions. It is designed for Ethernet-based security applications in sensitive remote control or monitoring networks, and it provides an electronic security perimeter for the protection of critical cyber assets such as pumping/ treatment systems in water stations, DCS systems in oil and gas applications, and PLC/SCADA systems in factory automation. The EDS-810 series includes the following cybersecurity features:
- Firewall/NAT: Firewall policies control network traffic between different trust zones, and Network Address Translation (NAT) shields the internal LAN from unauthorized activity by outside hosts.
- VPN: Virtual Private Networking (VPN) is designed to provide users with secure communication tunnels when accessing a private network from the public Internet. VPNs use IPSec (IP Security) server or client mode for encryption and authentication of all IP packets at the network layer to ensure confidentiality and sender authentication.
The EDR-810’s “WAN Routing Quick Setting” provides an easy way for users to set up WAN and LAN ports to create a routing function in four steps. In addition, the EDR-810’s “Quick Automation Profile” gives engineers a simple way to configure the firewall filtering function with general automation protocols, including EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, EtherCAT, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and PROFINET. Users can easily create a secure Ethernet network from a user-friendly web UI with a single click, and the EDR-810 is capable of performing deep Modbus TCP packet inspection. Wide temperature range models that operate reliably in hazardous, -40 to 75°C environments are also available.
