I need support planning and configuring a pair of Hirschmann EAGLE40 firewalls that will run in transport mode at the edge of our industrial backbone. The goal is to gain precise control over internal business traffic, with carefully structured firewall rules and tight network-access control that fit the topology of our production network. You will start by reviewing our existing Layer-3 design and proposing how the EAGLE40s should be positioned, including any VLAN or routing adjustments required for seamless transport-mode operation. From there, I expect a complete rule set that segments departments, limits east-west traffic, and blocks any unauthorized protocols while leaving room for future growth. Network Access Control must be enforced through the firewall’s native feature set, tying rules to MAC, IP or user groups where appropriate. Deliverables I need from you: • A brief design document outlining placement, interfaces and high-level traffic flow • The full Hirschmann CLI/HIView configuration ready for import, with comments • A step-by-step deployment guide I can follow on-site, including rollback steps • A short validation checklist demonstrating that critical services remain reachable and unauthorized traffic is dropped I will supply current diagrams, IP tables and maintenance windows once we start. No VPN or IPS features are in scope right now, but please keep the design flexible in case we add them later. Experience with Hirschmann Industrial HiVision or similar OT-focused tools is a plus.

Rough figures above, we'll nail down the real scope and price once we've had a look at your current diagrams and IP tables. This is an OT edge-security project: two EAGLE40s sitting in transport mode at the perimeter of your industrial backbone, with the job of giving you real visibility and control over internal business traffic. You want proper segmentation between departments, east-west traffic locked down, unauthorized protocols dropped, and NAC tied to MAC/IP or user groups. And you need it documented well enough that your on-site team can deploy it without us holding their hand the whole time. Here's how we'd approach this: - Layer-3 review and placement: We go through your existing topology, flag where the EAGLE40s slot in cleanly, and note any VLAN or routing changes needed for transport mode to work without disrupting production. - Rule design: Full rule set built around your department structure, explicit deny-by-default for east-west paths, and protocol whitelisting tuned to what your backbone actually needs to pass. - NAC config: Native EAGLE40 NAC feature set, binding rules to MAC addresses, IP ranges, or user groups as the topology allows, no third-party tooling required. - CLI/HIView export: Commented, import-ready config file for both units, with clear section headers so anyone familiar with HiVision can follow the logic. - Deployment and rollback docs: Step-by-step guide for the on-site cut-in, with rollback steps at each stage, plus a short validation checklist covering critical service reachability and blocked-traffic confirmation. We'll keep the design clean enough that adding VPN or IPS later doesn't mean a rebuild, just an extension of what's already there. After a short scope chat we'll put together a written proposal covering deliverables, timeline and a firm price. Want to jump on a quick call this week? Just want to walk through your current topology before we commit to anything on paper. Best, 96 Studio

Hi, this is Jorge from IT GLOBAL SOLUTION LLC, FL. I’ve worked on network security and firewall hardening for industrial edge devices and transport-mode deployments; your concept is clear and scalable. I’ll take a design-first approach with a modular EAGLE40 rule set, NIC/VLAN alignment, and a migration path from Layer-3 to edge transport topology that preserves service reachability while enabling strict access control. Practically, position the pair in an HA-like transport pair with a dedicated management interface and data plane, using VLANs mapped to production zones and a flexible routing table for seamless transport-mode operation. The design will outline interfaces, a minimal robust routing domain, and clear traffic flows between departments. The rule set will segment departments, restrict east-west traffic, and block unauthorized protocols, with future growth and a hook for optional VPN/IPS later. NAC will be enforced via the firewall’s native features, tying rules to MAC, IP, or user groups and integrating with existing directory or OT accounts where available. Deliverables include a concise design document, a commented CLI/HIView configuration ready for import, a concrete on-site deployment guide with rollback steps, and a validation checklist confirming critical services remain reachable while unauthorized traffic is dropped. I’m comfortable aligning with Hirschmann HiVision workflows if that helps OT visibility and change control.

Hello, I can support you in the design and configuration of your Hirschmann EAGLE40 firewalls in transport mode for your industrial backbone. My approach will start with a detailed review of your existing Layer-3 topology, VLAN structure, and routing paths to ensure the firewalls are placed in a way that maintains operational continuity while enforcing strict segmentation. I will then design the transport-mode architecture, including interface mapping, VLAN handling (if required), and high-level traffic flows between production, business, and support networks. Based on this, I will define a structured rule set that enforces department-level segmentation, restricts east–west traffic, and blocks non-essential or unauthorized protocols, while keeping the design scalable for future VPN/IPS integration. Deliverables will include a clear design document, a fully annotated Hirschmann CLI/HiView configuration, a step-by-step deployment and rollback procedure suitable for on-site execution, and a validation checklist to verify service availability and security enforcement after deployment. Once you share your current diagrams and IP plan, I will align the configuration precisely to your environment and ensure the design is both operationally safe and maintainable in an OT context.

I have experience designing and implementing enterprise and industrial network security solutions, including firewall deployments, traffic segmentation, Layer 3 routing, and access-control enforcement. For this project, I will review the existing network topology, IP addressing, and traffic flows to determine the optimal placement of the EAGLE40 firewalls in transport mode while minimizing operational impact. Based on the assessment, I will develop a structured security policy that segments departments, restricts unnecessary east-west traffic, and permits only authorized services between network zones. The configuration will be designed with future scalability in mind, allowing additional services such as VPN or IPS to be introduced without major redesign. Network Access Control policies will leverage the native capabilities of the EAGLE40 platform, including MAC, IP, and group-based controls where appropriate. Deliverables will include a design document covering firewall placement and traffic flow, deployment-ready firewall configuration, implementation and rollback procedures, and a validation checklist to confirm critical services remain operational while unauthorized traffic is blocked. I am comfortable working from network diagrams, IP tables, and maintenance windows and can provide practical recommendations before any production changes are made.
