Redundancy, a New Extraordinary Way to Link Nodes and Industrial Facilities
Introducing a whole new feature for use with your nodes and industrial devices. Redundancy brings advanced features, allowing you to secure and share critical data with your nodes and devices in order to provide fault tolerance and protection from downtime caused by network failure. It also comes with a Store&Forward mechanism, offering everyday reliability for your data flows.
Node Redundancy
Introducing Redundancy at the Node level
Node Redundancy allows you to link two N3uron Nodes together to provide reliable data within your facilities workflow. If one of the nodes fails, the other will automatically take over and continue executing.
Store&Forward Mechanism at Redundancy Node Level
Store & Forward mechanism is automatically set to your Redundancy node in order to prevent data loss, making your nodes more reliable than ever. By implementing a redundant architecture, if a node fails while experiencing outage communications on the network, Store&Forward will automatically transfer the data to the backup node, which will be responsible for forwarding all saved data once communications are restored. The magic of the Store&Forward mechanism at Redundancy Node level lies in this added efficiency.
Redundancy Agent
This new innovation lets N3uron connect to a pair of redundant devices or third-party applications, such as redundant PLCs, OPC UA servers, Databases, and even two remote N3uron nodes. The failover connection will be used if the primary one goes down.
Advanced Users, Roles, and Active Directory Features!
V.1.21, the most recent version of N3uron, is also the most secure version ever. It’s now possible to connect N3uron to any current Active Directory system and manage or restrict access to N3uron according to your company’s security policies. This will allow you to authenticate users in N3uron against your Company Active Directory System, making the user permissions management process effortless and more intuitive.
Web UI and Visualization!
Introducing the new and advanced User & Role management system for Web UI and Web Visualization. This new security system condenses User and Role Management for WebUI and Web Visualization applications into one location.
Active Directory
The Active Directory integration enables the N3uron security server to retrieve the list of all validated users from a specific domain. If a user account is removed from the Active Directory domain, the change will be automatically reflected in the N3uron Security Server, and thus preventing unauthorized access. This new component grants you extra control over your organization’s fleet of devices and installations, as well as configuration of N3uron nodes.
An Advanced Notifications System on N3uron
The latest N3uron release, V.1.21, brings with it a new advanced alarm notification system for the N3uron platform. You can now receive alarm notifications via email or text message using N3uron’s alarm notification system module. Start building an advanced alarming system on N3uron now!

Our development team has worked tenaciously to release a Universal Control tool that doesn’t require any changes to firewall settings, routing policies, open ports, and more. And, it also requires no IT action, as the node connections (which are always initiated by them) are outbound across the factory LAN.
Handle User & Role Permissions with Ease
Start creating new users and roles within the workspace in no time and with extreme ease.
Monitor Your Node’s Health and Performance
Fleet Manager provides health indicators for remote nodes, including connection status or memory & CPU usage, among many other things.
Tunnels: Secure Access to Devices and Third-party Applications in the Remote LAN
Fleet Manager allows you to configure HTTP, HTTPS, and TCP tunnels in order to provide remote access for monitoring and troubleshooting purposes.

New Core Redesign for Increased Performance
The redesigned core recently released by N3uron’s engineers transports V.1.21 performance to a whole new & exciting level! These new enhancements enable V.1.21 to significantly increase the efficiency of the entire system, representing a giant leap forward compared with previous N3uron versions.
Version V.1.21
Up to fifty per cent increased efficiency
Latest version performance vs. V.1.21
Up to 2x load tags
Redesign for Improved Security
At N3uron, we care deeply about security. This is why the new V.1.21 comes with TLS 1.3, making V.1.21 more secure than N3uron’s previous releases.
Assured Forward Secrecy
Thanks to the new update, in the event that an intruder is able to set up an earlier session, they will no longer be able to recover that session’s content. All cypher suites provide forward secrecy thanks to the use of ephemeral (EC) DH key agreements.
No RSA Key Agreement
With N3uron’s V.1.21, support for RSA has been removed from the key agreement step, which is now carried out using ECDH, thus simplifying the handshake, protocol and cypher suites.
Safer Cypher Options and Modes
Upgrading to TLS 1.3 allows N3uron to exclusively support AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Additional Data) and cypher modes.
Redundancy, a New Extraordinary Way to Link Nodes and Industrial Facilities
Introducing a whole new feature for use with your nodes and industrial devices. Redundancy brings advanced features, allowing you to secure and share critical data with your nodes and devices in order to provide fault tolerance and protection from downtime caused by network failure. It also comes with a Store&Forward mechanism, offering everyday reliability for your data flows.
Node Redundancy
Introducing Redundancy at the Node level
Node Redundancy allows you to link two N3uron Nodes together to provide reliable data within your facilities workflow. If one of the nodes fails, the other will automatically take over and continue executing.
Store&Forward Mechanism at Redundancy Node Level
Store & Forward mechanism is automatically set to your Redundancy node in order to prevent data loss, making your nodes more reliable than ever. By implementing a redundant architecture, if a node fails while experiencing outage communications on the network, Store&Forward will automatically transfer the data to the backup node, which will be responsible for forwarding all saved data once communications are restored. The magic of the Store&Forward mechanism at Redundancy Node level lies in this added efficiency.
Redundancy Agent
This new innovation lets N3uron connect to a pair of redundant devices or third-party applications, such as redundant PLCs, OPC UA servers, Databases, and even two remote N3uron nodes. The failover connection will be used if the primary one goes down.
Advanced Users, Roles, and Active Directory Features!
V.1.21, the most recent version of N3uron, is also the most secure version ever. It’s now possible to connect N3uron to any current Active Directory system and manage or restrict access to N3uron according to your company’s security policies. This will allow you to authenticate users in N3uron against your Company Active Directory System, making the user permissions management process effortless and more intuitive.
Web UI and Visualization!
Introducing the new and advanced User & Role management system for Web UI and Web Visualization. This new security system condenses User and Role Management for WebUI and Web Visualizationon applications into one location.
Active Directory
The Active Directory integration enables the N3uron security server to retrieve the list of all validated users from a specific domain. If a user account is removed from the Active Directory domain, the change will be automatically reflected in the N3uron Security Server, and thus preventing unauthorized access. This new component grants you extra control over your organization’s fleet of devices and installations, as well as configuration of N3uron nodes.
