GSD Signierung

Signing GSD files for PROFINET

The PNO has established a certification authority that enables all device manufacturers to sign the GSD file belonging to a PROFINET and to deliver it as a GSDX file in signed form. A signed GSD file ensures both its authenticity and integrity. The signing service is available in two folowing variants:

Smart Card

Signing of GSDs by the device manufacturer:

The prerequisite is a manufacturer-specific certificate, which is created by the PNO. The PI certification body of the PNO creates a manufacturer-specific certificate with a validity of three years, which is delivered to the manufacturer. On this basis the manufacturer can sign the GSD files himself using the tooling provided. The license for the use of the PNO-GSD-Tooling (user-related license for the use of the on-premise software) is purchased from the PNO, with a smart card per user.

Certification Service

GSD signing service of the PNO: Creation of manufacturer-specific certificates as a service:

The PI certification body of the PNO creates a manufacturer-specific certificate with a validity of three years. This certificate is the prerequisite for the PNO's signing service and remains at the PI Certification Authority, where it is stored securely. During the term of the certificate, the PNO signs the manufacturer's GSD file upon request via the portal. For this purpose, the manufacturer uploads the GSD files via the GSD Signing Portal and the PNO makes the GSDX file available in the portal after signing with automatic notification by e-mail.
