Reading time 14 minutesThe recent Royal Bank of Canada RBC overview of global supply chains explicitly displays how bad port congestion currently is – and how it keeps getting worse. The study states that one-fifth of the global container ship fleet is stuck at various major ports. The turnaround time keeps increasing in all the biggest terminals of China, the US, and Europe. Global business news channel CNBC created Supply Chain Heat Maps to track the levels of container terminal performance. For example, in the US, the situation in the Port of Oakland is the worst with vessels taking an average of six days to unload and load import containers are waiting eleven days to get transported. The ports of Los Angeles and New York are not far behind. In the first half of 2022, the main reasons for supply chain slowdown and port bottlenecks are China’s battle with COVID that results in lockdowns, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, increased fuel prices, deficient terminal infrastructure, and inefficient terminal operations. And while you as a terminal manager might not have power over global problems, what you can do is optimize your operations and implement technology to streamline workflows and decrease processing time. In this article, we describe the terminal operating software, its main features, possible integrations, and ways it can benefit port productivity. Note, that we’ll only talk about cargo terminals and won’t cover other port activities such as fishing, ferries, cruises, etc. What are the main terminal operating problems? All the cargo ports and terminals are different. They vary in size, freight types bulk or container terminals, and location sea or inland ports. However, we can roughly generalize that the main functions of most cargo terminals revolve around catering to vessels discharge, repairs, refueling, etc., freight loading/unloading, storage, stuffing/stripping, etc., and connected inland transportation arrangement of cargo movement. Understanding these key objectives allows us to highlight the common pain points of operating a cargo terminal throughout its key areas – the berth, the yard, and the gate. Main terminal challenges Disruptive vessel calls planning On the vessel side, the challenge lies in scheduling berth windows, arranging loading/unloading equipment according to vessel ETAs, and communicating with the shipping line to synchronize operations. It’s important to carefully arrange all the pieces of this puzzle, set up the optimal loading/unloading sequence, and exchange messages with the carrier’s system to maximize the operational efficiency. This process becomes even more complicated due to frequent vessel delays and other disruptions that lead to waste of time, fuel, and port resources, so operators have to timely react and reschedule berth and resource allocation. All of that becomes a herculean task without specialized software. Inefficient yard space configuring The yard is basically a large storage area in the terminal that has to be efficiently managed. The main complexities here include optimal cargo allocation, handling equipment and staff coordination, and truck movement organizing. Different storage areas have to be created and freight has to be allocated according to further operations. Since most terminals process thousands of containers not to mention other cargo types daily, orchestrating all these processes manually is barely possible. Lengthy truck visits arrangement appointment booking, permission granting, verification, etc. Another important terminal workflow is gate management. Incoming and outgoing vehicles have to be carefully monitored. Access permission can only be granted to authorized vehicles and according to the associated cargo details, which then has to be verified at the gate. But performing all the checks manually is too lengthy and error-prone. And when hundreds of trucks come in and out to deliver or pick up freight, it can easily cause bottlenecks, so this flow has to be properly arranged. Complicated staff and equipment scheduling Scheduling is always a problem, especially in large businesses with multiple operational units. In the terminal, staff and equipment schedules mainly depend on the vessel calls and truck visits. Connecting all of them together is hard in itself, and when inevitable disruptions like equipment failures or vessel/truck delays happen, everything becomes a hot mess. Inefficient cargo tracking resulting in lost freight Another problem is monitoring cargo flow within the terminal. Goods have to be tracked when they arrive, unloaded/loaded, transshipped, and stored, so that nothing gets lost in the terminal chaos – which unfortunately is not an uncommon situation. Inaccurate billing that leads to lost revenue Terminals perform thousands of billable operations daily for numerous customers. All the charges have to be accurately captured and added to corresponding invoices. If done manually, operators get buried under tons of paperwork – and still can’t avoid putting a foot wrong. Data leakages in reporting and analytics activities Terminal operators need to have full visibility into all facility activities. Some of the important KPI categories that have to be monitored are gate events and truck movements, terminal inventory, vessel movements, crane and other equipment productivity, yard utilization, demurrage and detention, and many more. To create all these valuable reports, data has to be collected across all terminal departments. However, traditional organizations with siloed structures make data sharing very complicated, leading to information leakages and communication delays which cause disruptions too. So, no reporting and holistic data analysis is possible without having all the data in one integrated system. In today’s digital world ruled by data, your performance and competitiveness often depend on your technological level. So, let’s see how modern software can optimize your terminal operations. The terminal operating system and its key modules In a nutshell, the terminal operating system TOS is a digital platform that helps track and manage all the supply chain operations at the cargo ports and terminals. TOSs help coordinate all the terminal logistics elements including vessels, trucks, cranes, trains, and port staff, track cargo movement, optimize asset usage, and analyze data to support decision-making. Now, let’s take a deeper look into TOS functionality and its core modules intertwining. TOS main modules Berth management planning vessel visits and predicting ETA The maritime industry historically relies on the Electronic Data Interchange or EDI technology for information exchange we’ll describe it in more detail further on. It’s required for effective berth management as well. Carriers or agents send the BERMAN or berth management message to the port that contains a request to moor, details of the call and vessel, berth requirements, and expected operations. Obviously, all this information can’t be received and processed without the integrated TOS. That helps terminal operators to synchronize all the ship-related activities. A TOS helps schedule vessel visits, their moves between terminals if necessary, and associated services, as well as coordinate tugboats and staff. If your terminal experiences significant tidal events, make sure your TOS offers dynamic tidal modeling to safely manage vessel movements. Sometimes the ETA received from the shipping line isn’t exact, so terminals often make their own predictions regarding port calls timing. A common way to do it is by connecting to the automatic identification system AIS data source which allows users to track vessels in real time. Yard management arranging cargo movement and allocating terminal resources Yard management generally refers to organizing the movement of cargo, handling equipment, vehicles, and staff in the yard of the warehouse, terminal, distribution center, or another facility. The TOS helps automate and streamline the yard operations we talked about earlier defining areas for all types of cargo and operations loading/unloading, transshipment, storage, etc.; allocating and scheduling staff by creating convenient to-do lists and equipment including ARMG, ASC, forklifts, etc. for all types of operations; monitoring equipment location due to a so-called real-time locating system or RTLS, which we’ll talk about later, etc. The TOS contains all the information on the incoming and outgoing freight and can automatically coordinate available equipment, staff, and space according to the cargo requirements and type of operation. And the load planning functionality helps configure your yard areas and arrange cargo in the most efficient way with optimal space usage, considering load constraints and further operations. In addition, having a real-time view of all yard processes allows terminal operators to immediately react to any disruptions. Freight management cargo tracking, storage, and other services A TOS serves as a database for all freight that passes through or is stored in the terminal. Depending on your type of terminal, your TOS must handle all the cargo types you deal with, be they containers of any size, RORO Roll-On/Roll-Off, or general cargo dry/liquid bulk, break bulk with different packaging, logs, etc.. Plus, there should be support for IMDG hazardous cargo, temperature-sensitive products, and over dimensional freight. Many terminals include storage facilities and offer warehousing and/or container freight station services. A TOS allocates storage space and tracks cargo movement within the terminal. A common way to monitor freight is implementing RFID technology that automatically identifies and tracks tags attached to cargo items and then sends information to the TOS database you can read more about tracking technologies in a dedicated post. Some ports also provide additional cargo-related services such as stuffing and unstuffing, freight consolidation or breaking down, renting out containers, and so on. A TOS helps efficiently manage all these varied operations, from receiving orders to execution to billing. Gate management controlling access to terminal facility A gate management module helps terminal operators coordinate and monitor all the incoming and outgoing vehicles. The vehicle booking feature allows carriers to choose a convenient appointment slot as well as register vehicle, driver, and freight details. So, upon arrival, all the required information is already in the system and the verification process is as fast and easy as can be. Besides, a well-built, automated gate management system ensures ISPS International Ship and Port Facility Security Code compliance mandatory for ports. Automating gate operations typically involves creating an infrastructure of interconnected elements though they can also come as separate solutions that include self-service driver kiosks – to go through a paperless self-verification process and access code entry; OCR cameras – to identify and register vehicles, license/number plates, containers, and seals; RFID scanners – to identify the passing cargo and assist with inventory management; automated security barriers – to control vehicle access; intercom devices – to enable communication with terminal staff; information displays – to receive instructions and other important information; and so on. All these recognition technologies and management tools work most efficiently when seamless data exchange is established so that the vessel, container, vehicle, and traffic data are easily shared between modules and collected for further use reviewing traffic events, analytics, etc.. Financial and reporting modules supporting billing and analytics Managerial activities take place behind the scenes, but are of the same importance as others. A multi-currency billing module allows terminal managers to capture all the billable terminal operations, create accurate invoices, control revenue streams, and efficiently handle flexible tariffs and rates. Meanwhile, customizable reports and access to robust, data-based analytics give a full picture of facility performance and help make efficient strategic decisions. TOS allows users to export and share reports in a number of standards XML, CSV, PDF, etc.. Also, TOSs offer a range of access levels to support security. Additional feature rail management If your terminal has an adjacent rail facility as a component of an intermodal supply chain, you need rail management functionality to plan train loading/discharge sequence, schedule resources, and handle other rail-related operations. TOS integrations We mentioned earlier how important data sharing is for such a complex system. Now, let’s look a bit deeper into the key TOS integrations that have to be established for efficient terminal performance. But first, let’s talk about how these integrations can be built. EDI vs API As we mentioned above, Electronic Data Interchange or EDI technology is traditionally used in the maritime industry to exchange information on cargo movement between ports, shipping lines, and other parties. EDI enables data transfer directly between systems; otherwise, it would’ve been done in paper form, through phone calls, or via emails – and take forever. The two main EDI standards are UN EDIFACT common outside the US and ANSI common in the US. EDI helps exchange such crucial documents as bills of lading, customs manifests, loading/discharge orders/confirmations, stowage instructions, vessel plans, and much more. Such automatic document sharing is convenient and has become an industry standard, so all modern TOSs have EDI message processing functionality. However, this format has been there for decades, so now some of the major carriers including Maersk, CMA CGM, and MSC are moving toward newer integration methods – via APIs and using JSON messaging format. One of the modern data sharing platforms gaining popularity in the maritime industry is TradeLens accessible via a set of REST APIs. It’s underpinned by blockchain technology that ensures data security and is designed to enhance collaboration across global supply chains. For example, carriers can share their position, ETA, electronic bills of lading, and detailed cargo data so that terminals can plan their operations, while shippers, brokers, and consignees can easily track their shipments. Besides external integrations, APIs are catching on for connecting internal systems that we’ll talk about right now. Internal integrations GOS, RTLS, reefer monitoring, and others Again, there’s no universal rule for all terminals since all of them are different and have distinct operational models and tech ecosystems. Here are just some of the opportunities to connect internal software systems. Note that many of them involve creating a complex Internet of Things IoT infrastructure with multiple sensors, smart devices, and connected software to process data. Gate operating system GOS. If you have a standalone GOS, connecting it and all of its sensors and modules such as cameras and RFID scanners to your TOS will let land carriers receive information about incoming vessels and register their vehicles and loads, while you’ll obtain complete data about the vehicle flow. Real-time locating system RTLS. Terminal handling equipment has to be tracked, which is performed with such technologies as GPS, DGPS, RFID, Bluetooth, and so on. The RTLS is a network of tags or wireless transponders attached to equipment units, plus readers installed in different terminal areas to receive tag signals and detect their location. Reefer monitoring system. If you operate a container terminal, you probably deal with refrigerated/frozen cargo, which requires constant monitoring. Integrating reefer monitoring to have all the information about such temperature-sensitive freight in your TOS is nothing but convenient. Read more about cold chain logistics and how to manage it in our dedicated post. Radio/mobile data terminals RDT/MDT. Various technologies are used to create wireless networks in terminals that basically connect workers in the field with a control operator. Handheld, static, or vehicle-mounted devices allow terminal personnel to receive instructions from a TOS and enable communication. Financial, business intelligence, and general ledger systems. You might use a separate business management solution say, an ERP such as SAP, Microsoft Business Central, or Oracle to manage your back-office operations including accounting, analytics, reporting, sales, marketing, and so on. Connecting it to your TOS is crucial for seamless information exchange. External integrations shipping lines, freight brokers, tracking data providers As we said, to synchronize operations and exchange information, terminals connect to shipping lines and freight brokers, usually via EDI – or TradeLens for the most advanced companies. This way, maritime carriers inform ports of their visits and freight, shippers/brokers book empty containers, and terminals confirm booking, loading/unloading operations, and much more. Another common external connection that terminals take advantage of is the AIS data feed we mentioned above. Real-time ship positions and other marine information is vital for vessel and freight tracking, accurate ETA forecasting, and enhanced berth management. Some of the popular providers with well-developed APIs are MarineTraffic, Vessel Finder, or AISHub. Popular TOS providers We don’t promote any of the TOS providers but want to give a brief overview of the most popular products on the market to give you an idea of existing options.

What to consider beyond core functionality Whatever way you choose, you always have to balance the price with the end result, the functionality scope that you get. In addition, we have several important considerations on what a great TOS should have. Mobile-friendliness. It’s crucial to have access to your software from any device, especially for field staff. Range of freight types. If you operate a mixed cargo terminal, make sure the TOS supports all the freight types you deal with. Multi-terminal support. This feature is needed for operators that manage several terminals and want to have all their activities in a single system. Scalability and customization opportunities. You’ll have to customize your TOS anyway because even if you decide to build your own product, your operations might change as you grow and develop. So make sure your system is flexible and allows for adjustments within an acceptable budget and time frame. Data security, safe storage, and replication technologies. You deal with massive amounts of supply chain data every day, so it’s important that no leakages happen. Information has to be stored safely and backed up with auto-replication technologies – just in case. Customer support, implementation, and training. If you choose to partner with a TOS provider, make sure you have deep cooperation. They have to fully understand your objectives, challenges, and requirements, work on customization, and guide the entire hardware/software implementation and integration processes. After that, complete training has to be conducted for all the terminal staff extra tip Look for user-friendly software with an intuitive interface for a shorter and easier training process. And last but not least, make sure their customer support is always available and responsive to your requests and queries. Buy, build, or modernize? There’s a variety of ready-made solutions on the market but there are two other options of getting a TOS. To build a customized platform from scratch, buy an off-the-shelf solution, or modernize legacy software – the choice depends on your needs and resources. When to build? If you want a fully tailored product to seamlessly fit into your workflow, develop your own proprietary system, but remember that such a massive project might take years and require significant investment. When to buy? If, after exploring the market, you understand that existing products can cover your needs with minimal customization required, go with it. Note though, that you’ll still have to fine-tune the system and integrate it into your existing tech ecosystem. When to modernize? If you have legacy software that works but uses outdated technologies or lacks the functionality you need, you might want to launch a gradual modernization project. In this case, you don’t have to stop your operations but will be able to improve your system one step at a time. Read more about legacy technologies modernization approaches and techniques in our post. As a final piece of advice, we recommend you make the most of modern technologies like machine learning that will enhance your planning, analytics, and decision-making process. Yes, it comes at a price, but the world today operates on data, so whoever harnesses its power – will gain an unbeatable competitive advantage.

RecommendedProjects. .NET Telnet is a telnet library written for the MS .NET Framework. It is inspired by the Java Telnet Application. A C# .net VT/Telnet terminal emulator. The project is still very much in development but the Terminal is quite useable and fairly tolerent. It requires a c# 2 compiler.

New operational efficiencies in container handling and terminal yards Terminal and port operators are constantly looking for the best solutions to improve productivity and increase throughput, while at the same time reducing costs and enhancing safety and security. To achieve the business objectives presented in Figure 1, terminal operators and machine builders take advantage of increasingly advanced technology to automate their terminal operations; remotely control machines such as quay cranes/Ship-to-Shore STS cranes, Rubber-Tired Gantry RTG cranes, and/or automated straddle carriers AutoSC in real time; gain visibility into high-value assets; increase asset utilization, berth availability, and occupancy patterns; reduce network and application downtime; optimize maintenance; and reduce operational costs. Port operators can leverage new Internet of Things IoT technology to provide better environmental monitoring such as tidal and weather conditions, salinity, and water levels so that ships’ arrival times can be better planned with real-time information on berth availability. In addition, truck and rail turn time can be improved through real-time traffic monitoring and integration with Terminal Operating Systems TOS. The workforce productivity at both ports and terminals can be improved with extended Wi-Fi access and more effective collaboration tools. Industrial networks at ports and terminals require better-integrated Operational Technology OT and Information Technology IT security and safety to enable greater visibility into the system and assets, protect the network from cyberattacks, and provide a faster response when incidents and issues happen. All of these capabilities are key to the success of the port and terminal digitization process, which is dependent on a network infrastructure that is secure, scalable, reliable, and resilient. Cisco’s networking products and solutions provide the necessary foundation for such infrastructure. Cisco’s industrial IoT products are proven to meet the unique requirements of operating a port and/or terminal. Figure 1. Business objectives in port and terminal operations Benefits A network foundation for improving the safety, efficiency, and service levels of your terminal and port operations ● Secured, scalable, and reliable critical infrastructure ● High bandwidth, low latency, and seamless handoff ● Enhanced asset visibility ● Support for edge intelligence to act on data faster and closer to its source ● Simplified device onboarding and centralized policy control Network challenges When port and terminal operators deploy a network foundation for their operations, they typically have to address a range of challenges. These include a network infrastructure that needs to adapt to challenging environments, a complex infrastructure that needs to support both legacy and state-of-the-art systems, a solution that must provide network and data security and improve worker safety and physical security, and a resilient and reliable network infrastructure that can support growing digitization. Challenging environment Ports and terminals operate under harsh coastal weather with extreme conditions. This requires the networking equipment deployed to sustain wide temperature ranges, shock and vibration caused by the operation of big machines and the transport of heavy containers, and the presence of water and dust. The physical environment of a port and terminal is dynamic and unpredictable, due to the enormous volume of constantly moving containers, cranes, land vehicles, trains, and giant marine ships such as cargo vessels that hold 10,000 to 20,000 Twenty-foot-Equivalent Unit TEU containers. Such challenging environments can introduce a great amount of interference and pose restrictions on the range of the wireless communication required to support the port’s and terminal’s operations. Growing digitization Through digitization and automation, port and terminal operators increase their competitiveness and enhance operational efficiency. Digitization helps operators streamline the business process, create new business opportunities, and make the right business decisions, and it is achieved through access to relevant and reliable data. Digitization of smart ports drives significant increases in data traffic volume. According to a recent presentation by IDC on the “Digitisation of the Maritime Supply Chain”, IDC expects that smart port operations will drive data traffic volume growth from petabytes per month in 2021 to petabytes per month in 2025, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate CAGR of 26%. These data points are collected from sources such as sensors, video cameras, control systems, and voice and data applications that support use cases such as terminal operating systems, remote operations, autonomous vehicles, and remote asset monitoring. Figure 2. Smart port operations drive data traffic volumes Complex infrastructure Port and terminal operations deal with massive machines such as quay cranes/STS cranes, RTG cranes, rail-mounted gantry cranes, reach stackers, and AutoSCs. These are complex and have a much longer life span than other types of equipment. This can mean that there is an aging infrastructure that needs support and maintenance. Different security and operational needs lead to multiple segregated networks, adding complexity and incurring high maintenance costs. Digitization demands a next-generation architecture that is highly resilient and scalable. This architecture needs to support different applications with diverse communication requirements. Terminal operations and automation require multiple access technologies for success. The choice of technologies is largely dependent on the types of devices to be connected, the application requirements in terms of latency, roaming, and throughput, the deployment scenario, and the implication of CapEx and OpEx. Cybersecurity As port and terminal operations move toward greater digitization, more machines, people, and applications are networked together, more equipment and applications are brought online to enable the automation, and more attack surfaces and vulnerabilities are created. According to a study in 2020 cyberattacks on the maritime industry’s OT systems have increased by 900% over the last three years. A simple malicious attack can bring down the entire network, create an unprecedented backlog for the supply chain, disrupt the network infrastructure and terminal operations for weeks, and cause great financial loss to the port and terminal operators. For example, in June 2017, ransomware called NotPetya hit the Maersk shipping company, locking down access to the system that it uses to operate its shipping terminals worldwide. The attack cost the company nearly $300 million and took two weeks to fix. Why Cisco? Cisco provides a comprehensive portfolio including routing, switching, wireless, collaboration, data center, IoT, and security. Whatever a customer’s goals might be, Cisco is able to offer a trusted end-to-end solution that combines our portfolio with technologies from a robust ecosystem of partners. Cisco’s Intent-Based Networking IBN technology transforms hardware-centric, manually configured networks into controller-led networks that capture network managers’ business intent and use automation to translate intent into policies that are applied consistently across the network and monitored comprehensively to help ensure proper ongoing operation at scale. Some of the world’s largest and most vital networks have embraced Cisco IBN because it brings new levels of network performance, security, and reliability to the network at larger scale, and with less effort. Cisco’s Connected Ports and Terminals solution combines those industry-leading IBN capabilities with the specific and distinct needs of the IoT networks used for port and terminal operations. The Cisco IoT networking and security portfolio addresses the unique requirements that are needed in an industrial outdoor environment. In addition, the Industrial Automation Cisco Validated Design CVD is the blueprint to implement a resilient and secure network infrastructure that supports Industrial Automation and Control Systems IACS. Cisco’s Connected Ports and Terminals solution leverages this well-designed and tested solution to enable digitization and automation, improving business operation outcomes. More detailed information about the Industrial Automation CVD can be found in Networking and Security in Industrial Automation Environments Design and Implementation Guide. Network security should be included from day one and not as an afterthought. An effective cybersecurity strategy requires a comprehensive, systematic, coordinated approach to protect against a broad and continuously evolving set of threats. Cisco offers an ever-expanding, industry-leading portfolio of cybersecurity products to provide comprehensive protection for IT and operations networks. Cisco’s portfolio includes Cisco Cyber Vision, provides visibility into industrial devices and data traffic flows; Secure Network Analytics formerly Stealthwatch, which can monitor data flows and detect traffic anomalies that can be used to enhance network segmentation policies; a policy platform called Cisco Identity Services Engine ISE, which helps define and manage user profiles and access policies at scale; Cisco Malware Defense formerly Advanced Malware Protection to provide up-to-date monitoring and detection of malware threats; Cisco Umbrella to prevent passengers or workers from accessing malicious network domains; and Cisco DNA Center and SD-Access to automate and simplify security policy implementation and assurance across all network devices. Additionally, Cisco SecureX™ provides a consolidated view for simplified management of the overall security approach. Cisco has an established and growing ecosystem of technology and solution partners who can help design, implement, and operate end-to-end solutions that build on Cisco’s Connected Ports and Terminals architecture and fulfill the business needs of port and terminal operators. Building port and terminal solutions on a Cisco Validated Design helps ensure that Cisco has tested and validated the architecture, which greatly reduces implementation risk and provides extra peace of mind for customers and solution delivery partners alike. Cisco partners include machine and software manufacturers, software solution providers, channel partners, and consultants. Ecosystem partners are vital in the successful deployment and operation of the Connected Ports and Terminals solution. Connected Ports and Terminals reference architecture The Cisco Connected Ports and Terminals reference architecture, shown in Figure 3, follows the blueprint of ISA-95 and is based on the Cisco reference architecture for IACS. This reference architecture is composed of four major functional modules that include cell/area zone, industrial zone, Industrial Demilitarized Zone IDMZ, and enterprise. The following sections explain the functions and capabilities of each module in detail. Figure 3. Connected Ports and Terminals reference architecture Cell/area zone The cell/area zone is the access layer located at the edge of the industrial network that provides either wired or wireless connectivity to industrial devices. These devices include not only industrial devices at Levels 0 through 2 in the ISA-95 model, such as actuators, controllers, and sensors that communicates via traditional control protocols such as PROFINET, but also devices such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth-enabled handheld devices, voice communication radios, access points, cameras, vehicle telemetry sensors, and weather sensors that leverage traditional network protocols such as IP or serial links for communications. The cell/area zone module delivers the following very important characteristics ● Industrial characteristics The platform choices are heavily influenced by the environmental conditions at the port and terminal. The Cisco IoT product portfolio delivers hardware that is hardened with a small form factor, can sustain an extended temperature range and shock and vibration, and provides protection against water and dust. Industrial control protocols such as PROFINET and EtherNet/IP are supported natively on the Cisco Catalyst Industrial Ethernet IE switches, presented in Figure 4. Figure 4. Cisco Catalyst Rugged Series Industrial Ethernet switches ● Multiple access technologies Depending on the application requirements, deployment scenario, and existing network infrastructure, multiple access technologies, including both wired and wireless, are required for the success of the operation. The Cisco IoT wireless portfolio includes LTE and 5G, suitable for wide mobility and high throughput; Wi-Fi 6 and Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul formerly Fluidmesh, depicted in Figure 5, for mobility and fixed infrastructure with high throughput, low latency, and ultra-reliable, resilient mesh; and LoRaWAN for massive scale and broad coverage. The Cisco IoT wired product line offers Ethernet connections over copper or fiber, as well as serial and DSL connections from internet service providers. Figure 5. Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul ● Highly resilient network An IACS network must be highly resilient, with latency, reliability, scalability, and performance taken into consideration in the network design. For industrial control traffic, packet latency and jitter have a huge impact on the underlying industrial process. Network availability and convergence time are also key metrics for critical IACS communication. The Cisco Resilient Ethernet Protocol REP available on IE switches is typically suitable for IACS applications that can tolerate up to a 100-ms network convergence recovery time. When zero-second convergence time is required, the Parallel Redundancy Protocol PRP can be also leveraged and is supported on the Cisco Catalyst IE3400, IE4000, and IE5000 Series. ● Security Security in the cell/area zone needs to be viewed as a component of an overall end-to-end security architecture within the port and terminal. It is critical that security capabilities span the breadth of the port and terminal in order to be effective, yet this may pose a challenge when the IT and OT are not well integrated and are managed by different groups. The fundamental requirements are visibility into current network devices and industrial assets, grouping and separation of network assets and applications through segmentation, anomaly detection and mitigation, and network hardening on the management plane, control plane, and data plane. All these can be achieved through Cisco Cyber Vision, Cisco TrustSec, and Cisco Secure Network Analytics, and its integration with Cisco ISE. Industrial zone The industrial zone in this architecture refers to a zone that all industrial and mission-critical port and terminal applications are confined to. It is composed of Cisco industrial data center and third-party port and terminal application services. Due to the sensitive nature of the assets and data flow in the industrial zone, a pair of redundant firewalls located in the industrial DMZ blocks all the traffic in and out of the industrial zone and allows only traffic that is explicitly defined. This may cause a challenge when communication patterns are not well understood, particularly in cases where communication between the industrial zone and the upper levels is required. That is why application visibility is so important and why technologies such as Cyber Vision and Secure Network Analytics can be very beneficial. The Cisco industrial data center follows the best practices from Cisco data center design. The platform choice of the Cisco Catalyst 9000 family for the industrial zone core switch and the Cisco Nexus 9300 for the data center switch enables Cisco intent-based networking with Cisco DNA Center management and data center solutions such as Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure Cisco ACI. To minimize the need for communication between Level 3 the industrial zone in the Industrial Automation reference architecture and upper levels, key infrastructure services should be located within the industrial data center. These include dedicated identity services such as Active Directory AD and ISE, dedicated wireless controllers to manage wireless connections within the industrial zone, and Cyber Vision and Secure Network Analytics to gain visibility into the asset and application flows. Third-party applications that are responsible for port and terminal operations are located in the server farms at the industrial data center. These applications include equipment control systems, crane interface systems, Optical Character Recognition OCR servers, container terminal automation systems, and gate operating systems. By having these essential services and applications located in the industrial zone, the operation is less likely to be disrupted in the event that external connectivity via the IDMZ is lost or the upper-level network is brought down by a cyberattack. This does not mean the air-gapped industrial zone will be immune from cyberattack, and the Cisco Secure Firewall ISA3000, illustrated in Figure 6, located in this zone is designed to segment the traffic for different OT assets and protect them from potential threats. Figure 6. Cisco Secure Firewall ISA3000 IDMZ The IDMZ resides in a level between the industrial and enterprise zones, commonly referred as Level in the ISA-95 reference architecture. An IDMZ environment consists of numerous infrastructure devices, including firewalls, VPN servers, IACS application mirrors, remote gateway services and reverse proxy servers, in addition to network infrastructure devices such as routers, switches, and virtualized services. IDMZ firewalls apply defense-in-depth principles at the industrial perimeter by blocking all traffic into and out of the industrial zone and allowing only traffic that is explicitly defined. Accordingly, communication patterns must be well understood, since some use cases require communication between Level 3 and upper levels, with Terminal Operating Systems TOS being a prime example of this scenario, as the application server is normally located in the enterprise zone. The traffic between the devices in the industrial zone and TOS needs to be explicitly permitted in the IDMZ. It is also recommended that IDMZ systems be granularly isolated in individual VLANs as much as practically possible. This increases the firewall’s visibility into individual server data streams to identify potentially compromised hosts. Redundant IDMZ firewalls and distribution/aggregation switches are required so that specific systems, such as remote desktop gateways and OS patch servers, can be securely hosted in the IDMZ. The IDMZ is designed in such way that all IACS traffic from either side of the IDMZ should be terminated in the IDMZ. No IACS traffic should directly traverse the IDMZ. If traversal is required, it should go through gateway or proxy functions in the IDMZ. Non-IACS traffic can implement IDMZ traversal through whitelisting. Enterprise The enterprise zone is isolated from the industrial zone via the IDMZ. This zone is usually a traditional enterprise data center where server-based enterprise systems are deployed safely and efficiently in a physically secure and air-conditioned environment and where data center best practices are strictly enforced. Corporate remote access solutions should be implemented so that employees can access the enterprise zone in a secure and controlled fashion. Depending on the nature of the customer’s applications, they can be hosted either in the enterprise data center, private cloud, or public cloud. The enterprise data center is also shielded from the internet by a pair of redundant firewalls. Cisco Connected Ports and Terminals use case themes The Cisco Connected Ports and Terminals reference architecture is designed to support various use cases in port and terminal operations. As listed in Table 1, those use cases are categorized into three major themes terminal automation, cyber and physical security, and port operations and monitoring. Table 1.

Table 2 lists some of the typical key network requirements for these use cases. Table 2. Terminal automation network requirements Description Network requirements Terminal Operating System TOS Terminal tractors, reach stackers, RTG cranes, and similar applications 450 Kbps to 1 Mbps Variable traffic Good coverage Up to 1-second latency Optical Character Recognition OCR TOS server integrated into OCR system 15 Mbps to 20 Mbps Constant traffic 100% coverage 10- to 50-ms latency Autonomous and teleremote RTG cranes 30 Mbps for AutoSC 60 Mbps for RTG cranes Constant PLC traffic Constant video traffic 0-ms handover Coverage across the working area 50-ms latency Autonomous horizontal transport automation for Programmable Logic Controller [PLC] applications 1 Mbps for AutoSC/AGV Constant PLC traffic 0-ms handover Overlapping coverage at the working area 50-ms latency Terminal automation depends on flexible and reliable wireless technology that can provide full coverage, extremely low latency, zero packet loss, fast handoff, high bandwidth, and easy installation, provisioning, and management. Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul technology is designed with such requirements in mind and delivers unique capabilities, as outlined in Figure 7, to overcome those challenges and exceed those stringent requirements. Figure 7. Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul capabilities Connecting terminal operating system Malta Freeport Terminals, located at the center of the Miditerranean Sea, is a premier trans-shipment hub, having successfully operated for over 30 years as a vital part of the Mediterranean containerization market. The Freeport is located at the crossroads of some of the world’s most important shipping routes, making it an ideal intersection point for any shipping lines. It covers almost 2500 meters of deep-water quays, with 21 STS cranes, 65 RTG cranes, and ancillary yard equipment, amounting to a total of 250 pieces of container-handling equipment. Automation plays a vital role in the Freeport to boost the efficiency of the terminal operation, and is a strategic step to exploit the full potential in the future. The Freeport has updated its Navis Terminal Operating System with the migration to N4/XPS to keep up with the demand for optimum efficiency. To cope with demand and future growth, the Freeport needs a wireless network that can overcome the harsh environmental challenges and bring high bandwidth scale to 50 Mbps, low latency less than 5 ms, and fast roaming communication to 250 pieces of equipment, which move at speeds up to 25 km/hr across the entire terminal. Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul exceeded the Freeport’s expectations, delivering a solution that can achieve data speeds of 50 to 60 Mbps with extremely low latency of less than 3 ms and zero packet loss over distance of 600 to 800 meters. It not only meet current deployment requirements for TOS, but is also able to scale to accommodate future use cases such as remote operation of RTG cranes. Figure 8 presents a sample topology with solution components and key business outcomes. Figure 8. Connecting to the TOS Terminal automation teleremote and AGV To date, the remote supervised and fully automated container cranes are electric powered, bundled with fiber optics to provide reliable control connectivity and data transfer to remote operating stations. This has been done with RTG cranes as well, but it has been limited to fully electric ones. Moving diesel-powered RTG cranes to a remote operation model has been held back by a lack of wireless communication technology that can meet operational requirements for high bandwidth, low latency, reliability, and security. RTG crane automation requires average 60-Mbps bandwidth, with sub-50-ms latency, minimum system availability, and milliseconds handoff to operate at its full potential. The sample architecture of this use case is illustrated in Figure 9. Figure 9.
