<span lang="EN-US" style="color:#1F497D">I would consider getting hardware interfaces into a separate network with addresses from private pool so nothing but main server is exposed to the internet, and security considerations are not in play. You really need
to talk to your institution IT people about that. Write down all the communications required for those hardware boxes, hopefully they can figure it out for you.

<span lang="EN-US">We utilize a large array of hardware interlocks within our equipment fleet that interfaces with our software for access, training requests, reservations, invoicing, etc. Each of these relay boxes requires a static IP address. With recent
security certificate requirements in our institution getting a static IP address for new systems is becoming very arduous.

<p class="x_MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
<span lang="EN-US">Are there alternatives out there beyond the requirement of a static IP address that address current security requirements?</span></p>
