Provided is a method for automatically registering a user on a field device for the purpose of administering the field device, including a) providing user information on the basis of an identity of the user and an identity of the field device by a security device; b) transmitting the provided user information to a mobile device of the user; c) generating field-device-specific registration information on the basis of the transmitted user information by the mobile device; and d) registering the user on the field device by the generated registration information. This method has the particular advantage that a highly secure infrastructure can be used for administering access information for administering the field devices without problems arising during the registration process.
A method for automatically registering a user on a field device for the purpose of administering the field device, comprising:
An automation system having a number of field devices and at least one security device, wherein the at least one security device is configured for cryptographically storing user information for the number of field devices and wherein the security device is not connected to the internet, wherein each field device from the number of field devices is administrable by at least one user, wherein administering a respective instance of the field devices requires registration with the respective field device by field-device-specific registration information and administering is not permitted over the internet, wherein a mobile device of the at least one user is configured for retrieving user information from the at least one security device on the basis of an identity of the at least one user and an identity of the respective field device, wherein the user information is retrieved using a local communication connection, and wherein the mobile device is configured for generating the field-device-specific registration information on the basis of the retrieved user information and for outputting the generated registration information.
