Question 31

What capability does Modbus TCP/IP operate under?
  • A Multicast communication
  • B Peer-to-peer communication
  • C Broadcast-only mode
  • D Client-server capability
Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Modbus TCP/IP operates under a client-server capability, where a client (e.g., a SCADA system) sends requests to a server (e.g., a PLC) to read or write data over TCP/IP networks. This model ensures structured communication in industrial environments. It does not rely on multicast or broadcast-only modes, nor is it peer-to-peer, as its architecture is designed for client-initiated requests to server devices.
