Abstract
The embodiments relate to a method and a test system for testing integrity of property data of a device using a testing device within a network, the devices and their respective property data within the network, such as all the measurement or control device distributed inside an industrial automation system, being taken into account in order to simplify testing of a large number of devices. The various property data are tested for an identity and are labelled, and calculations, which are carried out by the testing device for testing purposes, are initiated on the basis of the labelling. By taking other devices in the system into account, security requirements may be fulfilled during testing and the computational effort for the testing device may also be reduced.
