    Nasir,
    
    I understand your worries about pen-testing a PLC-environment, but pen-testing means testing worst-case scenarios in a controlled environment.  I want to be sure that at my customers it is not possible to perform attacks against the PLC's.
    
    BTW, I also found out that in many cases people use serial-in-tcp/ip tunneling devices such as from Lantronix for their PLC connectivity.  These devices can be reset to factory default by sending a "R" to port 9999 of the device.
