Hello Support Team,

Can somebody advice me? Can UAGateway link directly with Kepware's KEPServerEX (which is an OPC UA server)? Meaning at the remote site user have a server with Kepware's KEPServerEX installed and then pass data to local server where UAGateway bundle with PcVue is installed?

Normally what we have done is UA Gateway on both server and client site. So I am not sure if UA Gateway Client can connect directly to UA Server by Kepware.

I understand theoretically from Edouard that since both UAGateway and KEPServerEX are using standard UA protocol they should be able to communicate to each other, but I just want to be sure before I advise the same to our client. Has anyone done this before and it is working?

Thanks,
Kantha

To add a little bit more context, what we are trying to do is something like this. The server that have PcVue running will be bundled with UA Gateway. On remote server there is KEPServerEX (OPC UA Server) which we are trying to connect from PcVue.

Can we make direct connection using UA Gateway in the PcVue server to the KEPServerEX on the remote machine, without needed another UAGateway Server on the remote side?
