You'll notice here we have our built-in Ignition OPC-UA server, but we want to connect to Kepware so we're going to click this Create new OPC Server Connection link. We then need to scroll down to the OPC Connections section and click on the Servers link. If we wanted to connect to a Kepware OPC-UA server, we first need to go to the Configuration section of the gateway webpage. This can greatly expand the range of devices that we can connect to. Ignition's OPC-UA server is great, because it can act as both an OPC-UA server and an OPC-UA client allowing it to connect to third party OPC-UA servers such as Kepware.
While Ignition has built-in drivers that allows it to connect to some devices, it doesn't have a driver for every single type of device.
