OPCAE.NET-UA is designed to behave for the client application in the same way for UA server access as for OPC AE server access.

The UA specific configuration settings are in an additional configuration file.
The default file name is xxx.Ua.Config.Xml     with xxx being the name of the application executable.

The UaClientConfigHelper utility is provided for simple UA configuration. The utility also creates / imports / exports the required certificates. See UA Security for the requirements.

Configuration and Certificate management helper methods are provided for applications that need to handle the management internally. This requires the application to run with Administrator permissions.

Version Management

The OPCAE.NET-UA option extends the functionality of the OCPDA.NET component for access to UA servers. The extended functionality is provided in a DLL that is to be used together with the OPCAE.NET DLL.
It may be that the UA Option is more frequently updated than the base OCPDA.NET product. In this case an AssemblyBinding definition may be required in the application configuration file if a newer OPCAE.NET-UA version is used then was released with the used OPCAE.NET version.
