Examples - Server OPC UA - Specify additional host name
View with Navigation Tools

.NET

// This example shows how to specify additional host name(s) for the server. This is useful when the server is running on a 
// computer that has multiple host names, and you want to make the server accessible under them.
// You can use any OPC UA client, including our Connectivity Explorer and OpcCmd utility, to connect to the server.
