Yes. Clients are only limited by the resources they have.

Dear Randy,

I want to connect 2 or more OPC-UA Server:
– example: opc.tcp://192.168.137.102 and opc.tcp://192.168.137.103)
– I use Visual studio 2019 C#
– Here is the code:
this.connectServerCtrl1.ServerUrl = “opc.tcp://192.168.137.102”;
string AppName = “testopcua”;
ApplicationConfiguration config = new ApplicationConfiguration()
{
ApplicationName = AppName,
ApplicationUri = Utils.Format(@”urn:{0}:” + AppName, System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()),
ApplicationType = ApplicationType.Client,
SecurityConfiguration = new SecurityConfiguration
{
ApplicationCertificate = new CertificateIdentifier
{
StoreType = @”Directory”,
StorePath = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + @”\Cert\TrustedIssuer”,
SubjectName = “CN=” + AppName + “, DC=” + System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()
},
TrustedIssuerCertificates = new CertificateTrustList
{
StoreType = @”Directory”,
StorePath = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + @”\Cert\TrustedIssuer”
},
TrustedPeerCertificates = new CertificateTrustList
{
StoreType = @”Directory”,
StorePath = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + @”\Cert\TrustedIssuer”
},
RejectedCertificateStore = new CertificateTrustList
{
StoreType = @”Directory”,
StorePath = System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath + @”\Cert\RejectedCertificates”
},
AutoAcceptUntrustedCertificates = true, //true
AddAppCertToTrustedStore = true, //true
RejectSHA1SignedCertificates = false//important
},
TransportConfigurations = new TransportConfigurationCollection(),
TransportQuotas = new TransportQuotas { OperationTimeout = 15000 },
ClientConfiguration = new ClientConfiguration { DefaultSessionTimeout = 60000 },
TraceConfiguration = new TraceConfiguration
{
DeleteOnLoad = true
},
DisableHiResClock = false

};
config.Validate(ApplicationType.Client).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
if (config.SecurityConfiguration.AutoAcceptUntrustedCertificates)
{
config.CertificateValidator.CertificateValidation += (s, ee) =>
{ ee.Accept = (ee.Error.StatusCode == StatusCodes.BadCertificateUntrusted); };
}
this.connectServerCtrl1.Configuration = config;
this.connectServerCtrl1.UserIdentity = new UserIdentity();
this.connectServerCtrl1.UseSecurity = true;

var application = new ApplicationInstance
{
ApplicationName = AppName,
ApplicationType = ApplicationType.Client,
ApplicationConfiguration = config
};
Opc.Ua.Utils.SetTraceMask(0);//
application.CheckApplicationInstanceCertificate(true, 2048).GetAwaiter().GetResult();//create certificate

connectServerCtrl1.Connect();
}

My questions:
1. how to add more connectServerCtrl1.ServerUrl address and Session for another OPC-UA Server?
2. How to add more Opc.Ua.Client.Controls.ConnectServerCtrl in Windows Form,
because there is an error ‘Failed to create component’ when I add more connectServerCtrl?

ConnectServerCtrl is sample UI control that is limited to one connection at time.

You have develop your own control if you need to connect to multiple servers at time.

You can find a non-gui example here:

https://github.com/OPCFoundati…..soleClient

That should give you the basis for a function/class that can used to connect to a single server.

Call it multiple times to connect to multiple servers.
