Hello together,
I am searching for a way to connect the CtrlX Core OPC UA client to an external OPC-UA server using a certificate and private key?
Within the OPC UA Client app I can only choose between "Anonymous" and "Username/Password". There is no direct option to choose a certifcate. Since there are possible ways to upload certificates within CtrlX Core I hope that there is also a possibility?
The connection in trial is established using the UA Expert tool where I am able to assign and choose the certificate way.
Working: UA-Expert (certifcate):
CtrlX core:
Certificates within CtrlX Core:
Would be great if someone can support me in how to establish the connection to the external server using the stored certificate.
Thanks for your support!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello,
the OPC UA client, inside the ctrlX CORE, only supports authentication with user/password (or anonymous).
The authentication with certificate and private key, you are searching for, is actual not implemented.
