Manage Data from Center to Edge

In a real factory, data is often collected by edge devices and managed from a central node to reduce network bandwidth usage and improve data security. Tier0 provides a fleet management solution to manage data on edge nodes from a central node.

Connecting Edge Nodes to the Center

1. Create fleet nodes on the central node first.

   Note

   The number of edge nodes that can be connected depends on the license.

2. Use the token generated by the central node to connect each edge node.

Syncing Data between Edge and Center

• UNS data can be selected and synced only from edge nodes to the central node. Once synced, both history and real-time data of the selected topics will be available on the central node.
• From the central node, you can assign users or user groups to edge nodes for node management.

Note

Set application access permission to user groups on the central node first, so that users in the group can access allowed applications on edge nodes.
