I am needing to set up a network of one central gateway, with multiple edge gateways in a sort of wheel-and-spoke pattern. How can I set up an edge gateway project to inherit from the "global" project held on the central gateway?

You cannot inherit across gateways, whether Edge or Standard.

Edge only permits one project.

EAM allows you to push projects from one gateway to another (and "flatten" inherited projects into a single project for use on Edge)
