Dear All, We have over 100 different types of PLCs that are connected to Teltonika modem devices. Our point is how to connect Teltonika devices with ignition platform via Modbus RTU over Serial/Modbus TCP? Note :- Ignition server located on AWS cloud. Thanks and Regards, Chirag K ---

Polling protocols like Modbus (especially wrapped Modbus over serial) are not going to work well in any cloud gateway situation, where latency is always going to be both higher and more variable. I would strongly suggest setting up a more local gateway and broadcasting the tags from there via MQTT, our remote tag provider system, or some other mechanism. ---

Hello PGriffith, Thanks for the update, that means we setups one edge server as located local server. After that we connect local edge with cloud gateway and share all tags through tag provider/mqtt module. M right? Local edge connect with all teltonika devices. Thanks & regards Chirag k. ---

Yes. The "edge of network" gateway running at your local facility _could_ be running [Ignition Edge](https://page.inductiveautomation.com/ignition-edge), but certainly doesn't _have_ to be. ---

Also note that IA's Cloud Edition, if that is what you intend to use, does **NOT** have the Modbus driver (or any other polling protocol driver). For this very reason. ---

our ignition server located on Cloud. Our 100 PLC panel located at different locations and all PLC (siemens S7 1200) connected with Teltonika RUT955 modem devices. Our thing is how can communicate Teltonika RUT955 and Ignition SCADA through VPN & MQTT Communication? For Transferring the data between PLC S7 1200 (Siemense) to Cloud Ignition Server, which Driver is required for data transfer without any interruption (Through VPN). Same as For Transferring the data between Rs485 Modbus (Flow Tx) to Cloud Ignition Server through Teltonika RUT955, which Driver is required for data transfer without any interruption (Through MQTT).
