From my research I believe that Ignition Edge Enterprise essentially acts as a remote tag provider to a centralized Ignition Gateway just as tags would be shared between two traditional gateways - I may be wrong though. Regardless, can anyone explain how that communication works as far as it being pushed or pulled?

Thanks,
