That will be explained in the Kepware documentation. It really isn't a question for the Ignition forum.

Ignition comes with Allen-Bradley OPC drivers so you can read tags directly from the PLC.  
Why do you think you need to "fetch from Kepware"?

I'm not sure what your question has to do with the OP? Other than being about the same opc UA server, kepware. I've marked as off topic, as I don't have the super powers to split it off

I would eliminate Kepware. It is an extra point of failure, configuration and maintenance that you don't need.
