How should we communicate? <IEC 61850 GOOSE>

It needs to communicate with many devices using the "IEC 61850 GOOSE" protocol. What should I do? Is ignition supported?

No, Ignition’s 61850 support is for MMS only.

The geese (Generic Substation Events) fly around substation networks for ultra-fast communication between relays for protection schemes and other similar things that may have traditionally been hardwired control signals. If you're already doing a 61850 substation, you might already have a good amount of the work done to use MMS as Kevin mentioned to get from your substation PLC/RTU (e.g. a SEL RTAC) to Ignition instead of a protocol like DNP3.
