OPC UA applications that make use of the LDS shall allow administrators to change the well-known addresses used within a system.
The Endpoint used by Serversto register with the LDS shall be the base address with the path “/registration” appended to it (e.g. http://localhost/UADiscovery/registration). OPC UA Serversshall allow administrators to configure the address to use for registration.
Each OPC UA Serverapplication implements the Discovery Service Set. If the OPC UA Serverrequires a different address for this Endpoint, it shall create the address by appending the path “/discovery” to its base address.
