Make it possible to filter on nodes in Kepware when importing tags using OPC-UA Client driver

Make it possible to filter on nodes in Kepware when importing tags using OPC-UA Client driver

When a SCADA/Device has enormous amount of tags/nodes exposed under one parent Node in OPC-UA, its hard to find the right child node. There is no filter to filter out nodes using the Tag Generation feature on the OPC UA Client driver. AS-IS it can only filter out Leaf tags. 

 

This makes it enormous time-consuming to navigate in the OPC-UA server when there is a flat node structure. E.g. try to find a node with a specific name in a unsorted list of 1000 nodes by browsing.

 

Proposal: Enhance the Leaf filter for the OPC UA Client driver under Tag generation with a node filter that makes it possible to filter any level in the tree structure exposed by the OPC-UA server.
