Hi,

There's been a few times where I have had to pass the connection string
information through to the driver logic to be used in the connection phase.
For OPC-UA it's passed as a string through to the OPCUA device to help
select the correct endpoint. As well as now in the Profinet driver as we
need to create multiple sockets and use multiple protocols to create the
connection, some of which we need to know what interface we would like to
listen on.

I propose to extend the Configuration interface to include the connection
string information such as the ip address, port and transport. This way I'm
not recreating the getConnection logic for each driver.

What are peoples thoughts?

Ben
