Remote Node Propagation

The NodeDrawer with the Remote Node Propagation mode is an addition to the Model Propagation. Make sure to fully understand the propagation concept before continuing.

Since the 47.2.0 version, it's possible to use a NodeDrawer with different modes. The Remote Node Propagation is VERY specific as it is very similar to the Local mode: it will allow you to create/update/delete zones in the LOCAL station, but after a propagation to a remote station, it will allow to run strategies using ExtractFromList on the slots created through a SourceSelectionTag in the remote station.

Strategies using the ExtractFromList block won't work in the Local station anymore

Stations configurations

We will take a basic architecture based on two stations: a Supervisor and a Jace.
See Initial step Configure your NiagaraNetworks to see how to configure two stations with the correct desired roles (The Jace will be the subordinate).

As for the model propagation, the Node Drawer with the Remote Node Propagation mode won't work on PEER stations

Node Drawer Configuration

Simply set the mode to Remote Node Propagation and it's done.

You can now create zones, propagate them in remote stations and use specific strategies on the propagated values.
