Client/Server does everything Master/Slave does as above PLUS the Server can automatically send information to the Clients
So the Server can be configured to send a Report to the Client(s) every time the CB position changes - noting the Report can be configured to be sent to multiple Clients.
So in this protection trip followed by autoreclose example, if it is Client/Server, the Server would Report the CB opening (as a result of the protection operation) automatically to the ALL the configured Client(s) who are supposed to know about it, and also Report the CB closing again to the Client(s).
The only possibility of the Clients not knowing all operations is if the Report doesn't arrive at the Client(s)
Hence we have two types of Client/Server Reports - Unbuffered and Buffered.
