# Introduction

The **DNP Server** module enables **N3uron** to expose data to external monitoring and control systems and other operational applications using the **DNP3** **protocol** — including SCADA systems, utility control centers, dispatching systems, and other utility-grade platforms. It allows users to create and configure one or multiple **DNP3** **Slaves,** also known as **outstations,** to expose data acquired through any of the other N3uron modules, such as the [OPC UA Client](/v122/docs/opc-ua-client), [Modbus Client](/v122/docs/modbus-client), [DNP Client](/v122/docs/dnp-client), [OPC DA Client](/v122/docs/opc-da-client), [REST API Client](/v122/docs/rest-api-client-introduction), [MQTT Client](/v122/docs/mqtt-client), [Siemens Client](/v122/docs/siemens-client), [IEC 104 Client](/v122/docs/iec-104-client) and other data acquisition modules. This module supports communications over TCP.

**Supported Object Types:**
