<h1>Blinker - UDPv4 Sender</h1>
<p>
The UDPv4 sender module sends a stream using UDP version 4 across
a network.
It supports the static and dynamic variants of the BLP, EBLP and MCUF
protocols.
</p>
<h2>Configuration</h2>
<p>
The configuration of the UDPv4 senderr module with name <code>NAME</code>
is located in the <code>udp4senders/NAME</code> subdirectory.
</p>
<h3>Input Stream</h3>
<p>
The file <code>instream</code> contains the name of the stream to
read.
The frames received from this stream are sent over the network.
</p>
<h3>Bind Address</h3>
<p>
The file <code>bind</code> contains the local address to bind to.
It must contain the IP address and the port, i.e. a string
<code><IP>:<port></code> (hostnames are not supported).
If the local address should be determined automatically, the file
can contain <code>0.0.0.0:0</code>.
</p>
<h3>Static Destinations</h3>
<p>
Static destinations to supply with a network stream in BLP, EBLP
or MCUF protocol can be configured in the subdirectories
<code>blp</code>, <code>eblp</code> and <code>mcuf</code> respectively.
Each static destination is configured in an own subdirectory.
E.g. the configurations for static MCUF destinations with name
<code>local</code> resides in the subdirectory
<code>mcuf/local</code>.
</p>
<p>
The configuration inside a static destination consists of the following
settings:
</p>
<h4>Destination address</h4>
<p>
The file <code>addr</code> contains the destination address
as a string <code><IP>:<port></code>
(hostnames are not supported).
