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.
The configuration of the UDPv4 sender module with name NAME
is located in the udp4senders/NAME subdirectory.
The file instream contains the name of the stream to
read.
The frames received from this stream are sent over the network.
The protocol to use is configured in the file protocol.
It can contain the string blp, eblp or
mcuf to select the BLP, EBLP or MCUF protocol respectively.
The file bind contains the local address to bind to.
It must contain the IP address and the port, i.e. a string
<IP>:<port> (hostnames are not supported).
If the local address should be determined automatically, the file
can contain 0.0.0.0:0.
Static destinations to supply with a network stream in the configured
protocol can be configured in the subdirectory destinations.
Each static destination is configured in an own subdirectory.
E.g. the configuration for a static destination with name
local resides in the subdirectory
destinations/local.
The configuration inside a static destination consists of the following settings:
The file addr contains the destination address
as a string <IP>:<port>
(hostnames are not supported).
