Smart-Serial as Server receiving batches of messages from multiple IPs

Hi,

I believe this is not supported based on the DDL.

The protocol will be opening and closing sockets.

Fragment form Stream Viewer:

Socket created for 10.182.192.141
Socket created for 10.182.193.75
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
Socket created for 10.182.193.75
<< 11:26:37 – ResponseToComcast
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
Socket created for 10.182.193.75
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
Socket created for 10.182.192.141
Socket created for 10.182.193.75
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
<< 11:26:37 – ResponseToComcast
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming raw data
Socket for 10.182.192.141:35330 closed
>> 11:26:37 – Incoming data
<< 11:26:37 – ResponseToComcast
Socket for 10.182.192.141:35328 closed
Socket for 10.182.193.75:42666 closed
Socket for 10.182.193.75:42668 closed
Socket for 10.182.193.75:42670 closed
Socket for 10.182.193.75:42672 closed

It may send the message response to the wrong IP.

Is there a way to support batches of messages in DataMiner and reply to the proper source.

Maybe to have different elements listening to each IP.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Julio,

I believe in this case you could define an element for each source (or sources). In this case you will need to use the option Accepted IP address in the element configuration:

From DataMiner Help:

Available from DataMiner 9.6.13 onwards, if a smart-serial server port of type TCP is used. Allows you to specify one or more allowed IP addresses for the connection. The element will then only communicate with those IP addresses. This configuration makes it possible for several elements to listen on the same port but communicate exclusively with a different set of IPs.

Hi, see this help section part “Replying to a single client”. If you want to send data to a specific client when receiving data from that client then have a trigger “after response” and execute the group with the command(s). The command(s) in that group will then be sent back to that specific client.
