These parameters are related to MTX-Tunnel data communication using the UDP protocol. It is needed in the GPRS (UDP) – Serial (RS232/485) tunnel.

UDP_IP

Description: end IP address where MTX-Tunnel will send data to in UDP protocol. MTX-Tunnel needs be set in UDP mode (MTX_mode: udp).

Possible values:

  • IP address format XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. DNS text string can be also used
  • Default value: none

Additional notes:

  • The use of the UDP communication protocol is only recommended in applications with a large amount of remote devices that need to connect to a server. It will save data traffic but keep in mind that it is not a connection-oriented protocol (no ACK)
  • From MTX-Tunnel version 7.17 it is possible to specify up to 5 IP addresses to send/receive the UDP data; you just need to separate the IP addresses by a comma “,” For example:
    UDP_IP: 100.101.102.1,200.201.202.2,200.201.202.10

UDP_localPort

Description: Local UDP port used in UDP communication mode (MTX_mode: udp).

Possible values:

  • 1… 65535
  • Default value: 20010

Additional notes:

  • The use of UDP communication protocol is only recommended in applications with a large amount of remote devices that need to connect to a server. It will save data traffic but keep in mind that it is not a connection-oriented protocol (no ACK)

UDP_remotePort

Description: Remote device’s UDP port to where MTX-Tunnel sends serial data in UDP communication mode (MTX_mode: udp).

Possible values:

  • 1… 65535
  • Default value: 20010

Additional notes:
