1.3. NetSDR Ethernet Interface
The NetSDR runs as a TCP/IP Server allowing a single client connection. The NetSDR primarily communicates at
the “Transport Layer” or Layer 4 of the OSI Reference Model. Both TCP and UDP are used to provide command and
data interfaces back to the client. A DHCP client may also be enabled that uses broadcast UDP to automatically obtain
network configuration from a local DHCP server. There is also a custom broadcast UDP system for setting up network
and other parameters as well as finding an unknown SDR on a network.
Even though there is only one physical Ethernet connection, one can think of the NetSDR interface as multiple logical
connections. The primary control and status messaging is done on a single TCP socket that provides guaranteed delivery
of the control and status messages. The high speed digitized data is a separate UDP path from the NetSDR back to the
Client. This normally goes back to the same IP address as the TCP control socket but it may optionally go to a secondary
IP client address on a different computer.
