Serial RF Bridge Broadcast
When a serial port is operating in Serial/RF Bridge mode, the packets received by the Viper from the serial port are
sent over RF to all remote Vipers so they can pass this data over their corresponding serial port. The sending Viper
achieves this by using a broadcast IP address. On reception, the remote Viper will pass this data over its serial port
AND optionally send the data over its LAN port.
RF Only
When receiving Serial/RF bridge data from a remote Viper over RF, pass it to the corresponding serial port and
do not send a copy of the data over the LAN port.
When transmitting Serial/RF bridge data to remote Vipers over RF, do not send a copy on the LAN port.
RF and LAN
When receiving Serial/RF bridge data from a remote Viper over RF, pass it to the corresponding serial port and
send a copy of the data over to the LAN port.
When transmitting Serial/RF bridge data to remote Vipers over RF, send a copy over the LAN port.
