Menu Item Description
udp
Similar to tcp(tunnel) mode, use UDP mode when reception
acknowledgement of the data packets is not required. UDP is a
connectionless channel, therefore, it is not necessary to initiate or
accept connections. This makes for slightly faster data flow. Setting
the Remote IP address to all zeros puts UDP into "reply mode" and
the iPocket
232 will send data to the last address it received data
from. For peer-to-peer communication, the host address must match
the Remote IP defined in configuration.
