NAME

sdatest - LTP service data aggreggation test program

SYNOPSIS

sdatest [remoteEngineNbr]

DESCRIPTION

sdatest tests LTP service data aggregation (SDA).

Each instance of the program can run either as a sender and receiver or as a receiver only. For sending, sdatest starts a background thread that offers a command-line prompt and accepts strings of text for transmission. It uses SDA to aggregate the strings into LTP service data items for LTP client ID 2, which is SDA. The strings (SDA data units) are delimited by terminating NULLs, and they are all identified by SDA client ID number 135.

For reception, sdatest listens for LTP traffic for client 2. When it receives an LTP Service data item (in an LTP block), it parses out all of the SDA data units aggregated in that data item and prints them to stdout.

Use ^C to terminate sdatest.
