Question

Hello,

I'm looking for a netwerk device which shall collect data from 3 networks and forward them with timestamps on a fourth network.

On the first 2 network connections UDP broadcasts (with VLAN tags) are sent out by 2 radar devices, on the third network small TCPIP telegrams from a rotary encoder are received.

My idea of a work task (in a RUTX08) would be to collect all received telegrams of the first 3 networks, add timestamps of receipt (1ms or better) and then - as a TCPIP server - forward all telegrams on a TCPIP connection on the fourth network in case a data collection PC is connected.

Can such a task be implemented in a RUTX08 by firmware customization via SDK?

Thanks and best regards,

Joerg

Hi,

Unfortunately, we do not have a similar example to your use case.

But according to your idea, it sounds like possible and you can try.

RutOS is OpenWrt based Linux OS, so you have full root access for configuration. And for programming, you can try to use these languages: Busybox shell, Lua, C, C++
