Carrying EDI/UDP over the Internet will not work because of +burst packet loss, and EDI resend is not implemented. + +With ODR-EDI2EDI, you can convert EDI/TCP to EDI/UDP on a small PC that is +close to your device. It also allows you buffer the EDI and release it at a +controlled point in time depending on the in-band timestamp. + +You can also fan-out an EDI data stream to several destinations. + +This tool can be considered to be the successor of ODR-ZMQ2EDI which is +distributed as a part of ODR-DabMux. + +Installation +------------ + +Requirements: A C++11 compiler, autotools (debian: `build-essential automake libtool`) + + ./bootstrap.sh + ./configure + make + sudo make install |
