low overhead resulting in minimal impact to network performance. The control application sends a UDP request to SSPA unit and waits for response. The length of time the control application waits depends on how it is configured. If the timeout is reached and the control application has not heard back from the agent, it assumes the packet was lost and retransmits the request. The number of the retransmissions is user configurable.

The Paradise Datacom SSPA Ethernet IP interface can use UDP ports from 0 to 65553 for sending and receiving. The receiving port needs to be specified through the front panel menu. For sending, it will use the port from which the UDP request originated. Of course, it is up to the user to select an appropriate pair of ports that are not conflicting with standard IP ser- vices. Paradise Datacom recommends usage of ports 1038 and 1039. These ports are not assigned to any known application.

As an application layer protocol (which actually carries meaningful data), the standard SSPA serial protocol was selected. This protocol proves to be extremely flexible and efficient. It is also media independent and can be easily wrapped into another protocol data frame. An ex- ample of the UDP frame with encapsulated Paradise Datacom protocol frame is shown on Figure 8-6.
