Unidata
Using the LDM to ingest from more than one satellite receiver on a single server
Hello,
If one has two Novras (or other brand receiver) for NOAAport, or any other data feed like GRB, there is currently no way to have two NOAAport receivers, and then, through a config file, decide which one you want to feed from using the same server. That is, let's say we have a single server network configuration like this:
Eth0: LAN Eth1: NOAAport receiver #1 Eth2: NOAAport receiver #2
Let's suppose NOAAport receiver 1 and NOAAport receiver 2 are from different dishes at the same facility receiving the same broadcast. I want the ability to change things in a configuration file such that I can restart the LDM, and change which one of the two I can feed from. I would also like the possibility of being able to feed from both from the same time, if one dish is receiving NOAAport, and another is receiving GRB, as an example. Is there a simple flag that can be done like a value of 0, 1, 2, 3 in a config line to determine which port(s) to feed from separately or concurrently?
The noaaportIngester(1) option "-I ip_addr" will restrict input to a particular interface.
