Receive Process and Port Configuration
Multiple Port Configuration
The scripting library has the capability to configure multiple ports. This allows to deploy a single receiver with multiple ports. In another word, this will allow a single receiver to receive data for a single SPEAD stream coming from multiple processes.
Now, assuming each sender sends data for 1 channel and all baselines, then we’ll want to have as many ports as
channels on the receiver side. For cbf-receive, a single receiver process can receive on multiple ports already,
and this is configurable via reception.receiver_port_start
and reception.num_ports
.
