Re: How to print Socket PDU messages on the terminal?

Hi Shumin,

netcat (nc) uses TCP by default, but your Socket PDU is set to UDP. So
you are sending and listening to two different sockets.

There are two ways to fix that (but don't apply both at the same time or
it won't work again):
1. Switch the PDU Socket type to TCP Server (like it is done it the
reference you linked).
2. Use the command "nc -u 127.0.0.1 52001" where the -u option will make
netcat use UDP instead.

Yours
Martin
