that would definitely be helpful. As far as I can see, DVB-CI is an example that does not fit into the current mechanism very well. CI is not based on tcp/ip, a ci session looks like open_session_request(resource_id) session_opened(newly assigned session number) payload transfer(session_number, payload data) ... close session(session_number) For now, how would you create a conversation from this? I've been playing with a new port_type PT_DVBCI_SESSION_NUMBER and set both source and destination port to the session number. Does that make sense or is there a better approach?
