Modex Daemon
The Modex Daemon module controls all direct communication between the
EtherLoop modems and the BitStorm Server. It is started at bootup and runs
continuously. The daemon executes functions on the EtherLoop modems such
as the following:
• SNMP get/set commands
• EtherCraft modem status polling and controls
• EtherLoop modem firmware downloads
The Modex Daemon module contains operations to start and stop the daemon
without having to re-start the BitStorm Server, and to configure which
BitStorm Server interface (ETH 0 or ETH 1) the Modex daemon will use.
