I'm trying to receive data(only receive) from an external sensor that is communicating on Port 10111 via UDP. I'm having trouble very similar to https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/UDP-receiver-does-not-receive-messages/td-p/3324917. Wireshark shows the UDP Packets rolling in, but I can't get LabVIEW to receive them. I'm unable to completely disable the firewall for testing due to IT restrictions, but I was able to put in rules to allow UDP communication through port 10111. I'm using LabVIEW 8.0. The value I put in to the "Listen to Port" control is "10111". When the VI is running, and I use the netstat -an command, I do see the port 0.0.0.0:10111. Anyone have any ideas? This seemed like it was going to be so simple, but I'm stumped.
With Labview 8, there isn't even an input for an address. My understanding is that without the address, it'll listen to all traffic on the specified Port regardless of the address.
I have tried a larger time-out to no avail. However, I discovered that the "Exceptions" that I was putting in the firewall weren't actually active. Looks like I'm out of luck unless I can get the IT guys to let me poke a hole in the firewall...
