    Hello,<br>
    <br>
    I am not sure it supports right now sending from the same socket,
    but it should send back to same ip and port from where it received
    the command. A patch it might be required to get it like that, so
    far I don&#39;t remember anyone willing to get such thing.<br>
    <br>
    Btw, another alternative, you can eventually use sercmd with ctl
    module -- it works also over tcp (as well as udp). You can run any
    MI command via &#39;mi&#39;, like:<br>
    <br>
    sercmd ... mi address_dump<br>
    <br>
    Look at sercmd -h for the options.<br>
    <br>
    So you don&#39;t need to build a script around nc.<br>
    <br>
    Cheers,<br>

      <div>I have implemented mi_datagram module and defined it with the
        following parameters:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>modparam(&quot;mi_datagram&quot;, &quot;socket_name&quot;, &quot;udp:<a href="http://2.2.2.2:8033" target="_blank">2.2.2.2:8033</a>&quot;)</div>
      <div><br>

      <div>When i run the below command from a remote server:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>echo -ne &quot;:address_dump:\n\n&quot; | nc -w 1 -u 2.2.2.2 8033</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>i don&#39;t receive an output, but when i monitor all traffic on
        the local machine:</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>ngrep -q -t -P &quot;&quot; -W byline -d any host 2.2.2.2 and udp</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>i observe the output:</div>

      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Seems like the command is accepted from remote server and
        executed on local machine but not relayed back to the remote
        server. Looks like mi_datagram replies on different port other
        than 8033. Is there a way to force the reply on source port
        8033?</div>

              if you want to execute from a remote server, maybe it is
              better to use mi_datagram or xmlrpc modules to run MI/RPC
