UDP client does not start to send in AP mode

Postby GvTardy » Wed Mar 13, 2019 8:21 pm

Hi to everybody,

I have a problem with a UDP client setup:

I start a DHCP server, then
WIFI in AP mode.
Once this is done I start a UDP client in a task.

This works all without problems, I can connect to it with my computer, receive an address and start sending UDP messages.
The bad thing is: I do not receive any of these messages until I send at message from the UDP server on my computer to the ESP32. This message from my terminal program (YAT) seems to wake up a part of the ESP, as after this, I get the messages.

Here's the code:
Initialisation of the tcpip adapter and ESP32 as softAP:
  1. EventGroupHandle_t wifi_event_group;
  2. const int AP_STARTED_BIT = BIT0;
  3. const int STA_CONNECTED_BIT = BIT1;
  4. const int STA_DISCONNECTED_BIT = BIT2;
  5. const int UDP_SOCKED_BINDING = BIT3;
  6.  
  7. static esp_err_t event_handler(void *ctx, system_event_t *event)
  8. {
  9.     switch(event->event_id) {
  10.     case SYSTEM_EVENT_AP_START:
  11.         ESP_LOGI("WIFI_AP","ESP32 is started in AP mode");
  12.         xEventGroupSetBits(wifi_event_group, AP_STARTED_BIT);
  13.         break;
  14.        
  15.     case SYSTEM_EVENT_AP_STACONNECTED:
  16.         ESP_LOGI("WIFI_AP", "station:"MACSTR" join, AID=%d",
  17.                  MAC2STR(event->event_info.sta_connected.mac),
  18.                  event->event_info.sta_connected.aid);
  19.         xEventGroupSetBits(wifi_event_group, STA_CONNECTED_BIT);
  20.         esp_wifi_set_ps(WIFI_PS_NONE);
  21.         break;
  22.  
  23.     case SYSTEM_EVENT_AP_STADISCONNECTED:
  24.         ESP_LOGI("WIFI_AP", "station:"MACSTR"leave, AID=%d",

As global defines I have

#define WIFI_IP_ADDR "192.168.1.1"
#define UDP_SENDER_ADDR WIFI_IP_ADDR
#define UDP_RECEIVER_ADDR INADDR_BROADCAST

#define UDP_SENDER_PORT 3001
#define UDP_RECEIVER_PORT 3000

I have other tasks running in parallel, everything on one core.

Does anyone have an idea why I do not receive any UDP messages on my computer before I send a single message to the ESP32?

Am I missing out on starting something, is something not configured or needs to be woken up?

I searched the internet for hours, updated ESP IDP, the terminal program, alas, no success.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this, check the code and hopefully come back with an solution.

The code is based on various examples. As I do not read and messages from the connected station (computer), I do not use the receive section. It is not checked or cleaned in any way.

Kind regards

Hi to everybody reading,

I fiddled more with my code and got is solved tonight, but I do not understand why.

I will post the complete code tomorrow with comments. It is getting late tonight, so my apologies for not doing so right away.

Very kind regards
Georg

Re: UDP client does not start to send in AP mode

Postby GvTardy » Thu Mar 14, 2019 9:03 pm

Dear all,

unfortunately I have to revise my last nights reply.

If I give the ESP32 a full power cycle (not just make monitor), the connection to the terminal will not work prior to sending a message (e.q "1") to the ESP.

I corrected/cleaned the code a bit and post it again here.

Does anyone have a clue why is behaves like this:
- start the ESP -> it initializes the TCPIP connection with the ESP in softAP mode
- it waits for a computer/station to connect
- my connecting computer has the UDP terminal already started and setup upon connecting to the AP
- in the serial monitor I get messages that the UDP client has sent a UDP message, but nothing arrives in my terminal
- after sending any message (1 character) I receive the UDP messages from the ESP

I would like to receive the messages without sending a something from the UDP server (my laptop) first.

Kind regards
Georg

P.S. attached the code, I omitted the routine calling WIFI_AP_init(). This is the entry point.

Re: UDP client does not start to send in AP mode

Postby GvTardy » Sat Mar 16, 2019 12:22 pm

Hello everyone,

I installed Wireshark to monitor the UDP traffic. Interesting finding:

The ESP32 does start sending messages as soon as the station (my Laptop) has connected.

BUT: non of my terminal programs starts displaying these messages before I send a line to the ESP32
(Hercules, YAT, script commander)

I have no clue why the terminal programs start displaying messages after sending a line. Is this related to the terminals, is this a driver issue (windows 10)? Related to the Firewall...

I have not found a practical workaround yet.

So, the issue has not been solved but it is not on the side of the ESP32.

I would be very if anybody had an idea how I can log the UDP messages by just opening a logger.

Kind regards
Georg

Firewall !!!

I missed a specific setting for public, non protected networks...

Alas, a stupid way to burn so much time, but at least it's working now.

Greetings
Georg
