[Tinyos-help] Run Multiple Serial Forwarders??

[Aditya Bhave]

If Im not mistaken, SerialForward acts like a server and forwards serial
port data or (in your case ethernet data to a TCP port) So what is the point
of using multiple Serial Forwards when you have only one MIB600 board
connected to the PC? Basically different packet types (from sensors in diff
buildings) will come over the ethernet wire into your PC. The Serial
Forwarder will put all those packets onto some TCP port (10002) and you need
to write another application (like Oscilloscope) that reads from this port
and takes actions depending on the packet types.

Please correct me if Ive missed some obvious point here
