Instead of (or in addition to) using `BEASTHOST`, you can also define ADSB data ingests using the `READSB_NET_CONNECTOR` parameter. This is the preferred way if you have multiple sources or destinations for your ADSB data. This variable allows you to configure incoming and outgoing connections. The variable takes a semicolon (`;`) separated list of `host,port,protocol[,uuid=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX]`, where:

##### MLAT configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The Ultrafeeder contains a capability to send MLAT data to MLAT servers to be processed, and to receive the MLAT results and integrate those with an MLAT Hub and the `tar1090` map.
|
||||
It will create a separate instance of `mlat-client` for each defined MLAT server. The parameters for these `mlat-client` instances is as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
...
|
||||
- MLAT_CONFIG=
|
||||
mlat-server1.com,port1,return_port1,uuid=1234-5678-90123,--extra-argument hello;
|
||||
mlat-server2.com,port2,return_port2,uuid=5678-9012-34567,--extra-argument hello
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
where:
|
||||
|
||||
* `mlat-server.com` is the domain name or ip address of the target MLAT server (mandatory)
|
||||
* `port` is the port (TCP or UDP) of the target MLAT server (mandatory)
|
||||
* `return_port` is the port at which the MLAT results are made available in BEAST format. We recommend to sequentially number them starting at 39000 (optional)
|
||||
* `uuid=xxxx` defines a unique user ID for this MLAT server instance. If included, the string must start with `uuid=` (optional)
|
||||
* `extra-arguments` are any additional command line arguments that you would like to use for this MLAT Client instance (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
Note - the three optional parameters (`return_port`, `uuid=`, and `extra-arguments`) can be given in any order.
|
||||
|
||||
If no UUID is specified with the `MLAT_CONFIG` parameter, it will use the value of the `UUID` parameter if it exists. If that fails, no UUID parameter is included with `mlat-client`.

All of the variables below are optional.

Note - due to design limitations of `readsb`, the `tar1090` graphical interface will by default ONLY show MLAT results from the aggregators/MLAT sources that were defined with the `MLAT_NET_CONNECTOR` parameter. If you want to show any additional MLAT results (for example, those from `piaware`), you should add a separate `READSB_NET_CONNECTOR` for them.
