@ -435,9 +435,24 @@ An "MLAT Hub" is an aggregator of MLAT results from several sources. Since the c
- make the consolidated MLAT results available on a port in Beast or SBS (BaseStation) format
- create outbound connections using any supported format to send your Beast data wherever you want
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. Adding these sources only to `MLATHUB_NET_CONNECTOR` will make the data available on the MLATHUB, but won't display them on your `tar1090` map.
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` or `ULTRAFEEDER_CONFIG=mlat,...` parameters. If you want to show any MLAT results from sources that have their own feeder containers (for example, those from `piaware`), you should add these sources like this:
Generally, there is little to configure, but there are a few parameters that you can set or change:
```yaml
- ULTRAFEEDER_CONFIG=mlathub,host,port,protocol;
```
Where:
- `host` is the hostname where the `MLAT results` are coming from. This can be another container name (e.g., `piaware`) or the IP address of your machine on which `mlat-client` is running. Note -- this is NOT the hostname or IP of the MLAT Server or aggregator that processes the MLAT data
- `port` is the port on which the `mlat-client` on the `host` makes its results available
- `protocol` is the output protocol which is almost always `beast_in`
For example:
```yaml
- ULTRAFEEDER_CONFIG=mlathub,piaware,30105,beast_in;
```
Generally, there is little else to configure, but there are a few parameters that you can set or change:
