It eavesdrops (packet sniffs) the data going in to and out of the gateway daemons to locate packets that it believes it needs deal with, then transports them over a separate Internet port to other DPLUS based systems, either reflectors, DV Dongles, or other DPLUS equipped gateways and proxies (packet insertion) local delivery out to the controller. DPLUS has no control over native D-STAR routing (callsign) or Icom's gateway enhancements (/callsign and multicasting). The only thing he can affect is DPLUS behavior, Nate's solution is a good one and could be setup as a configurable parameter. - John, K7VE
