EIBD is a similar open source tool implementing the EIBnet/IP protocol. It is part of the BCUsdk, a software development kit to write applications that can be downloaded into a KNX device. For more information, please refer to the projects Sourceforge site: http://bcusdk.sourceforge.net.
EIBD features its own client interface. Clients have been implemented for several other projects, including:
To take advantage of these developments, EIBnetmux features an EIBD-compatible client interface which allows it to function as a drop-in replacement for EIBD for the above projects (and others).
However, due to a different focus, EIBnetmux only implements a subset of the functions offered by EIBD. The following command verbs are understood:
| Code | Description | 
|---|---|
| 0x0012 | EIB_OPEN_VBUSMONITOR | 
| 0x0022 | EIB_OPEN_T_GROUP | 
| 0x0023 | EIB_OPEN_T_BROADCAST | 
| 0x0025 | EIB_APDU_PACKET | 
| 0x0026 | EIB_OPEN_GROUPCON | 
| 0x0027 | EIB_GROUP_PACKET |
