Re: Can somebody give me a run-down on NetworkTables connections?
After looking at the LV default robot code and dashboard projects, it looks like a server is instantiated, and then sends/reads Key:Value pairs in a table. The NT Server listens on a specified TCP/IP port, and the Client creates a TCP connection to some IP address and a specified port.

So then, how does that implementation work? Is there anything I missed that might be crucial to using something else?
