Server enters registration mode (60-second window) 2. Satellite sends registration command with MAC/room/alias 3. Server validates and creates registration file 4. Server assigns satellite ID and responds 5. Registration mode automatically expires ### Satellite Connection Process 1. Satellite sends hello command with credentials 2. Server validates against registration files 3. Server assigns audio stream ports 4. Connection established with session ID 5. Heartbeat monitoring begins ### Wakeword Detection Workflow 1. Satellite detects wakeword and pauses detection 2. Wakeword command sent with confidence/volume data 3. Server arbitrates between multiple satellites 4. Highest volume satellite selected for conversation 5. Recording session begins with conversation ID ## 🛠️ Usage Examples ### Server Setup ```python from trixy_core.application import create_application_container from trixy_core.config import DeploymentMode app = create_application_container(DeploymentMode.SERVER) network_manager = app.get_network_manager() # Start server with default ports network_manager.start_server( command_port=2101, audio_ports={ 'input': 2102, 'output': 2103, 'music': 2104 } ) # Enter registration mode server = network_manager.server_handler server.enter_registration_mode(timeout_seconds=60) ``` ### Client Setup ```python app = create_application_container(DeploymentMode.CLIENT) network_manager = app.get_network_manager() # Configure satellite identity network_manager.configure_satellite( room_id="kitchen", alias="main_device", mac_address="aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff" ) # Connect to server success = network_manager.connect_to_server("192.168.1.100", 2101) ``` ### Sending Commands ```python from trixy_core.network.cmd import create_wakeword_detection # Create and send wakeword detection cmd = create_wakeword_detection( wakeword_id="trixy", satellite_id="sat_kitchen_001", speaker_id="user123", confidence=0.85, volume=0.7 ) network_manager.send_command(cmd) ``` ## 🔒 Security & Validation ### Message Security - MD5 checksum validation for all messages - Optional encryption support (Fernet symmetric) - MAC address validation for satellite authentication - Session ID tracking for connection security ### Input Validation - Comprehensive command validation with custom exceptions - MAC address format verification - Confidence/volume range validation (0.0-1.0) - Port range validation for network configuration ### Error Handling - Custom exception hierarchy for different error types - Graceful degradation on connection loss - Automatic retry with exponential backoff - Comprehensive logging with pprint() pattern ## 📊 Monitoring & Debugging ### Status Information ```python # Network manager status status = network_manager.get_status() print(f"Active connections: {status['active_connections']}") print(f"Server running: {status['server_running']}") # Connection details connections = server.get_all_connections() for conn_id, info in connections.items(): print(f"Connection {conn_id}: {info['bytes_received']} bytes") ``` ### Performance Metrics -
