Server (bacnet-BacnetServerLayer)

This component represents the server side of the application layer of the BACnet communications stack.

These properties configure how the driver manages messages, such as event (alarm) notifications. Worker components queue and process threads (reads and writes to BACnet) in a running station. At least four frozen Worker slots under a BacnetNetwork manage thread processing. Often, the default configuration of Workers provides good results. However, in some scenarios, configuration changes may improve performance.
